As announced on its corporate website on July 3, 2026, the Company, at the request of Motsu Publishing Co., Ltd., is supporting public relations and promotional activities for 'PARADISE OTEMACHI' (Otemachi, Tokyo), a luxury wellness facility operated by Oguchi Product Research Institute, Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Koji Oguchi; hereinafter 'Oguchi Product Research').
On July 10, 2026, Oguchi Product Research held a completion press conference for media representatives at the facility.
The event featured Koji Oguchi, President and CEO of Oguchi Product Research; Tomoichi Ikezawa, Representative of Total Workout and Wellness Director responsible for the facility’s overall production; and Yuki Saito, who was appointed as 'Wellness Life Ambassador.' Each shared their perspectives on the evolving concept of wellness for modern business professionals.
'The quality of decisions made in Otemachi should be cultivated in Otemachi'
Koji Oguchi, President and CEO, Oguchi Product Research Institute, Inc.
Mr. Oguchi explained the background behind the facility’s creation:
'In Otemachi and Marunouchi—the heart of Japan’s economy—many critical decisions are made every day. The quality of these decisions depends fundamentally on the personal condition of the individuals making them.'
He then introduced the philosophy: 'The quality of decisions made in Otemachi should be cultivated in Otemachi,' aiming to create an environment where business professionals supporting Japan’s economy can maintain their well-being and achieve higher performance.
'PARADISE OTEMACHI' consists of three functional areas: 'GYM' for training, 'SPA' (men-only) for relaxation, and 'THE ROOM,' a workspace for deep thinking.
By enabling 'training,' 'restoring,' and 'creating' in one location, the facility supports comprehensive conditioning that includes not only the body, but also the mind and thought processes.
Tomoichi Ikezawa: 'Restoring oneself is also a proactive choice'

Mr. Ikezawa, who has coached athletes and executives for over 30 years, stated:
'Wellness is not just about physical training. To achieve better performance, it is essential to take proactive action to restore oneself.'
He added, 'Instead of thinking, 'I’m too busy to exercise or rest,' one should actively move their body and seek rest. This facility naturally facilitates a seamless flow of training, resting, and then deepening one’s thoughts.'
He emphasized their dedication to creating an environment where training, rest, and thinking can be efficiently conducted in one place, even within limited time.
Yuki Saito: 'To keep learning, I need time to restore myself'
Yuki Saito
Mr. Saito, appointed as 'Wellness Life Ambassador,' shared how his values have evolved from his playing days to the present.
'As a player, I focused solely on achieving results in baseball and lived a training-centered daily life. But after retirement, as I entered my 30s and continued working, I realized the importance of continuous learning.'
Mr. Saito is now active in various fields, primarily contributing to the baseball community.
'To keep absorbing new knowledge, it is essential to consciously create time to restore myself and think. Resetting my mind in the sauna and then organizing my ideas in a quiet space is extremely valuable to me now.'
Furthermore, he said, 'Rather than being passive, I actively seek learning and restoration. This accumulation leads to new challenges,' sharing his personal experience and the value of wellness.
Restoring both mind and body enhances life performance
During the Q&A session, a question was raised about the differences in conditioning between his playing days and now.
Mr. Saito responded, 'During my playing days, I focused entirely on the next game every day. Now, I consider time to restore not only my body but also my mind and thoughts as part of conditioning.'
He added, 'I feel that restoring both mind and body contributes to improved performance in work and life,' revealing his evolved wellness philosophy after retirement.
Mr. Ikezawa reflected on his relationship with Mr. Oguchi: 'I’ve known Mr. Oguchi for 24 years. When I first heard about this facility’s concept, I thought, 'I definitely want to help realize this together.' I’m glad we were able to materialize the wellness philosophy we’ve cultivated over the years in this space,' expressing his deep commitment to the facility.
