Seventeen words that turn up in a booking thread, from outcall to erotic oil, each explained so a first message from your hotel room reads clearly on both sides.
Outcall means the therapist travels to the client, to a hotel room or a private address, instead of the client visiting a studio or salon.
Incall is the arrangement where the client travels to the provider's own premises; this house offers no incall of any kind.
In-room describes a session delivered inside the client's own hotel room or apartment, the setting every booking with this house takes place in.
An overnight is the eight-hour booking, one fixed fee for one client with one therapist and more for couples or two therapists, always confirmed with half the fee in advance.
The duration ladder is the house's fixed list of booking lengths, from a single hour for one client with one therapist up to the overnight a couple books with two.
The balance on arrival is the part of the fee still owed once any deposit is paid, settled in person when the therapist reaches the room.
The deposit is half the fee, paid before the therapist sets out on most bookings, and it counts toward the fee rather than sitting on top of it.
What a cancellation costs depends on the notice given: nothing more than 24 hours ahead, half the deposit inside 24 hours, the whole deposit once the therapist has set out.
A false booking is one placed under someone else's name or number, or as a joke; the house keeps a short internal note for twelve months and may report it to the police.
The arrival window is the forty to sixty minutes between a confirmed booking and the therapist reaching any central Amsterdam address.
A WhatsApp booking is a reservation made and confirmed in writing through a WhatsApp thread with the office, which normally replies within about ten minutes.
The age gate is the confirmation on entering this site; bookings are accepted only from people who are twenty-one or over, and every therapist listed is twenty-one or over.
Nuru is a Japanese-origin technique performed with a clear, slick gel, booked at this house under the same ladder as every other technique.
Tantra is a slow, breath-led technique drawn from Indian tradition; lingam and yoni are its named variants for a male and a female client.
Body-to-body is the broad name for full-contact techniques performed with oil, and is the family that nuru and soapy belong to.
Four-hand means one client and two therapists working together, charged on the single-client, two-therapist row at double the one-therapist hour.
Sensual and erotic oil are the menu names for slow, atmosphere-led massage, the first defined by mood and the second by its warmed oil.
