About Massage
Standard session length and how it affects results
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.
How to give clear feedback during the session
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.
Health conditions that require caution
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.
Main massage techniques available at home
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.
Warning signs of poor technique or unsafe practice
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.
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.
