Relaxing Massage in Amsterdam: A Slow Session Where You Are Staying

The simplest definition of a relaxing massage in Amsterdam is the one our guests give us: no travel, no reception desk, no waiting room, and no need to get dressed and walk home afterwards. The session comes to your hotel room, and when it ends you are already where you want to be.

That setting does a great deal of the work. A spa asks you to relax in a public building on its timetable. A hotel room is private, warm if you make it warm, and yours for as long as you have booked. Our therapists are used to arriving in rooms of every size, from a compact canal-house room to a large suite, and they adapt the session to the space.

We offer slow, close formats: sensual oil massage, tantra, nuru, body to body, four hands with two therapists, and sessions for couples. Every one of them is designed for calm and closeness rather than correction.

We do not offer Swedish massage, deep tissue work, Thai massage, sports massage or any treatment aimed at an injury. None of our therapists present themselves as physiotherapists. If a guest writes asking for deep tissue work on a painful shoulder, we suggest a clinic. If a guest writes asking for an unhurried hour to let go of a long day, we are exactly the right place. The services page describes each format we do offer.

For a pure unwinding session, the sensual oil massage is the most requested choice: warm oil, long strokes and a pace set entirely by how you respond. Tantra is slower still, with attention to breathing, and many guests describe it as the most calming hour of their trip.

Guests who prefer something warmer and closer usually choose nuru or body to body. Both are relaxing, but in a more immersive way. If you are not sure, start with sensual oil for a first evening; almost every guest finds it easy to settle into.

Small preparations make a noticeable difference. Raise the room temperature a few degrees about twenty minutes before the arrival time. Switch off the ceiling light and use a bedside lamp. Silence your phone, or at least turn the screen down. Put the do-not-disturb sign on the door.

The therapist brings linen, towels, oil and, if you like, quiet music. You do not need to tidy the room, but moving a suitcase from beside the bed helps. If you have just arrived from the airport, take a warm shower first; it starts the process before she even knocks.

For one guest with one therapist, one hour costs 180 euros, ninety minutes 270, two hours 360 and three hours 540. For relaxation specifically, ninety minutes is the length we recommend most often, because the first part of any session is spent leaving the day behind, and a sixty-minute booking ends just as that has happened.

The overnight, eight hours at 1,250 euros, is the deepest form of relaxation we offer and is booked most by guests on a special trip. Every rate, including couples and two-therapist bookings, is on each therapist profile.

A relaxing session means something slightly different depending on the hour. In the afternoon, between a morning of sightseeing and an evening out, the aim is to recover without losing the rest of the day. One hour or ninety minutes works well, with a short rest and a shower before dinner. Guests often say they walk out afterwards noticing the city more, because they are no longer tired.

At night, the aim is sleep. A session that ends at eleven or midnight, in a dark room with the do-not-disturb sign on the door, leads straight into the deepest sleep of the trip. For that reason, night-time guests often choose a slightly longer booking and ask the therapist to finish very slowly. She will pack quietly and let herself out while you stay exactly where you are.

If your trip includes both kinds of day, some guests book one of each: an afternoon hour after the museums, and a longer session on the last night. The after midnight page covers the very late version.

Write to the WhatsApp thread with the time, your hotel area and the length. Confirmation arrives in about ten minutes and the therapist reaches any central address forty to sixty minutes after setting out, at any hour of the day or night.

A first booking with us is confirmed with half the fee, as is any booking made more than twenty-four hours ahead, any session of three hours or longer, the overnight and any two-therapist booking. That half is sent by card, Revolut, Wise or crypto. A returning guest booking a same-day session of one or two hours pays in full on arrival. The balance is always paid in the room, in cash, by card or in crypto, and every guest must be at least twenty-one.
