Most home therapists accept cash, bank transfer, or card through a mobile reader. Tipping is appreciated but not mandatory, with 10 to 15 percent being standard when service exceeds expectations. Pay only after the session, and request a digital receipt that lists the technique, duration, and date for your records.
Deep tissue pressure is not recommended within 72 hours of acute injury or muscle strain. Clients on blood thinners should avoid strong pressure due to bruising risk. Recent surgery sites need clearance from the surgeon, usually after stitches are out and swelling is gone. Always share your full medical history with the therapist.
Common at-home techniques include Swedish for relaxation, deep tissue for muscle knots, sports massage for athletes, and lymphatic drainage for swelling. Prenatal massage is available for pregnant clients, and trigger point work targets specific tight bands. Each method uses different pressure levels and hand positions, so clarify your goal when booking.
For chronic neck or back tension, 1 session every 2 weeks works well for the first 2 months, then monthly. For sports recovery, a session within 48 hours after heavy training helps. General wellness clients often book once a month. Pain relief usually appears after 3 to 4 sessions, not after one.
A 60 minute session includes roughly 50 minutes of hands-on work and 10 minutes for consultation and dressing time. A 90 minute session allows 80 minutes of massage and covers a larger body area or deeper work. Allow an extra 15 minutes at the end for a slow transition before standing or driving.
Speak up if pressure is too deep or too light within the first 10 minutes. Point to the exact area needing more attention instead of describing pain vaguely. Tell the therapist if the room is too cold or the music too loud. Good therapists welcome real time feedback and adjust without taking it personally.
Clients with recent surgery, deep vein thrombosis, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or active cancer should get written approval from a doctor before booking. Pregnancy beyond the first trimester needs a prenatal specialist. Open wounds, severe osteoporosis, and recent fractures also need caution and a modified technique.
Reserve a quiet room of at least 8 square meters with room for the table plus 1 meter clearance on every side. Lower the room temperature to between 22 and 24 degrees Celsius before the session. Silence phones, dim lights, and remove pets. A nearby sink allows the therapist to wash hands before and after the appointment.
The therapist should bring fresh linens for each client and wash hands before and after the session. Tables need intact vinyl or leather covering without tears. Oils should come in sealed containers and be unscented or lightly scented. A clean face cradle cover is mandatory and replaced for every appointment.
A typical home session lasts 50 to 90 minutes, with 60 minutes being the most common. Shorter 30-minute sessions focus on one body area, while 90-minute sessions cover full body plus extra stretching. First appointments often run 15 minutes longer due to the intake interview and posture assessment.
