How the index works
Each month we check every published listing on Manila Touch and take its lowest listed massage price between ₱250 and ₱5,000 as its starting price. The median is the middle starting price; the typical range is the middle half of listings (25th to 75th percentile). R18 listings are excluded. Home & Hotel Service prices usually include the therapist travelling to you. Prices are what businesses publish and can change, so always confirm when you book.
