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 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.
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.
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.
Price varies with session length, therapist experience, and technique. Add-ons like hot stones, aromatherapy oils, or cupping add to the base rate. Travel fees of 10 to 25 dollars often apply beyond a 15 kilometer radius. Evening or weekend appointments can carry a 15 to 20 percent surcharge over weekday rates.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
