Tipping????

[debi65]

My massage therapist' business is having a fund raising event. For 15 dollars we can get a 15 minute massage. The money raised goes to charity. How do I tip the massage therapist and would this be an appropriate situation to tip? This therapist owns the business and I typically don't tip for regular massages. How much should I tip for a 15 minute session?<br><br>Thanks.<br><br><br><br>

I guess my question is more:  do I tip the massage therapist (personally)  for their time and effort?  Since the therapist isn't getting any money should I tip them in addition to paying for my 15 minutes?  Make sense?

ok sorry.    I just wanted to make sure I do the right thing.  Sometimes I'm not very good at expressing myself so I wnated to make sure my question was clear!

The therapists goal is not to make money for him/herself, but for the charity. I agree with Pete, most likely any tipping would be given to the charity.  How thoughtful of you to be thinking of the therapist though.
