What is a Mobile Massage Therapy
A mobile massage therapy is simply a massage therapist who comes to your home and provides therapeutic massage in the comfort of your own house.
It often happens that we do not have much time to go to a stationary massage studio somewhere in the middle of the city. This is because you do not have your own transport or due to health or age we cannot leave the house. It would be helpful to make an appointment with a therapist who has a mobile massage service, i.e. can come to you.
Benefits of mobile massage therapy
Booking a home massage treatment has many advantages, including:
- Comfort level. You don’t have to leave the house, the massage therapist will come to you.
- You don’t have to think about the massage devices, the therapist has everything behind him.
- Dates are often more accessible. You can book morning, afternoon or evening sessions during the week or weekend.
- Convenient. You don’t have to waste your time getting ready, or waiting in lines.
- Cheaper. You don’t have to spend money on transport, petrol and parking tickets
- Stress-free. You don’t have to worry if we’ll be able to get to the appointment on time.
- You are able to relax more as the treatment takes place in our home privacy.
- Immediately after the massage, you can sit in your own comfortable armchairs, without thinking about the way back and traffic jams.

What to expect during treatments at your own home?
The massage therapist arrives with a professional massage table, massage oil bottles, freshly clean linen, special disposable table pads and disinfection of medical equipment.
After a few minutes of conversation, he will begin to set up the massage bed in the room/space provided.
If you have special house rules you wish the massage therapists to follow let him know. He will respect your advice.
Your room should be spacious enough to fit the massage bed and the therapist moving around it. We always suggest heating the room up a little before the treatment.
When all pieces of equipment unwind and all is ready to start, the therapist will leave the room to give you privacy to lie down and relax your body.
When booking a massage, you should add an additional dozen or so minutes to prepare the masseur – unfolding/assembling the table, and during the first visit, another 10 minutes for a short conversation about the session and how you feel.
First-time clients
Usually, the first visit of the therapist at the client’s home begins with a few-minute conversation about the state of health and possible contraindications. Then we decide on the type of massage together.
How to get ready for your home massage session?
To maximise the benefits of your treatment after a long day and to minimise the stress and tensions I highly recommend following a few steps:
- If you are using Mobile Massage Glasgow services for the first time prepare your medical documentation if you have any medical conditions, e.g. X-ray, ultrasound, descriptions (if you have one)
- Dress comfortably
- Give up heavy food 1.5 hours before the massage
- Remove all jewellery and watches
- Before the therapist arrives take a warm, relaxing shower or bath to relax your muscles.
- Find a moment of relaxation and tranquillity
- Take care of the right temperature in the room, you might consider heating the room slightly up
- Prepare a space for the massage table to ensure free access to it for you and the massage therapist (table dimensions 200×70)
- Turn on your favourite music if you want.
Is it worth getting a massage?
Definitely many people find massage to be a great treat way to relax and thus loosen up muscle pain.
There is no doubt that a massage is a good way to feel better, especially when you are stressed. Let’s not forget, however, that it also has a relaxing effect on our bodies. This is a procedure that really has a very large impact on our entire body. Therefore, it can affect not only our physical but also our mental health.
