How much does a mobile massage cost in Los Angeles?
Mobile massage in Los Angeles starts from $119 for 60 minutes with Blys, before a 10% processing fee. The rate depends on the massage type, running from $119 for Thai up to $149 for hot stone. Travel, a massage table, towels or sheets, oil and music are included. Peak times and parking can add more.
The figure most services advertise is a starting rate. What you actually pay depends on the type you book, the hour you book it, and whether your street has free parking. This page sets out all three.
What actually determines the price
Four things move the number, and only the first is the one people compare.
- The massage type. A 60 minute session ranges from $119 to $149 depending on which modality you book.
- The duration. 60, 75, 90 and 120 minutes are the standard options, and the per-minute rate improves as the session gets longer.
- The hour and the day. Early mornings, evenings and weekends carry surcharges.
- Where you are. Parking availability and whether you are in a hotel both change the total.
A quoted starting rate tells you about the first factor only. The tables below cover all four.

How these prices were checked
Every figure on this page was read off a live Blys page on 27 August 2026, not carried over from an older version. Four rules were applied.
- Base rates come from the US pricing page, not from a city page. A city page shows a single “from” figure, which is the cheapest tier rather than the price of any named type.
- Every price states its currency. These are US dollars.
- Surcharges are listed in full, not summarised. A starting rate with the surcharges left out is not a price.
- Nothing is compared against another company’s advertised rate. Rival prices on city pages vary by where the visitor is browsing from, so a like-for-like comparison is not available.
What mobile massage includes
A therapist travels to your home, hotel or office and brings everything the session needs. You provide the space and Blys brings the rest.
- Travel to your address
- A massage table
- Towels or sheets
- Oil
- Music
- The massage itself, from a professional local therapist
There is no separate call-out charge and nothing to hire. Blys describes itself as a mobile massage, beauty and wellness platform, and the therapists are independent providers rather than employees.
1. Thai and Reflexology, from $119
The entry tier, and the figure quoted as the Los Angeles starting price. Thai massage combines stretching, pulling and rocking to relax tight muscles, release tension and relieve joints. Blys asks you to wear free-flowing clothing that does not restrict movement, so it is less about lying still than being moved through positions.
Best for a back or hips that feel locked up rather than tender. $119 for 60 minutes, $169 for 90.
2. The $129 tier, six modalities
The widest tier and the one most people book. It covers Remedial Deep Tissue, Swedish Relaxation, Seated Chair, Trigger Point, Myofascial and Lomi Lomi.
Deep tissue is the firmest of these, described by Blys as a strong treatment for muscles that are damaged, knotted, tense or immobile. Swedish relaxation is the gentlest, aimed at stress and sore muscles. Trigger point and myofascial sit between them and are used as part of a fuller remedial session.
$129 for 60 minutes, $161.50 for 75, $184 for 90, $239 for 120.
3. Specialist modalities, from $139
Prenatal, Sports, Aromatherapy, Lymphatic Drainage, Cupping, Medical and Oncology. These carry their own protocols and training, which is what separates them from the tier below.
Sports massage is built around performance and faster recovery, for people in regular physical activity. Prenatal has its own positioning and pressure requirements. $139 for 60 minutes, $199 for 90.
4. Hot Stone and Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage, from $149
The top tier. Both require equipment or technique the other tiers do not.
$149 for 60 minutes, $186.50 for 75, $214 for 90, $279 for 120.
How to choose a tier
- Start with the problem, not the price. The $30 gap between the entry and top tiers is smaller than the cost of booking the wrong modality twice.
- Match pressure to tolerance. Deep tissue and trigger point work can feel intense in short stretches. If that is not what you want, Swedish relaxation sits in the same tier at the same price.
- Book 90 minutes if the area is large. The per-minute rate improves and a full back and shoulders session rarely fits comfortably in 60.
- Check the hour before you check the type. An evening booking adds more to the total than moving up a whole tier does.
- Tell the therapist what you want before they start. Every modality above is adjustable in the room.
Every surcharge, in full
Blys charges more at peak times and when a provider has to pay for parking. These are the additional fees published for the US.
| Additional fee type | Fee | When it applies in Los Angeles |
|---|---|---|
| Processing fee | 10% of total booking | Every booking |
| No parking or metered street parking for provider | $20 per provider | Common in Santa Monica, Venice and much of the Westside |
| Hotels and serviced apartments | $30 per hour, per provider | Any hotel booking |
| Bookings between 6am and 9am | $30 per hour, per provider | Early sessions before work |
| Bookings between 6pm and 9pm | $30 per hour, per provider | The most requested window |
| Bookings between 9pm and 12am | $60 per hour, per provider | Late sessions |
| Bookings on a Saturday or Sunday | $20 per provider | Either weekend day |
Worked example. A 60 minute deep tissue massage in Los Angeles on a Saturday evening runs $129 base, plus $30 for the 6pm to 9pm band, plus $20 for the weekend, plus the 10% processing fee. The same massage on a Tuesday at 2pm with free parking outside is $129 plus the processing fee.
The parking row is the one you control, and it is worth understanding before you book. Blys asks you to pick a parking option for your address, and what you choose decides what you pay.
| What you select at booking | What it costs |
|---|---|
| Street parking, free | Nothing, as long as there really is free parking |
| Street parking, metered | $20 added to the total |
| No parking | $20 added to the total |
Here is the part that is not in any fee table. If you select free street parking and your provider then has to pay to park, they can add the parking cost to your booking as an extra charge, and it is applied to your card automatically. So it pays to be honest about your street when you book rather than optimistic.
In Los Angeles that matters more than in most cities. If you are in Santa Monica, Venice or much of the Westside, metered is the realistic answer.
Where Blys fits, and where it does not
Blys suits a booking where the travel is the problem. You are not driving across town at 6pm and paying to park at the other end, and the rate already covers the therapist coming to you. Availability in Los Angeles is listed as 7 days, 6am to midnight, with bookings taken same day or in advance.
It suits you less well in three cases, and they are worth saying plainly. If your street has no free parking, you are selecting metered or no parking every time and $20 goes on every booking. If you want the cheapest possible hour of massage in Los Angeles, a walk-in studio will beat these rates. And if you need to cancel late, the terms are strict: inside 4 hours of the start time, the fee is 100% of the total.
