I had a four-handed massage yesterday. Yip, four hands.

That’s two people. It was absolutely incredible, and nearly put me into a coma (of happiness).

I popped into the Ubuntu Wellness Centre in Kloof Street (Cape Town) for an Ayurvedic massage, and was lucky enough to get upgraded to the four-hander. If anyone is ever thinking of having a massage again, trust me! This is the one.

Here, then, a few of my favourite things about massages …

  • Your body and mind disconnect. No matter how frantically your thoughts have been racing around your head, they’re forced into stillness.
  • You come out of it floating.
  • It reconnects you with your physical self (I think we live in our heads a lot of the time).
  • It’s deliciously decadent …
  • Go on! Treat yourself.
