In English, “masseur” typically refers to a male massage therapist, while “masseuse” refers to a female massage therapist. The distinction is based on gender, with “masseur” being masculine and “masseuse” being feminine.

There are many names for a massage therapist that comes to your home or office like Mobile massage, In home massage, or traveling massage therapists.

The term masseuse is a French word that refers to a female who practices massage. (Males in the industry were known as masseurs.)
