Ask if the therapist holds a current license and where training was completed. Request proof of liability insurance covering on-call or in-home work. Confirm the therapist has experience with your health conditions, such as high blood pressure, recent surgery, or pregnancy. Clarify the cancellation policy, which typically requires 24 hours notice.
A qualified therapist checks in about pressure within the first 5 minutes and adjusts to your tolerance. Bruising lasting more than 24 hours signals excessive pressure. Pain that worsens after the session rather than easing is a red flag. Leaving the table feeling dizzy, nauseous, or unusually cold suggests the session was too intense.
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.
Ask about formal certification, years of hands-on practice, and whether the therapist carries professional liability insurance. Confirm the exact duration, the technique offered, and the total cost including travel. Ask how they screen for medical contraindications and what equipment they bring. Written answers protect both sides.
Red flags include the therapist avoiding a health intake, no hand washing before contact, or excessive pressure causing sharp pain. Watch for slipping on the table, oils left on the floor, and refusal to adjust position. A trained therapist welcomes questions and explains each stroke before applying it.
A licensed massage therapist should hold a state certification and carry professional liability insurance. Sessions usually last 60 or 90 minutes and take place on a portable table the therapist brings. Confirm the therapist has training in the specific technique you want, such as Swedish, deep tissue, or sports massage, before booking.
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.
For chronic neck or back tension, weekly sessions for 4 to 6 weeks usually produce measurable change. For general stress relief, one session every 3 to 4 weeks is common. Athletes in heavy training often book every 2 weeks. Discuss a plan with the therapist after the third visit based on your progress.
A professional massage service is delivered by a certified therapist with formal training in anatomy and technique. Sessions take place at your home using a portable table, bolsters, and clean linens. The therapist should arrive with oils, sanitiser, and a portable speaker if music is needed. Always ask to see a licence or certificate before booking.
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.
