Which guest–therapist combinations can be requested?
Ritual does not assign meaning to a practitioner preference. Some guests choose by comfort, cultural familiarity, massage style, strength, privacy or simple personal preference. The relevant question is whether the requested practitioner and massage format are available together.
Woman with a male therapist
Male-to-female massage can be requested for the available massage formats. Confirmation depends on the practitioner, date and location.
Man with a female therapist
Female-to-male massage can be requested for classic, therapeutic, sensory and private formats, subject to the available team.
Man with a male therapist
Male-to-male massage is available by request. Name both the massage type and therapist preference so the inquiry is answered precisely.
Couples and shared appointments
Ask for two female practitioners, two male practitioners or a mixed team. Also confirm whether the treatment is parallel, sequential or arranged as separate private sessions.
How to state the preference without ambiguity
Name the guest
Say whether the appointment is for a woman, man, couple or another number of guests.
Name the practitioner preference
Use plain language: male therapist, female therapist, two female therapists, two male therapists or mixed team.
Name the massage
A practitioner may be available without offering every specialist massage. Include the exact treatment or atmosphere you want.
Wait for confirmation
A request is not an assignment. Ritual confirms the practitioner, treatment, time, location and full price before booking.
The same comfort rules apply to every combination
Gender does not replace a conversation about pressure, coverage, clothing, draping or boundaries. Discuss those points before starting and ask for an adjustment, pause or stop whenever necessary.
For a hotel or villa visit, confirm property access and choose a private space where the appointment will not be interrupted. The guest–therapist combination and any requested format remain confidential booking details.
