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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
