How long should an Amsterdam massage be? Four lengths, and one simple way to choose
The length is the third line of every booking message, and it is the line most guests hesitate over. Every profile lists four lengths, plus the overnight. This page explains what each length is for, and gives one simple rule for choosing.
The lengths on every profile
Every profile lists one hour, ninety minutes, two hours and three hours. It also lists the figure for one more hour, and the overnight, which is a block of eight hours on its own line. Write one of those lengths in your message. An in-between length makes the reply ask you again, and that costs a message.
What each length is for
One hour is a full session, not a sample. It suits a guest who is short of time, or one who simply wants to try. Ninety minutes is the length many guests pick, because the start and the end feel less rushed. Two hours leaves room to talk, to shower without hurry and to keep a slow pace. Three hours is for a long evening, and it suits the slow techniques, such as tantra.
One rule for when you are unsure
If you cannot decide, write ninety minutes. It is long enough to relax and short enough to keep the rest of your evening. If ninety minutes turns out to be more than you needed, you had time to lie still at the end. If one hour turns out to be too little, the evening is already over by the time you notice.
Arriving and settling are part of it
Every length includes the start of the visit. She arrives, says hello and tells you her limits. You may take a shower. Then the massage begins. In a short booking that start is a large share of the time, which is one more reason to prefer ninety minutes to a single hour when your evening allows it.
Some techniques need more time
A few techniques sit badly inside one hour. Nuru needs time for the gel and for the shower afterwards, so ninety minutes suits it. Tantra follows the breath, and ninety minutes is the shortest booking for it. Four hands means two women moving in step, which takes a moment to set up. The techniques page lists each one with its own note on length.
Length and the deposit
Three hours or more always has a deposit, whoever you are and whatever the date: half of the total goes ahead before she sets out. So does the overnight. The shorter lengths follow the ordinary rules, which are written out with examples on the deposit page.
