What is a proper amount to tip a massage therapist for the holidays?

You should tip at least 15 - 20 percent. Stiffing your therapist on a holiday is the worst kind of rude. If you show up late and don't get your full time on a busy day like valentines day, that is your own fault. If you get a gift certificate and the tip is not included, that is also no reason to not tip. Massage therapists like waiters depend on tips as part of their payment.


How much do you tip after a professional massage?

20% hands down... Massage therapists work so hard! My sister is one, and it puts a lot of stress on her body and hands. Think about when you give a massage, how quickly do you get tired, and how much physical work it actually takes. They are using their own muscles over and over again, to make your body feel good. I have seen other comments that they get paid an hourly wage too... Yes, some do, but some don't, and it's very minimal. I would say $20/hour is common courtesy. An hour massage can range from $60-$150+ depending on where your massage is given.. (spa more expensive and they most likely get paid higher hourly) If you are receiving a massage from a spa, well then adjust tip according to the way you feel. If its $150/an hour massage, I would at least give $20 minimum, but if it was all that and more, 20%.. $30 tip is well deserved. To work so hard, physically on other people, even if an hour massage only cost $60 initially, you don't know what they make hourly, and 20% of 60 is $12 tip. $12 after I just put my hard work into make you feel relaxed for an hour!?!.. Is like handing them a few quarters and saying thanks. But for someone massaging me for a whole hour, deserves at least $20. Even if the massage cost $60 dollars, they are not receiving that $60 dollars unless they are doing massages in their own home, then I would say give 20%.... because it's mainly all profit for them. Adjust tip based on their performance, but speak up!!! If they are not hitting the area you want them too, or if something hurts, tell them, and they will adjust it to your liking. Before deciding to decrease their tip, I would at least make sure that you have spoken up, and if they still could not tailor to your needs, adjust appropriately.


How much to leave for a massage?

Unlike eating out in restaurants where it's customary to tip your server, there is no established rule for offering a tip or gratuity to your massage therapist, nor is there any expectation of one -- at least in a monetary sense. A gratuity is a sign of appreciation that goes beyond paying for services rendered. If you are particularly happy with your massage and it achieved its aims -- relaxation, pain relief, etc. -- then you might offer any amount over the therapist's fee that seems to you reflective of the level of your appreciation. For a standard $60, hour-long massage, for instance, anything from $5 to $20 would surely be welcome by your therapist. But again, it's never mandatory.


What is tipping etiquette for massage therapist who comes to your house?

If the therapist does not charge an outcall fee I would say 20$/hr is an appropriate tip. I they do charge an outcall fee tip at least 20%. It really just depends on what the client feels the session is worth.

Do you tip for a massage at a medical spa?

Medical estheticians and massage therapists are trained above and beyond regular estheticians, provide their clients with the utmost in technology and safety, yet do not receive appreciably higher pay. When you are tipping your esthetician or masseuse, you ARE NOT tipping a physician because you are not receiving a physician's service, for which you would pay a consult fee instead. It is proper etiquette to tip an esthetician or masseuse, whether in a doctor's office, medispa, or regular spa.
