Pay R89 for a 45-minute hot stone massage at Beauty Intelligence, valued at R290 (save 69%)

Stones are very versatile implements. They can be used to skip across water, they can be used to weigh down paper, they beat scissors (even if they’re beaten by paper), they can be used as décor and apparently when they’re heated, they give terrific massages. Experience a hot stone massage at Beauty Intelligence for R89.

To say that the Beauty Intelligence staff know their way around a hot stone is the understatement of the millennium. It’s like saying winning the lottery is ‘nice.’ You cannot walk through the Beauty Intelligence doors thinking that what your about to go through is just a simple heating of some rocks that will be laid down your back. Oh no nay-sayer of the hot-rock persuasion! You cross the threshold of reality and enter the realm of fairy tales and magic; where something that resembles a paper weight can make you feel as light as a feather.

The massage itself is administered by one of Beauty Intelligence’s expert therapists who will become your personal saint of relaxation for the next 45 minutes. Heal the meridians of the body with a soothing combination of relaxing strokes and healing hot stones. And by soothing, picture being fanned by Egyptian hand-maidens, whilst listening to cherubs playing the harp, while being fed grapes from a platinum platter.
