I’ve recently visited this exciting new beauty& skincare Salon. I was excited for this particular visit, I think mostly because it is owned by my sister (in-law). I’m so proud of her for following her dream and passion.

My Mangwanani Day





One of the best memories of 2015 would definitely be when I was chosen as a Brand Ambassador for Mangwanani African Spa.

I’ve always had a love for Massages and beauty treatments. One of my best methods of relaxation is when I am having any kind of Massage treatment.

Sometimes, when I look at my almost 4 year old daughter and see the excitement when she receives something she really wanted or when we take her to the beach, it totally overwhelms her! She’s then beyond herself – it makes my heart melt. I can now relate.

I guess that is the same kind of excitement I experience when I know I'm going for a Massage treatment.

I was over the moon when the day finally arrived and we had to go and enjoy our African Revitalizing Spa Treatment! You get pampered for a whole day!!!!  Seriously!!




We arrived at the Zvenwacht Mangwanani by 8h30 and was welcomed with the beautiful sound of Traditional African singing and drumming.





We were then escorted to the changing rooms and slipped into our gowns and slippers, which we spent the entire day in.  We headed over to the restaurant to enjoy a healthy breakfast before we headed off to our first pamper session.


 I was so excited – almost felt like a child let loose in a candy shop!
We were pampered with three of our 7 treatments – Each one was heaven and I fell in and out of naps in between,because I never felt so totally relaxed and spoiled!

These ladies are so professional and each treatment we received was so well executed and detailed.  By the time the first three treatments was done, it was lunch time. 
We had a choice between three delicious meals and chose the fish option.



  After the enjoyment of our scrumptious meal and delicious dessert, we enjoyed the rest of our treatments!  Our treatments included the following:


UBUSO – Revitalizing Facial Spa with pressure point massage.

TLHAPISO – Spa Body Treatment – You have a choice of body wash, exfoliation or body brushing.

IZIMANGA – Traditional Full Body Massage with hot stone. Hot Stones and a blend of essential oils and lemongrass are placed on the body and a creeme & almond oil infusion melt into the skin, leaving you feeling Refreshed, Revitalized and Re-energized.

MOLALA – African Head, Neck & Shoulders Massage with sesame seed oil.

NEO MAOTO – Traditional African Royal Foot Massage (from toes to knees) – Here tired feet are soaked in a Fresh Petal Oil Bath, then scrubbed with sugar, herbs and almond oil and finally treated to sesame seed oil and a light pressure point massage.

NEO MATSOGO – Traditional African Royal Hand Massage (from fingers to elbows), Rose petal water cleansing, sugar and grape seed oil scrub followed by pressure point stress relieving massage.

JACUZZI – The Jacuzzi was so much fun! It was very private, so you could enjoy it to the max.




A day like this should really on  one’s bucket/to-do list. We have such busy lives and I think everyone should at least treat themselves  a loved one, friend or someone you think deserves it,  to something like this every now and then.
