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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Tipping between 15 and 20 percent of the session price is standard when service is good. Some therapists include travel time in the bill and pay the same hourly rate. Ask whether payment is by card, cash, or app before the appointment. A written receipt with license number helps for insurance reimbursement if covered.
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.
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.
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.
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.
