治疗后交费有小费一栏,总觉得餐馆,出租车,搬家等要给小费,治病也要给吗?多少和适啊?
First, make sure you know this: Most massage therapists do NOT make the full amount of the massage, they usually make a percentage of it, which even then can vary a lot. They might even make less than that depending on the things they have to pay for (rent for the space, supplies, etc). I know MT's who make less than minimum wage when its averaged out. The majority of them also pay their own taxes meaning even if she got $20 dollars for each massage she would actually only MAKE $16. Also realize that Massage therapists can not work 8 hours a day, like most people work in other less physical jobs.
Tipping is really your own preference when it comes to an amount. If you feel they did a great job, then give them a little more than you would have originally. If they did poorly, give them a very small one (if it was awful then dont feel like you need to tip at all).
I have clients who tip all the time, some who tip occasionally, and some who never do, all ranging from $0-$40 for an hour ($50 is what i charge for an hour). The average amount I get tipped is $10 for an hour. But again, any tip is going to make them feel appreciated for their hard work and it is up to you to decide what it was worth.
