A massage in your hotel room in Rio: how it works
What I bring, what happens at reception, how much space I need, and the full price list — with travel already included.

You send me a WhatsApp message with the address, the day and what is bothering you. I reply with the times I have free, and once you confirm I arrive on the agreed day with the table, the sheets, the towels and the oils. The session happens in your room, at the time you picked, with no trip for you and no waiting room.
The front desk
I also come to hotels and holiday apartments in the Zona Sul — the front desk just needs to be told in advance. In practice that is one sentence to reception, or to the person managing the building, saying that a massage therapist is expected for you. Some buildings ask for a name and a document number, some ask for nothing at all. Tell me when you book and I bring what is needed.
Hours are the same as anywhere else: 9am to 8pm.
Session of 60 to 90 min
Copacabana, Ipanema, Leblon, Barra and Centro
Travel: included

Massage for older people is R$ 280. Therapeutic stretching and sports massage last 30 minutes and come as an add-on inside another session. Cupping works the same way: on its own I do not do it.
Cash or Pix. A 50% deposit confirms the appointment; the rest is paid at the end of the session. Let me know at least 12 hours ahead and we reschedule. After that, or with no notice at all, the 50% deposit covers the time that was held for you. If I am the one who has to cancel, you get the deposit back.
