Calso for massage therapists
Answers the phone so you never stop a massage to take a call.
Calso is an AI phone answerer for Australian massage therapists. When you're in a session and the phone is on silent, the call goes to Calso instead of voicemail. It answers questions about your services, prices and session lengths from your own website and Google listing, takes the booking request, and texts it to you straight away. You keep your own number.

The calls massage therapists miss
- You're forty minutes into a remedial session. You're not answering the phone, and you shouldn't.
- Callers want prices, session lengths, whether you do remedial or relaxation, and whether they can claim on their health fund.
- Plenty of people decide to book after work, once you've finished for the day.

What Calso does on those calls
- Answers questions about your services, prices, session lengths and health fund rebates, if your website or setup interview covers them.
- Takes booking requests: name, number, type and length of session, and when suits them.
- Texts you each one straight away, so you can confirm between clients.
- Says it's an AI assistant if anyone asks. It never pretends to be a person.
What it won't do
- It doesn't give health advice or say whether massage suits someone's condition. That becomes a message for you.
- It doesn't check anyone's health fund cover, process claims or take payments.
- It doesn't connect to Cliniko, Fresha or any other booking system.
- It doesn't record calls, and it never guesses: what it doesn't know becomes a message for you.
How your clinic gets set up
- 01
Calso reads what you've published
Sign up with your business name. Calso reads your website and Google listing for your hours, services, prices and policies.
- 02
A short setup interview
Typed, or by voice if you'd rather. It covers what your website doesn't say, and how you want messages and requests taken.
- 03
Forward the calls you miss
You get your Calso number and choose a plan. Then set your phone to forward the calls you don't answer. Customers keep ringing your usual number.
Setup usually takes under 15 minutes, because Calso reads your website and Google listing first. Nothing is charged until you choose a plan. To undo it, turn call forwarding off.

Most massage therapists in the directory open on Saturdays and Sundays. A seven-day week is a lot of hours in sessions with the phone on silent.
The visit figure counts Google visits to business pages in the Calso Directory from Saturday 24 to Monday 26 October 2026, set against each business's listed hours in its own state's time. It was a weekend-heavy sample, so read it as a sign of when people look businesses up, not a rule for every week. Each of those visits was someone who might have called.
Where they're listed most: Melbourne (1,770), Sydney (1,608), Brisbane (833), Perth (742), Adelaide (446), Gold Coast (402). Listings and hours as published in the directory, October 2026.
Your directory listing needs no account. Calso, the phone answerer, is a separate paid service.

Questions massage therapists ask
Only what you've told it. If your website or setup interview says which sessions attract rebates, Calso can say so. It doesn't check anyone's cover or process claims.
No. If someone asks whether massage will help an injury, Calso takes the question and their details and texts you, so you can answer it properly.
Keep it on silent rather than off. With call forwarding on no answer, a call you don't pick up goes to your Calso number instead of voicemail. A phone that is switched off uses a different forwarding setting (forward when unreachable), which your carrier can also point at Calso.
No. It takes the booking request and texts it to you, and you put it in your own system.
