Welcome to Harai Massage Therapy Amsterdam
My name is Paul te Bokkel. In my practice for massage therapy, holistic massage, and Rolfing® Structural Integration in Amsterdam City Centre, I combine gentle touch in a safe and inclusive environment with an analytical approach; problems often lie elsewhere than where you feel the pain..
Reasons why people visit me:
- pain complaints (acute and chronic), for example pain in the neck and shoulders or lower back pain
- letting go of tension and stress or a holistic relaxation massage
- more body awareness and working on patterns and posture
Not sure which massage to book? Read more about the different types of massage on the page. Which massage do I need??.
All massages are custom-made and arranged in consultation..
I provide professional, therapeutic body-oriented care. Therefore, no erotic massage. Massage is not a substitute for medical care. See also the general terms and conditions.
Paul te Bokkel
After completing the holistic massage therapist training, I continued with the massage therapist training and subsequently the Rolfing® Structural Integration training..
You can come to me for pain complaints, (jointly) exploring body-related complaints and patterns, and (naturally) relaxation massage..
In 2026, I will complete my training as a Rolfer at the European Rolfing Association. I am a professional member of the International Association of Structural Integrators..
Inclusivity and safety are important values in my practice..

What customers say
Emotions live in the body. Without attention, they can lead to physical complaints..
Massage therapy has an impact on your entire system.
In massage therapy, the therapist and client work together to explore a physical complaint or issue. If possible, this is relieved or eliminated..
