Four-hands massage vs. a regular massage
Both use the same techniques — Swedish, deep tissue, lomi lomi — but doubling the hands changes the experience more than you would expect.
| Four hands | Single therapist | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | 1.7–2× a standard session | Base rate |
| Relaxation | Very fast "switch-off" | Builds gradually |
| Targeted work | Weaker — hard to focus on one knot | Best for injuries and rehab |
| Availability | Needs two free therapists | Easy to book |
Choose four hands when
- You want deep relaxation, not problem-solving.
- It is a treat, a gift or a couples occasion.
- You find it hard to stop thinking during a normal massage.
Choose one therapist when
- You have a specific injury or chronic pain.
- You need firm, sustained pressure in one area.
- Budget matters more than novelty.
