Massage clients know what they want: a deep tissue massage, an hour, ideally after work or at the weekend. What frustrates them is having to message and wait to find out whether a time exists.
Velvet Lead builds your massage clinic a website where those clients find your treatments and book straight away. Each length is its own treatment with the right clean-up time, every therapist has their own schedule, and reminders go out before confirmed appointments.
Where massage clinics lose bookings
“Do you have a 90 minute on Sunday?”
Clients ask on Instagram or WhatsApp, a therapist replies between sessions hours later, and by then the client has booked somewhere else.
No time to change the table
When a 60 minute massage is booked straight after another, there is no gap for fresh linen, a drink of water or a short rest. Therapists start late and tired.
Everyone asks for the same therapist
Regulars want their favorite therapist, while newer team members have open hours. Without a clear way to show both options, the popular diary overflows and others sit empty.
How Velvet Lead helps
How Velvet Lead handles a massage diary
Set up with your menu of massages, your therapists and your hours, then it runs every day.
Each length is its own treatment
List a 30, 60 and 90 minute massage as separate treatments, each with its own price and duration. Clients only see times long enough for the massage they chose.
Online booking: how it worksClean-up time between clients
Add a clean-up time to each treatment, so a longer hot stone massage can carry a longer reset than a short back and shoulders. Availability includes it automatically.
Online booking: how it worksTheir therapist, or anyone available
Clients can choose a named therapist or pick “anyone available” to see every open time across the team. Two clients can never be booked into the same slot with the same therapist.
Admin panel: how it worksQuestions answered while you work
The AI assistant answers from your treatment menu, prices, offers and FAQs, and shows real free times with a link to book. The client confirms the booking themselves.
AI assistant: how it worksReminders that keep up with changes
Clients get an email reminder before confirmed appointments, and WhatsApp reminders if they opt in. Move an appointment and the old reminder is dropped.

AI assistant
What massage clients ask the assistant
Replies come from your menu, prices, therapist profiles, offers and documents you upload. Questions it can't answer are logged for your team.
- “What's the difference between Swedish and deep tissue massage?”
- “Do you have a 90 minute massage free this Sunday?”
- “Can I ask for a female therapist?”
- “How much is a 30 minute back and shoulder massage?”
- “Is there parking near the clinic?”
- “Is it OK to have a massage while I'm pregnant?”
Demo clinic assistant
Answers from the clinic's own information
- Patient:
Anything for a 90 minute deep tissue on Sunday afternoon?
- Assistant:
There are 90 minute deep tissue times free on Sunday afternoon. Pick one, then choose your therapist and confirm on the booking page.
- 1:00 PM
- 2:30 PM
- 4:00 PM
- Patient:
I'm 20 weeks pregnant. Is deep tissue safe?
- Assistant:
That's a question for your doctor or midwife and the clinic, so I can't advise on it. I can request a callback from the team so they can talk it through with you.
Settings
Settings massage clinics usually choose
Chosen with you at setup, then applied across your website and booking flow.
- Staff title
Therapist
Clients see “therapist” on profiles and in the booking steps, matching how your team introduces themselves.
- Confirmation mode
Instant confirmation
Clients booking a relaxing hour usually want certainty straight away. Manual confirmation is there if you'd rather review requests.
- Clean-up time
Set per treatment
Longer or oil-heavy treatments can have more reset time than short ones, and nobody has to remember it.
- Minimum notice
Your choice, for example two hours
Late bookings still come in, without a therapist being caught off guard between clients.
- Promotions
Promo codes with start and end dates
Run a quiet-weekday offer that switches itself on and off, and see which enquiries it brought.
Filling quieter hours
Your reports show appointments, cancellations and no-shows by day, therapist and treatment. If Tuesdays are always light, you can see it clearly and try a dated promotion for those days.
Enquiries from the website, chatbot, Instagram DMs and walk-ins all go into the lead inbox with their source, so you know whether an offer post actually brought new clients through the door.
For clinics in the USA and Pakistan
In Pakistan, prices appear in PKR and WhatsApp confirmations reach clients who opt in when they book. In the USA, prices appear in USD and times follow your local time zone, including daylight saving time. The website is in English in both markets.
Clinics like yours
Massage often sits alongside other hands-on or wellness treatments. See how we approach physiotherapy clinics and acupuncture clinics, or med spas that include massage on a wider menu.

FAQ
Massage therapy: common questions
Can we offer 30, 60 and 90 minute versions of a massage?
Yes. Set each length up as its own treatment with its own price, duration and clean-up time. Clients pick the one they want and see only times that fit.
Can clients choose a specific therapist?
Yes. Clients choose from the therapists who perform that treatment, or pick “anyone available” to see all open times.
Can we sell gift vouchers or massage packages?
Not online yet. There are no online payments, so vouchers and packages can't be bought on the website. You can describe them on your site and take payment at the clinic.
Will the chatbot give advice on health conditions?
No. It answers from your own information about treatments, prices and hours. Questions about pregnancy, medication or health conditions are pointed to the clinic, with a callback request offered.
Can clients cancel without calling?
Yes. Every booking includes a private manage link, and clients can cancel within your cancellation window. The freed time becomes bookable again.
