Great! I'll be visiting in October so I'll contact you on line closer to the time  

[zephin]

Always enjoyed a good massage by Kenji, can be painful at some points, but that's what makes it effective. He alternates between comforting pressure and effective pressure XD

 

And on top of that, he's a nice guy, definitely not the weird type.

 

Highly recommend Kenji

Thank you so much for the wonderful review. Definitely painful at times to ease off your tight muscle tensions but not to the extent that will hurt the body. My belief is if muscle tensions are still there after a massage, that is not a professional one. Comforting at times will relax your body and when you are in that state, tensions will gradually go away, so my technique is a good mix to best eliminate that tight muscle. Weird is subjective but am glad you find me nice and "normal" lol

Benefits of Massage Therapy for Muscle Growth

Your ability to crush your workouts, burn calories, and build muscle, is directly tied to how well you recover from the previous days training session. What’s more is that each of us have a finite amount we can recover. And, to top it off, each of us have a slightly different recovery rate than another person.

What impacts recovery?

Just about everything.

Your genetics, age, training history, injury history, workout intensity, workout frequency, sleep, stress levels, protein intake, and whether you’re in a calorie surplus (bulking) or calorie deficit (cutting) all impact how well and how quickly you recover from your workouts.

 For example, someone who is in a calorie surplus, sleeps eight hours per night and is in their mid 20s will generally recover a lot faster than a 30-something who’s stressed all the time, dieting, and sleeping 4-5 hours per night.

But, what if you’re already doing everything we listed above to ensure proper recovery, but you’re still feeling beat down from one workout to the next and not really seeing the results you’d like to?

Well, you could try some active recovery protocols like stretching, foam rolling, hiking, or yoga. But sometimes, these active recovery methods actually dig further into our recovery capacity, especially if we’re not familiar with them.

There is, however, one form of recovery, that is incredibly restorative on the body, and the best part is that you don’t even have to lift a finger. Yet, it will enhance your performance in the gym as well as your muscle growth!

What recovery method is this?

Massage therapy.

Here we discuss five big benefits of massage therapy for muscle growth.

Enhances Flexibility

To get the most out of each exercise you perform in your workouts, you should be using a full range of motion. In order to achieve that full range of motion, you need to have a certain amount of flexibility.

However, from a combination of years of hard training coupled with the sedentary nature of most jobs these days, many of us are sorely lacking the flexibility department.

Moreover, training with higher volumes and heavier weights also can lead to the development of increased muscle tightness, adhesions (muscle, fascia, and other tissues “sticking” together, and scar tissue. Each of these reduces your flexibility, limits the amount of muscle growth you can get from an exercise, and increases your risk of injury.

Massage therapy helps relax and stretch the muscle fibers, thereby improving your flexibility.[6]

Furthermore, massage therapy can also help rub out any tightness imbalances you may have between opposing muscle groups. For instance, we’ve all seen the lifter at the gym who walks around hunched over like quasimodo.

One of the reasons for this is due to overly tight pecs and lats, and underdeveloped rhomboids. Massage therapy can help undo these imbalances, find relief, and improve posture.

Helps Relieve Pain

Any type of physically demanding workout, whether it be a high volume, heavy weight resistance-training workout or an all day endurance-based one (such as a triathlon), is sure to leave your muscles sore, achy, and in dire need of recovery.

If we’re still in pain from our previous workout heading into our next bout of training or competition, the odds that we will perform our best are slim to none.

You see, aches and pains can be a very distracting thing, and it can even make us a bit timid in how we approach our training for fear that we might exacerbate whatever muscle or joint ails us.

The beauty of massage therapy is that it can help relieve those aches and pains, enabling us to perform to our fullest.

Remember, pain is a message to the body that something is wrong. Massaging can help iron out the kinks, so that you can perform pain free and keep making PRs.

Accelerates Recovery

Remember up top, when we said that each of us has a very limited capacity to recover from our training?

Well, getting a massage can help reduce tension in the body, both mentally and physically, which helps accelerate recovery. In fact, studies have shown that massage therapy may help alleviate delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) by approximately 30%, and it may also help reduce swelling following exercise.[3]

Furthermore, massages can also be incredibly relaxing, which helps decrease cortisol and anxiety levels[1], which fosters quicker recovery.

And, as you’re probably aware, the more quickly and better that you recover, the more frequently you’ll be able to train, and the greater volume and intensity with which you can train.

This ultimately leads to greater results from your workout program, be it fat loss, muscle gain, or body recomposition.

Enhances Sleep Quality

Getting enough quality sleep each night is essential to recovery, fat loss, and muscle growth. There’s no two ways about it.

Research has shown that getting a massage can improve both sleep quality and duration.[2]

Why is this important for muscle growth?

Because it is when we sleep that the body is awash in recovery-boosting and muscle-building hormones like Growth Hormone.[4,5]

Also, remember that massages help relieve tension in the body, both mentally and physically. Very often if we’re overly tense in our muscles or troubled by our thoughts, we have difficulty sleeping.

Massage therapy helps relieve tension, allowing for a deeper, longer, and more restorative sleep that supports subsequent workout performance and muscle growth.

