We do not publish a menu. We publish durations, districts and rates, and each therapist decides for herself what her session includes.
Two therapists in one room is not one booking doubled. It is a second hour bought inside the first, and almost everything that makes it work happens before either of them reaches your door.
The roster is forty-five women, and each of them decides for herself which bookings she takes, a booking beside a particular colleague included. Two therapists who have never met can both be very good at the work and still spend the first quarter of an hour negotiating the room: who takes which side, who sets the pace, who speaks. When the two names you choose have worked together before, the reply says so, and when they are strangers to one another it says that too, before you confirm rather than after.
We are outcall and only outcall. There is no studio, no reception, no second room down a corridor where one of you waits while the other is seen. Your hotel room or your apartment is the room, which means the two of you are never split across two spaces or two appointments an hour apart. The roster covers the districts inside the ring, where forty to sixty minutes from the confirmation to the knock is a realistic figure, with both therapists arriving together. The Schiphol airport hotels are by arrangement, and the journey time is agreed with you before anything is fixed.
Two hours run in parallel: they start together and they end together, and neither of you is left lying still listening to the other being worked on. Beyond that, symmetry is not the point. Most couples want different things at the same time, and two therapists is the only arrangement that lets you have them without one of you waiting politely. Nobody keeps the pair in step for the sake of the picture.
Bookings run from a single hour to an eight-hour overnight. Someone on the roster is free at every hour of the week, and the figure for the two of you on each profile does not move between three in the afternoon and three in the morning.
For a long time the couples writing to us were buying the same thing twice. Two separate appointments an hour apart in the same room, because that was the shape the enquiry gave them. One of them was worked on while the other sat in the corridor or went out for a coffee, and then they swapped over. It worked, in the sense that both of them got their hour. It was also very nearly the opposite of what either had pictured when they first mentioned the idea to each other.
So the pairing was lifted out and given its own place to live. Everything here assumes there are two of you: the rates are printed in pairs, the guides argue both halves of a decision instead of recommending one, and the first question in any thread is how many therapists rather than which technique. That is the entire difference between this and any other outcall arrangement in the city, and it turns out to be most of the difference that matters.
Each therapist reads a booking before she decides whether to take it, and what helps her decide is plain: the room and roughly how much floor is in it, what each of you would like from the hour, which of you is doing the writing, and anything you want to say about nerves. The last of those matters more than you would expect. Two people almost never arrive at an evening like this in the same state, and a therapist who already knows which side of the room is the hesitant one does not spend her first twenty minutes working it out.
Nothing is added to what you wrote, and three lines are never turned into a character sketch. A slightly longer first message is the easiest single thing you can do for the evening, and it is the only thing asked of you before it begins.
Not the ones people guess at. The heaviest stretch for couples runs from ten at night to one in the morning, which is dinner ending and a decision being taken in a room rather than a plan made earlier in the week. The second heaviest is Sunday afternoon, and that is almost always somebody with a flight the next day. Three in the morning is quieter, and the figure there is the figure at noon, which suits couples, because the hour a pair makes up its mind is very rarely an office one.
Short notice is ordinary and longer notice is welcome. A few hours widens the field of who is free rather than speeding anything up, and a dated evening such as an anniversary is worth putting in the thread days ahead, less for the availability than for the two names.
No studio, no reception and no address, which is covered further up. Past that: no booking fee, no charge for choosing two names together, and a deposit that is half the fee rather than a figure invented per evening, with what a cancellation costs set by the notice you give. No package, no membership and no ladder of discounts, since the only things that move a total are the length, the number of therapists and whether one of you or both of you is receiving. No photographs of a room, from either side. And no menu of extras bolted onto the hour, because the figure in each therapist's rates table already contains everything the two sessions need.
Both of you, and anyone else in the room, have to be twenty-one or over, and a therapist who cannot satisfy herself of that leaves before the session starts.
