Tipping is a fairly common practice in the massage and bodywork industry. When I made the move from working in a wellness center to having my own wellness practice, I also made the decision to no longer take tips.
Here’s why…
I consider the work I do to be an important part of your regular wellness care. I respect that my clients value what I do enough to be budgeting these treatments into their finances. I want you to know that the price listed on my website is the price you pay, and that’s it.
If you’re compelled to tip because you love what I do so much, that’s awesome and I really appreciate the thought! I would prefer you use that tip money to come in more consistently, or to put towards other aspects of your own personal wellness care.
Instead, consider sending me a note to let me know why you love what I do. I enjoy hearing from you and knowing how my work has helped you. You can also write a review on Google or email me a testimonial that I can use on my website and in other communication.
And please feel free to take some of my business cards and pass them on to your family and friends! I truly appreciate your referrals. It is the best compliment to know you found so much value in our work together that you want to share it with those you care about.
As always, it’s an honor and privilege to work with you!