Improves Circulation

Blood is the “life force” of the body. It carries all of the essential nutrients our bodies require -- oxygen, glucose, amino acids, etc. -- to not only build and repair muscle tissue but to carry out the basic functions of life.

The more efficiently your heart to pump blood, and the more effectively your cardiovascular network can supply these life-sustaining nutrients to your muscles, the more quickly they can begin their repair, recovery, and growth mechanisms after training.

It just so happens that there is some research indicating that massage therapy can improve circulation and reduce muscle soreness. In fact, getting a massage after training may even enhance blood flow throughout the body for up to 72 hours post-exercise![7]

And, massage therapy may also help lower blood pressure, a key marker of proper circulation and cardiovascular health.

Takeaway

When it comes to recovering from training and building bigger, stronger muscles, things like stretching, foam rolling, and sauna bathing are always recommended. And, don’t get us wrong, then can certainly help your results.

But, massage therapy also has some unique benefits to offer for recovery and muscle growth. Next time, you’re feeling sore, achy, and a bit too beat up from your intense workout, try giving massage therapy a try. It might just be the “secret weapon” you’ve been looking for to enhance your muscle growth.

Finally had a session with Kenji after months of outstation for work. His new place is much better than the Orchard one, stone throw from Braddell MRT Station, yet hidden in a quiet spot. Place nicely done up and very clean. Kenji as usual that good looking, toned fit muscle boy, friendly and approachable.

His technique is superb. He knew exactly where are all my tension points and loosen them. I slept so well yesterday night, have not had such a good rest for a long while.

 

He is indeed a massage therapist that is doing his job well.

 

Thanks Kenji, will be back again.

Kenji stopped doing massage at Ming Arcade since May 2019, ever since he started his home-based service near Braddell MRT station.  

 

I have engaged him for several years already and he has been a professional therapist.  He takes time to warm up to you (and really, who doesn't ), but after a few appointments, he will make it a point to engage in good conversation.  

 

Kenji is a therapist that I will certainly continue to support in the years to come.  The reviews that are posted in this forum will attest to his skill as a therapist and his good attitude as well.  

 

Jiayou Kenji!

 

Edited February 5, 2020 by jl254

[daisuke]

Strange, Kenji doesn't operate at the Ming Arcade outlet since the middle of last year. He is now only operating on home-based service, so you probably met another masseur.

 

Kenji is a professional masseur, and he is a courteous and accommodating person. The massage Kenji gives can be painful at times, this is true, but that happens when you need to loosen those tight muscles. Kenji will check in with you to see if it is too painful, like when I gave signals like ouch and he will relieve some pressure. 

His massage are definitely great, one that I will continually visit, leaving you refreshed and more flexible than before.

 

He will make clear of additional charges before hand, even before you arrive for his massage.

 

As mentioned, he is professional, there is no hanky panky after the massage. Grabbing your rod and the overall experience you get does not sound like him at all.  Kenji makes sure that you are comfortable during the massage.

 

I have been visiting Kenji for years, each time, it is good if not, better than the last.

 

[babyboy88]

Ming Arcade outlet has stop the massage service since September 2019. All the therapist who once operates these has either stop complete, do an outcall or found their own place to do massage. Even the outlet has remove all the traces of the massage in their website.

[G_M]

Kenji pm me that he had stopped his service since May last year. 

Therefore I will remove the fake report by @raymond12345 and lock this thread. 

[Kenjimassage]

Dear All,

 

I am still in operation in my home base at Braddell.

 

Thank you all for the great support shown.

[xiaocalx]

I have visited Kenji for a few sessions already, started with him at Ming Arcade. Left with a good impression because of the uniqueness of the chamomile oil, slept damn well. Although Kenji didn't liked using that oil haha.

 

I still enjoyed it when he was conducting the massage in Bradell. A couple of months back, Kenji has switched the oil to a thinner oil now, and it didn't induce the sleepiness which I hoped it would, although Kenji mentioned it's healthier for the skin since it does not clog the pores that much. Nonetheless Kenji is always ready to serve and gives me a cup of apple cider vinegar drink whenever I go for his session. Now that Covid-19 lockdown has happened, it's gonna be some time before I visit him again

thanks for the good rub down for my twisted neck! stay healthy and take care during this covid season

His location is stated in the thread, you can see from the above messages.

He does not provide prostate massage, so you won't find it here

[daisuke]

It is a long time since I last visited Kenji for a massage.

Knowing that he does give hard massages, where at times it can be painful to release the knots in your muscles,
I was at first a bit afraid of that I may have lost the tolerance for the pain when I return to him.

Luckily, he is a very good masseur that helps me ease back up my tolerance.
And knowing that it maybe painful, he is just as skillful as ever in easing away the pain and getting you relaxing after releasing the knots.
Trust me, once he released those deep knots or tightness, you are going to feel great and loosen up.
That night, I slept really well ☺️

He is still one of the best masseurs, where he is able to tell which part of my body needs more attention.

Thanks again, Kenji!
Looking forward to the next visit, will come back sooner this time
