Overview

Welcome to any member of the LGBTQ+ family!

I’m a seasoned gay massage therapist with 9 years of expertise in bodywork, based in the picturesque DUMBO neighborhood of Brooklyn.

My holistic approach combines traditional and modern techniques, drawing inspiration from my background as a visual artist and my passion for music. During sessions, I synchronize applied pressure strokes with the rhythm and flow of the music, tailoring each experience to meet your specific needs.

Nestled in my studio, you...’ll enjoy the added comfort of great mood lighting and a heated table. Whether you’re seeking a soothing Swedish massage or a robust Deep Tissue treatment, I bring the same energy to promote your healing and total relaxation.

I love what I do, and I know it transpires into my work. I invite you to surrender to my hands and let me take you to a place from where you’ll come back feeling like a new person.

Testimonials

Gathered by Kenzo from admiring massage clients to share with you.

Feb. 01, 2024 in New York, NY (in-studio)

My time with Kenzo was fantastic. He is able to seamlessly integrate the therapeutic massage with the artistic, leaving you fulfilled in all senses of the word. I found him to be very attentive and thorough. Nothing about the experience felt rushed.

Kenzo is incredibly friendly, easy to coordinate an appointment with, and very handsome. I understand why his ratings are as high as they are and am happy to recommend him. I will definitely book another bodywork appointment soon.

I have had the very good fortune to see Kenzo in his professional massage studio on each of my recent trips to the US. He is an outstanding masseur, very talented, totally charming and has a personality that fully engages you from the first moment of meeting. His technique, strength, skills, and intuitive touch are off the charts and I had an incredible experience each time I met with him.

I had an exceptional experience with Kenzo. His professionalism was evident from the moment I walked into his beautiful studio with an artistic and comfortable atmosphere that put me at ease. The pressure he applied during the massage was perfect, focusing my tension points with skill and precision. His home and ambiance were simply beautiful, providing a serene backdrop to the session. The choice of music and great lighting added to the relaxation, and by the end, I felt rejuvenated, as if I were a completely new person. I can't wait to book another session and experience his expertise again.

I saw Kenzo in late June when in NYC on a trip. I had not seen him for three years. He is as good (or better) than my past history with him - gifted is the word that comes to mind.

Prior to 2020 I was in New York on a regular basis and saw him many times over a five year period. From my first moment on his table I knew he was highly skilled, sensitive to body aches, and highly accomplished at providing unhurried, relaxing massages blending therapeutic elements. The added benefit is that each massage session from my experience with him progressed differently. It means the experience is "fresh" from one session to another. Believe him when he says he offers healing....I know. And he has a great personality to match...Our time together was like my most recent massage had been within the past month meaning he knew the right pressure, strokes, and pace.

Logistically, he is highly responsive for setting up appointments, reliable, and his current set up in his DUMBO apartment is a soothing environment.

As someone who has seen several providers on this website he ranks among the very best.

I highly recommend him.

Jan. 30, 2023 in Brooklyn, NY (in-studio)

I usually see Kenzo when he's in Boston, but this time around, I had business in NYC, so I saw him there. As always, a very relaxing time with a truly gifted masseur, who is also a warm, kind man.

Kenzo always seems to know exactly what my body needs massage-wise. My packed schedule in NY left me really stressed out, but my time with Kenzo fixed all that.

Kenzo never rushes through a session. I feel relaxed, refreshed, and renewed each time I see him, and this time was no exception.

Highly recommend!

Nov. 15, 2022 in New York, NY (in-studio)

The massage was great (as expected) and the heated table and ambiance lighting were the cherry on top. I can’t wait to be back in New York for another Kenzo treatment.

Sept. 29, 2022 in New York, NY (in-studio)

I was fortunate to schedule a massage with Kenzo after he returned to NYC from a short stay out of town. He is many things- warm, friendly, gracious. Perhaps most importantly, he is very effective as a massage therapist. He inquired about my preference for depth of tissue work and he was able to meet the tension that I carry in certain areas (neck, lower back, glutes) with strength and thoroughness. I remarked to him a couple of days after my massage that I was still feeling the effects of the work in the areas he had worked hardest to release. To me, that is the mark of an excellent massage therapist.

The ambience was quite cozy- gentle music, soft lighting, and a table that supported both of us, as Kenzo worked on me. Kenzo is not a clock-watcher and he was generous with his time and talent. A post-massage shower capped the session and left me feeling renewed and ready to greet the day again.

Kenzo is a keeper. He travels quite often and I recommend scheduling in advance, to be sure to see him. I look forward to another session soon.

Kenzo is the ultimate masseur. He knows the body so well and digs deep to create a relaxation that is heavenly. Beyond a wonderful masseur, he has a wonderful vibe and energy. He is fully present and makes you feel like you are the only man he's ever w massaged. Kenzo is kind, polite and extremely knowledgable about what he does. I can't recommend him enough. I'll definitely see Kenzo again.

April 13, 2022 in Philadelphia, PA (in-studio)

Kenzo was by far and away the best therapeutic massage I ever experienced. He put a great deal of energy into his service with the perfect balance of firm pressure and creative motion. The beneficial effects were durable for days. His relaxing demeanor, courtesy and rocking bod topped off a most Capital and memorable experience. I recommend him without reservation!!!

Jan. 18, 2022 in Philadelphia, PA (in-studio)

Kenzo will be who you compare any future massage against. He goes slow and takes the time to get to know your full body. Highly recommend. He’s truly talented.

Nov. 17, 2021 in Boston, MA (in-studio)

Simply FANTASTIC!

It was very simple to set up an appointment for a massage with Kenzo. He replied very quickly and in a few minutes he shared his availability with me. I couldn’t make it to any of the suggested times and he offered to accommodate around my schedule and ended up accepting to see me very early this morning before going to work.
Talk about a good way to begin my day! I had to come back to the site and leave a review for this hugely talented masseur.

Pressure: deep tissue (one of the best bodywork experiences I’ve had)
Ambiance: beautiful room, his choice of music was perfect, and the roam was toasty and cozy (thank you for that)
The guy: tall dark and handsome, charm for days, his vibe is warm and familiar, a presence like I haven’t experienced before.

Feb. 25, 2020 in Philadelphia, PA (in-studio)

I am writing this review about my experience with Kenzo. I had a 60 minute massage at his hotel when he was visiting Philly. His room was very clean and welcoming. He greeted me warmly, making me feel as if I had known him for a long time.

Kenzo knew how to hit all the right spots with the right amount of pressure. I did not want the massage to end. It was clear that he is trained and knows how to make his clients feel very good.

Kenzo is highly recommended. Five stars!

I guess I can call myself a part of the Kenzo Fan club for a while now. I am happy to see he is on Masseur Finder again.
I write this review after having yet another amazing massage while in Washington DC.
As usual, the whole experience was perfect from beginning to end. Very strong intuitive hands and an amazing personality to boot.
