What Affects the Cost of a Body Massage?
Several factors affect the price of your body massage. Some of them are discussed below.
Session Length
Longer sessions cost more overall but less per minute. Our 60-minute relaxing full body massage works out at 75p a minute, compared with £1 a minute for 30 minutes. That’s double the time for just £15 more.
Type of Massage
Deep tissue and hot stone treatments usually cost a little more than a relaxing massage. Deep tissue work is more physically demanding, and hot stones need extra preparation.
Where You Book
Hotel spas price in their setting and branded products. Sports and physio clinics charge for specialist assessment. Independent therapists and smaller spas tend to give you the most massage time for your money.
