Per-treatment flat-fee pricing is the dominant model in this trade, sometimes with add-on charges for extra procedures, a minimum call-out charge, a travel/mileage surcharge, and a lower per-client rate for care-home visits where you see several residents per trip. Your price should cover your travel time and cost, treatment time, consumables, insurance, and waste disposal — not just the minutes spent with the client. There's no single published UK market rate for this work; use our Pricing & Profitability Calculator with your own real numbers rather than guessing.
