Best facial of my life. Sasha was incredible and the cottage is truly beautiful inside. Loved Sasha's room. The candles and overall ambience truly added to the experience. Brilliant massage and so impressed with the Hydrafacial Results. Would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Every time I visit I want to take a picture of the beautiful settings and post on social media, but I always get so excited to see my Therapist Alison that I forget! This is my happiest of places and Alison keeps my young, literally! Magic hands and the kindest soul I always leave floating on a cloud with my worries far behind 💛💛💛💛💛

I have been going to IIhaam for about 4 years now. She does amazing brows and I’m always getting compliments on my brows. Her knowledge and advise on facials is keeping me young. I totally recommend her and have no problem driving extra mile for this phenomenal service. I always feel spoilt after seeing her. The spa is also warm calming and inviting. Well worth a hard earned penny. Thanks Illhaam for always looking after me. 🙏

I’ve never had lash extensions before and I am literally blown away. They are ridiculously pretty, and very natural looking - with just enough pizazz to really draw attention to my eyes. I’m beyond thrilled with the result. Comfort is a master of her craft and my hour long appointment flew by with her insightful and charming conversation. The application was comfortable and I am not aware of the lashes at all.. except when I look in the mirror!! Gorgeous gorgeous girls get their lashes done by Comfort! I will definitely be back!

Impeccable service by the wonderful team at Artisan! I had an intense treatment done recently, and it was handled with a high level of professionalism (and genuine care!) by my ace therapist, Sasha! Thanks to the Artisan head honcho as well, for a follow up phone call. Well done, team!

I have been going to Nicole regularly for over four years. Her level of service and expertise has been outstanding during every single appointment. Not once has she “ dropped the ball”. I can honestly say that Nicole goes out of her way to make each appointment relaxing and luxurious, even when the treatment doesn’t call for it. I would highly recommend Nicole for all the treatments she offers. She truly cares about each client and it shows. Not once have I felt pressured to purchase any products not felt obliged to book any treatments. I always leave the salon feeling pampered and special!

Sports Massage FAQs
A sport’s massage is designed to boost blood circulation, increase tissue elasticity, and reduce muscle tension. It can be used as part of a muscle warm-up before exercise or to prevent and relieve injuries caused by repeated physical activity. The massages were originally given to athletes but non-athletes can benefit from them, too.
You're likely to pay around ZAR 650 for a sport's massage in Claremont.
A sport’s massage is focused on myofascial release – myo meaning muscle, fascial meaning fascia – the white connective tissue surrounding the muscle. It helps prevent and relieve injury caused by strenuous and repeated physical activity.
Deep tissue massage tends to be a full body massage; a sport’s massage targets a specific area of the body that needs healing or relief.
It depends on your pain threshold and the extent of your injury and muscle stress. You’re likely to feel discomfort during and after your massage, but not to the degree that you start to tense up in order to take the pain. Your massage therapist should tailor their technique to work within your pain threshold.
There are four main types of sport’s massage:
Pre-event – given 15-45 minutes before an activity, a pre-event sport’s massage focuses on the areas of your body that are most likely to be exerted during the activity.
Post-event – given up to two hours after an activity to help it help myofascial release.
Restorative – aims to prevent injury and enable intensive training in the lead-up to an sport’s event you are training for.
Rehabilitative – aims to reduce tissue inflammation following an injury.
