Everything you need to know before you book
Once you have a service in mind — even a tentative one — same-day booking is available for all nine services. The fastest path is WhatsApp: send your hotel or address, the service you are leaning toward, your preferred duration, and start time. We confirm within 30 minutes. If you are still genuinely unsure, message us with your situation (how your body feels, what you want out of the session) and we will suggest the right service before dispatching. Changing your mind after booking is easy as long as you message at least 30 minutes before the therapist departs.
Foot massage, head and shoulder, and Thai massage are the easiest to arrange at short notice — clothed, no equipment wait, therapist ready in under 5 minutes. Aromatherapy and hot stone require 2–3 hours notice (oil selection, stone heating unit). Shiatsu and cupping sit in the middle — available same-day with 2 hours lead time. If you are deciding on the day, the clothed services give the most flexibility. For an evening session, booking by 5 PM maximises therapist availability regardless of service.
All nine services work the same way operationally: the therapist comes to your hotel room, guesthouse, or apartment. Setup takes 2–10 minutes depending on the service. Sessions run the full booked duration. No prepayment is required — cash settles directly with the therapist after the session ends. The therapist brings oils and any service-specific equipment — mat, stones, or cups as required by the service. You do not need to find or set up anything. This is equally true whether you book a 60-minute foot massage or a 120-minute aromatherapy session.
“Completely new to massage. Messaged via WhatsApp to ask which to start with and got a clear, no-pressure recommendation. Booked the aromatherapy they suggested. Perfect first experience. Worked my way through the other types over the next month. Now I have clear preferences.”
