  • Yes — and for many clients it's better. You receive the same professional treatment from a qualified therapist with 10+ years of experience, on a professional treatment bed, without the journey to and from a spa. The real advantage comes afterwards: you can rest, sleep or simply relax in your own space while the benefits settle, rather than getting dressed and driving home. Every Ruuby therapist is vetted to deliver the consistency and standard of a five-star spa, wherever you are.

  • A Swedish massage is the most popular and widely recognised massage style — a full-body treatment using long, flowing strokes, kneading and gentle to medium pressure to ease tension, improve circulation and promote deep relaxation. It's an ideal choice if you're new to massage, want to unwind, or prefer a gentler treatment over deep, targeted pressure. Ruuby's Swedish massage is delivered at home by a qualified therapist, in 60, 90 or 120-minute sessions.

  • Both are full-body massages, but they differ in pressure and purpose. A Swedish massage uses lighter, flowing strokes to relax the body and improve circulation — the better choice for unwinding and stress relief. A deep tissue massage works more slowly and firmly, targeting deeper layers of muscle to release chronic tension, knots and tightness — the better choice for muscle pain, stiffness or recovery. If you're unsure which suits you, our concierge can help you decide, or your therapist can adjust pressure on the day.

    Contact concierge team by email at concierge@ruuby.com or WhatsApp on +44 7946 233036 — our team responds within 30 minutes.

  • Lymphatic drainage is a gentle, rhythmic massage that uses light, repetitive strokes to encourage the natural movement of lymph — the fluid that helps remove waste and excess fluid from the body. It's a much lighter treatment than a deep tissue or Swedish massage, and is popular for reducing puffiness and bloating, supporting recovery and leaving you feeling lighter. Sessions are calm and relaxing rather than intense.

  • Both stimulate the lymphatic system, but the technique and feel differ. A manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) massage is very gentle and slow, using soft, rhythmic strokes to encourage lymph flow — therapeutic and deeply relaxing. A Brazilian lymphatic drainage massage is firmer and more vigorous, combining lymphatic techniques with sculpting movements for a more contoured, defined finish alongside the drainage benefits. In short: MLD is the gentler, more therapeutic option; Brazilian is firmer and more sculpting. Our concierge can recommend the right one for you.

    You can contact concierge team by email at concierge@ruuby.com or WhatsApp on +44 7946 233036 — our team responds within 30 minutes.

  • A deep tissue massage uses slow, firm pressure to reach the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. It's designed to release chronic tension, stubborn knots and tightness, making it a popular choice for muscle pain, postural strain and recovery. The pressure is firmer than a Swedish massage, and your therapist will work with you to find the right intensity.

  • It depends on what you're after. Choose a Swedish or aromatherapy massage to relax and de-stress; a deep tissue or sports massage to target muscle tension, knots and recovery; a lymphatic drainage massage to reduce puffiness and feel lighter; a Brazilian lymphatic massage for drainage with a sculpting finish; or a hot stone massage for deep, warming relaxation. If you're still unsure, our concierge can recommend the right treatment, and your therapist can tailor pressure and focus on the day.

    You can contact concierge team by email at concierge@ruuby.com or WhatsApp on +44 7946 233036 — our team responds within 30 minutes.

  • Wear whatever's comfortable — many clients change into loose clothing or a robe beforehand. During the massage you'll undress to your comfort level, and your therapist will use towels to keep you covered and warm throughout, exposing only the area being worked on. Your privacy and comfort come first at all times.

  • Yes. Ruuby offers specialist pregnancy massage delivered by therapists qualified in prenatal treatment, designed to ease the aches, swelling and tension that come with pregnancy. Pregnancy massage is suitable from the second trimester onwards. If you have any pregnancy-related health concerns, we recommend checking with your midwife or doctor beforehand, and always let your therapist know how far along you are when you book.

    If you have further questions relating to pregnancy treatments, contact concierge team by email at concierge@ruuby.com or WhatsApp on +44 7946 233036 — our team responds within 30 minutes.

  • Many of our massage therapists are available same-day, often within 60 to 90 minutes.

    Ruuby operates 7 days a week, 365 days a year, from 6am until late, including weekends, evenings, bank holidays and last-minute bookings.

  • Most modalities are available in 60-minute, 90-minute and 120-minute formats, with 90-minute sessions consistently rated higher for full-body release. We also offer a 30-minute Back, Neck & Shoulder massage for focused, targeted relief — ideal for desk-based tension, post-flight stiffness and quick recovery sessions between meetings. Session lengths are shown on each treatment tile.

  • Your Ruuby massage therapist arrives fully equipped — including a professional treatment bed, oils and all products. You simply need to provide your own towels and a clear, comfortable space; a bedroom or living room works perfectly. Full preparation guidance is sent with your booking confirmation.

  • Every Ruuby therapist is hand-selected through a rigorous vetting process. We verify credentials, insurance and experience, then assess their work in person before they join the platform. Our massage therapists hold qualifications in their specific modality (Sports, Deep Tissue, Pregnancy, Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage etc.) and are trusted by thousands of clients across the UK.

  • Absolutely. You can save favourite therapists in the Ruuby app and re-book them in a single tap. We know how important continuity is — particularly for massage and wellness, where therapist familiarity with your body's tension patterns compounds the value of every session.

  • Yes. Ruuby coordinates simultaneous massages for two people in the same property — ideal for couples, friends or family. Both therapists arrive at the same time with their own treatment beds, so you can enjoy your massage side by side or in separate rooms. Book each massage individually for the same address and time slot, or contact our concierge and we'll coordinate it for you.

    You can contact concierge team by email at concierge@ruuby.com or WhatsApp on +44 7946 233036 — our team responds within 30 minutes.
