How much do you pay for a full body massage?
Mommyhadadiva asked:
I am a massage therapist. I do one hour full body massages and I have the option of going to the person’s house or they come to mine and I can massage them in my zen room. I only charge $30 for a massage and I know that is really cheap. If you get massages how much do you spend on them? If you don’t get massages how much would you spend on one?

Most massage therapists charge at 45-60 bucks an hour.

Typical rates for LMT/CMTs in most urban areas I’ve lived in start at $1/min and get to $1.50/min for spas. This is for office practices. A home practice would have to charge less (probably $45/hr.).
IMO, have a first visit special of $45, a $60 one-time rate, and $45 for multiple visit packages).

In my opinion, if you don’t charge $1 per minute, you are cheating yourself. It is not just the time you are being paid for, but also your training.

Depends on the length of time.
1/2 hour - roughly $30.00.
Hour - $60.00

60 for an hour. sometimes they run specials around valentines day or something for like 45$$

The going rate is $60 an hour. Sometimes people will give a discount if x number of massages are paid in advance. For example, you can charge $500 for 10 massages. If you are good, raise your rates to $60!

I charge $70 an hour. Not everyone is willing to pay that kind of money once a week, but that’s OK. I only need 16 people a week willing to pay that kind of cash.

The old expression, “you get what you pay for”, holds true. If a client see you charge $30, and the see a high end massage at $80, I would look for someone in between. Charge $60 and pass out alot of 1/2 off coupons. It gives credibility to your services, plus the client is happy because they think theyre getting a bargain. The more continuing ed you have the more you should charge.
