I've always done escort before sometimes with Massage included, but I've just had some tummy tuck and I can't do full service with few more weeks. I wanted to know what pattern the people who do Massage only usually follow probably do hand job and or without at the end.

I did massage with hj ending for a few years, it's hard going on your hands,back and feet. I was always busy but the downsides were you're limited to what you can earn a day as no one is leaving early and it's knackering. Always loads of washing cause of the oil and constant showers

I went through the same thought process a couple of years ago. I'd had enough of providing paid for sex - I was getting thrush and a long backstory of STIs and pregnancy/terminations. On top of that, i was getting an ick feeling of being so physically close to clients I did not want to be. I tried massage with HJ but I was not good at it and got bad feedback and lost all my regulars. It was hard work for low pay.
I then saw a profile of someone I worked with years ago and she was doing a voyeur experience and had lots of positive reviews. I contacted her and we did some sessions together with a few of her regulars (just solo action where the client watches). I moved away and started voyeur service on my own. Basically, it involves me masturbating and showing off my body whilst the client masturbates (no touching). My prices are about 60% of full sex competitors and close to full sex prices if I do HJ, but I have plenty of regulars,,, mostly nice older and clean guys. No STI risk and no STI risk for clients which many tell me is a reason for picking my service. Some have also told me that their guilt factor from having sex with a stranger is less and that is why they enjoy it more than paid for full sex. I have recently taken things to another level with my male partner and we offer voyeur service for clients to watch us have full sex whilst they masturbate. This also has extra opertunities such as HJ. This is popular even though we only offer it at weekends and times to suit us. Again, older guys like this.

I offer GFE & massage services.

Massage is tough on your body, if you’re not used to it. It takes a few weeks to adjust. I’ve had major abdominal surgery and there’s no way I would have been able to do massage.

I would just offer very basic services until you have healed. You could maybe do pre paid private videos/chat and offer short HJ bookings.

I've been thinking and puzzling over this idea that massage is hard on your body—because I haven't found that at all. I'm wondering if it is due to the technique or having a massage table at the correct height.

And then I remembered - mostly I only do 1 a day/ 7 a week! 

I can easily manage 2 clients in a day, but I have occasionally done 3, and that is really tough, and I wouldn't normally do that. Now, it's not difficult on my body - I am doing a fairly gentle massage. I'm not physically working hard. It is mentally tiring. I allocate 2 hours per client, so 3 clients is a 6-7 hour day (with a break and clearing up). I don't want to work that long!

I started out on the basis that I would aim for 1 person a day, priced accordingly, and then packaged it in such a way to make that sound appealing. So, each client pays about what I would have charged for a FS GFE.

Years ago, I used to go for regular massages. I remember being on holiday in a hotel and going for a massage that was 3 or 4 times as much as I would normally pay—I couldn't believe the price. But I was treated so well in lovely surroundings, so that is what I aim for. And I learnt that there are people in this country who expect to pay a lot more for things than the average person, those are the customers I'm aiming for.

***

I never considered doing short sessions or cheap sessions as that is too much work. And the cost of cleaning up and laundry would eat into profits, so I'm deliberately expensive.
If I charged less I'd see more men, but I doubt if I'd make more profit.


My mindset is:
* my time is what is worth the money.
* each client takes the same amount of effort so I may as well restrict it to few clients who stay a long time rather than lots of short-term cheapskates that still require the same amount of laundry/clean up and emotional energy from me.

NOTE: I can do a 90-—to 2-hour professional massage. I do know how to do this, and I would warn you all that it can cause real harm if you don't know what you are doing. My  tip do not massage legs with varicose veins.

Be sure you can deal with things, which is just the same for anyone in this work:
I've had incontinent clients - mentioned in other threads.
I've had someone have a stroke in my premises!
I've had numerous people take to me about their suicide attempts and generally pour their hearts out about grief and things that are quite distressing.
