Today, let’s discuss the differences between “Fuzoku” and “Non-Fuzoku” establishments. At first glance, they may appear similar, but there are significant legal and operational differences.
Fuzoku establishments operate under the Fuzoku Business Law, providing “sexual services.” On the other hand, non-Fuzoku establishments do not offer sexual services but instead focus on relaxation and massage services.
Fuzoku Establishments: Provide sexual services such as full-body massages with erotic elements, soaplands, and escort services.
Non-Fuzoku Establishments: Offer only relaxation and massage services with no sexual components.
Fuzoku businesses often use explicit language and visuals related to sexual services on their websites and advertisements. In contrast, non-Fuzoku businesses emphasize terms like “relaxation salon” or “massage studio,” clearly avoiding any sexual connotations.
