How much tip to leave at a spa?
Since tips are standard protocol for a private masseuse, you should assume a 20 percent tip in any massage or spa treatment situation (unless a self-employed therapist specifically tells you their rate is all-inclusive). The standard hospitality rate for massage tipping is 20 percent. For example, if a massage or body treatment costs $100, a 20 percent tip would be $20.In general, tipping norms suggest leaving 15% to 20% of the service cost as a gratuity. This range is standard across many wellness centers and spas. However, personal experiences and service quality can affect this baseline. For instance, if you receive exceptional care, consider tipping towards the higher end.
