About Massage
How to prepare the room before the therapist arrives
Choose a quiet room with at least 2 metres by 3 metres of clear floor space for the table. Close windows and turn off loud devices 10 to 15 minutes before arrival. Set room temperature between 22 and 25 degrees Celsius. Provide two clean towels, access to a sink, and a low stool if available.
Hygiene and equipment standards to expect
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.
How long a standard session takes
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.
Payment methods and tipping norms
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.
What usually changes the final price
Price varies with session length, technique difficulty, and therapist experience. Deep tissue and sports massage usually cost more than Swedish. Late evening slots, weekends, and travel distance beyond 15 kilometres often add a surcharge. Couples sessions booked at the same address may receive a small discount per person.
What a professional massage session includes
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.
Recognising poor technique or bad practice
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.
How to prepare the space before arrival
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.
Recommended frequency for lasting results
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.
Key questions to ask before you hire
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.
