Swedish massage uses long gliding strokes and light to medium pressure for relaxation. Deep tissue applies slower strokes with firm pressure reaching the 3 to 5 mm muscle layers. Sports massage focuses on overused muscle groups before or after activity. Prenatal massage uses side-lying positioning and modified pressure for pregnant clients.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Expect freshly laundered sheets for each client, sealed oils, and a sanitised table surface. The therapist should wash hands in front of you and use hypoallergenic products on request. Portable tables must have intact foam padding, no torn vinyl, and stable legs. Tools like hot stones need a dedicated steriliser.
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.
