[quote=Anonymous]Normal tip average range in nyc is $15-20 for a 1hr booked session with a professional therapist. $10-15 for 45/30 min service. You can always add more depending if your experience was met to your needs. Please also add alittle more for deep tissue or hot stone massage since it is very hard on the therapist's themselves applying pressure or heat or spending alil more time then your real appt session. You might not agree with everything I say in this forum and that is okay. I'm not trying to overprice gratuities, since yet again it all depends on the individual's choice But beaware that there are a lot of well experienced therapist that don't have their own private practices and yet don't get a hourly rate pay like most workers do. Therapist mostly only get paid for what they get booked and yet they get taxed off from paycheck and cash tips by the end of the year of course as any other workers. Some francises pay the L.MT.only12-14 dollars for a booked hour session (xpress, envy, hand&stone) and they also don't get paid for training days or on shift*cleaning laundry etc . Sometimes therapists don't get credits for all their hard effort and schooling. They pay a lot of money for school and continuing education courses, cpr training renewal, 3 years state license renewal, and massage insurance every year. In the long run they use up the body to help other bodies over well being. Just be considerate sometimes. This applies to every labor job that make money of from tips. [/quote]
