The short answer
In Perth in 2026, professional corporate seated massage costs $100 per hour plus GST for standard office visits, with a two-hour minimum booking. For most small to medium teams, that means a visit costs between $220 and $550 including GST.
Mine site and FIFO visits are $130 per hour plus GST, and bookings outside business hours — before 8am, after 5pm, or on weekends — are $150 per hour plus GST.
That’s it. No packages to decode, no “contact us for pricing.” Below, we’ll show you exactly how those rates translate to your team size, what a regular program costs per month, and how corporate massage compares with other wellness spending.

How corporate massage pricing works
Corporate massage is priced by the hour, not per person. Here’s why that matters when you’re budgeting.
A therapist can deliver about four 15-minute seated massages per hour. So the calculation is simple:
Number of staff × minutes per person = total massage time, rounded up to the nearest half hour, with a two-hour minimum per visit. Ten staff at 15 minutes each is 150 minutes of massage – 2.5 hours on site. At $100 per hour, that visit is $250 plus GST, or $275 all up.
Most workplaces choose 10, 15 or 20 minutes per person. Fifteen minutes is the sweet spot: long enough to properly work the neck, shoulders and back, short enough that people are away from their desk for less time than a coffee run.
What a visit costs: real examples
All prices below are for standard office visits during business hours, including GST.
| Team size | Minutes each | Time on site | Total (inc GST) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 staff | 15 min | 2 hours | $220 |
| 10 staff | 15 min | 2.5 hours | $275 |
| 12 staff | 20 min | 4 hours | $440 |
| 20 staff | 15 min | 5 hours | $550 |
| 30 staff | 10 min | 5 hours | $550 |
| 50 staff | 15 min | 12.5 hours | $1,375 |
For larger teams, we bring multiple therapists so the visit fits inside a workday. The total hours (and price) stay the same, but 50 staff can be looked after in a morning rather than a day and a half.
Per person, that works out to $11–$37 per employee per visit or less than most team lunches, and nobody has to leave the building.
What changes the price?
A few things move the numbers, and we’d rather you knew them upfront:
Mine sites and FIFO locations: $130/hr + GST.
Remote and site work involves inductions, site safety compliance and longer days, and the rate reflects that. A minimum two-hour mine site visit is $286 including GST. We’re one of the few Perth providers who regularly service mine sites — travel for regional and remote work is quoted individually depending on location.
Before 8am, after 5pm, and weekends: $150/hr + GST.
Early starts for shift handovers, evening functions and weekend events are all available at the after-hours rate.
Paid parking: $40 + GST per day.
If your building or site has no free parking option for our therapists, we pass the daily fee through at a flat rate.
Nothing else. Massage chairs, setup, equipment and travel within the Perth metro area are included in the hourly rate.
What a regular program costs per month
One-off visits are great for events and busy periods, but the workplaces that see real change in staff wellbeing book a regular rhythm. Here’s what a program for a 10-person team (15 minutes each, $275 per visit) costs:
| Frequency | Approx. monthly cost (inc GST) |
|---|---|
| Weekly | ~$1,190 |
| Fortnightly | ~$600 |
| Monthly | $275 |
For context, that weekly program costs about $120 per employee per month, which is comparable to a mid-range gym subsidy, except with near-100% uptake.
In our experience almost nobody skips their massage slot.
How does that compare to other wellness spending?
Hiring an in-house massage therapist means a salary north of $70,000 plus super, insurance and a dedicated space. That only stacks up for very large campuses. A visiting service gives you the same benefit for exactly the hours you need.
Wellness apps and EAP top-ups typically run $5–$15 per employee per month. They’re inexpensive, but engagement is notoriously low because an app notification is easy to swipe away. A therapist standing in the break room is not, and the benefit is felt immediately and physically.
One-off perks such as; lunches, vouchers, event days – are appreciated but forgotten in a week. A recurring massage program is the perk staff mention to their friends, and one of the few that directly addresses the physical toll of desk and site work: neck and shoulder tension, headaches, and stress.
Is corporate massage tax deductible?
For many businesses, workplace wellness spending can be a legitimate business expense, but Fringe Benefits Tax treatment depends on how a program is structured. It’s a genuinely useful conversation to have with your accountant before you book a large program and it’s a question we’re asked often enough that we’re writing a full guide on it. The short version: don’t assume either way; ask your accountant, and we’re happy to provide whatever documentation they need.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a minimum booking?
Yes, two hours per visit. That covers a team of up to eight people at 15 minutes each.
Do your prices include GST?
Our rates are quoted ex-GST ($100/hr office, $130/hr mine site, $150/hr after-hours) and we’ve shown all worked examples inclusive of GST so there are no surprises on the invoice.
How much space do you need?
About two square metres per therapist or a corner of a meeting room . . . or break area is perfect. We bring the massage chairs and everything else.
Do staff need to undress or use oils?
No. Seated massage is done fully clothed, with no oils, through your normal work clothes.
How far ahead should we book?
A week’s notice usually works for office visits. Two weeks will make it easier for us. Mine site visits need longer for site access and inductions so two or even three weeks is safer.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our therapists are qualified and fully insured, and we can supply insurance certificates for your procurement team on request.
