Tipping Etiquette: What to Know When Visiting a Wellness Spa

💆‍♀️ Understanding Tipping at Shinning Spa 💆‍♂️
Your Guide to Showing Appreciation After a Great Massage

At Shinning Spa in Daytona Beach, we believe every visit is more than just relaxation—it’s a step toward balance, wellness, and feeling your best. After your massage or spa service, you may find yourself wondering:

“Should I leave a tip? And how much is appropriate?”

Here’s a simple guide to help you feel confident about tipping in the wellness space.


Why Tipping Matters

In personal care industries like massage and spa services, tipping is a heartfelt way to recognize the skill, care, and energy your therapist puts into your experience. It’s more than money—it’s your way of saying “Thank you for helping me feel better.”


Is It Expected?

Tipping is always optional, but it is a common and deeply appreciated gesture—especially when your experience exceeds expectations.


How Much Is Typical?

✔️ 15%–20% of the service total is the standard range
✔️ 25% or more is a generous way to acknowledge exceptional care
✔️ Using a gift card? Consider tipping based on the original value of the service


What About Cash vs. Card?

💵 Cash tips are often preferred, as they go directly to your therapist
💳 Many guests also add gratuity to card payments—just ask the front desk how it works


When to Consider Tipping More

You might want to tip a little extra if:

✨ Your session was particularly long or therapeutic
✨ Your therapist personalized the service to your needs
✨ You’re a regular and want to show continued appreciation
✨ You visited during weekends, holidays, or busy hours


A Personal Gesture of Gratitude

Your massage therapist puts care, training, and energy into helping you feel your best. If you walk out feeling lighter, looser, or simply more at ease, a kind word and a thoughtful tip go a long way.
