The Knead standard
Every therapist, personally vetted
We'd rather list four brilliant therapists in Reading than forty average ones. Every profile you see has passed the same checks.
DBS-checked
Every therapist is DBS-checked before they join the team - your safety is non-negotiable.
Level 3+ qualified
Recognised massage qualifications as a minimum - many are chartered physiotherapists or sports therapists.
Fully insured
Every treatment is covered by professional liability insurance, whether at your home or their studio.
Vetted by us
We interview every therapist before they go live - qualifications on paper aren't enough on their own.

"James gave me a really good massage – very attentive to my particular areas of tension, rather than just going through the motions."

Quick questions
Your massage questions, answered
Where in Reading will my massage take place?
You can choose to have your massage either at your home or at your therapist's location - each therapist's profile on the map clearly shows which options they offer. For home visits (sometimes called a mobile massage), your therapist brings all the equipment needed for a professional treatment in your own space. Therapist locations range from treatment rooms in clinics and wellness centres to dedicated spaces in their homes; the pin on the map shows exactly where in Reading they're based, and you'll receive the full address and any access instructions in your confirmation email once you book.
Why are the prices different for each therapist?
We believe in giving therapists the freedom to set their own prices based on their experience, location, and the services they offer. This means you can choose the therapist who best fits your needs and budget, with complete transparency.
What qualifications do the therapists have?
All our therapists are qualified to at least Level 3 in massage therapy. Many have additional qualifications and areas of expertise. You can view each therapist's qualifications on their profile for full peace of mind.
What safety procedures do you have in place?
We take safety very seriously. Every therapist is fully insured, DBS checked, and their qualifications are verified before they join our team. We also operate a strict zero-tolerance policy for any inappropriate behaviour from either therapists or clients.
Do I get a full hour of massage?
A 60-minute appointment includes time for changing and any brief consultation your therapist may need. To maximise your hands-on time, we recommend completing your health and personalisation questions in advance, so your therapist can get started promptly.
Do you offer pregnancy massage?
Not at the moment, but it's something we're exploring for the future.
Do I need to create an account to book a massage?
Yes, you'll need to create an account to book. This helps keep both clients and therapists safe. It only takes a couple of minutes, and once done, your preferences and details will be saved to make future bookings even quicker.
Do you offer bulk discounts?
Yes! Book a block of 5 sessions and save 10% off the total. Prices vary slightly by therapist, so your exact saving depends on who you're booked with - just mention it to your therapist or any member of the team and we'll sort it for you.
Which areas of Reading do therapists cover for home visits?
Home-visit therapists cover north Reading and most of the town, and treatment rooms are dotted around Southcote, Lower Earley and Caversham - with most therapists travelling up to 10 miles, taking in Woodley, Wokingham and Bracknell. Pop your postcode into the search at the top of the page and the map will show exactly who covers you.
How much does a massage in Reading cost?
Therapists set their own prices, shown upfront on their profiles - currently from £60 an hour in Reading. There are no hidden fees, and checking availability is free.
How quickly can I get an appointment in Reading?
Often next-day. Every profile shows the therapist's genuine next available slot, so you'll never have to ring around to find out.
