Q&A

Questions before you book? Everything you need to know.

Ask on WhatsApp
How do I book?

Message or call on WhatsApp and I'll help you choose a time. Treatments are by appointment only, so please get in touch to book. It takes under a minute.

How long is a session, and what does it cost?

Treatments run 30, 60 or 90 minutes. A 60-minute massage is R500 (R550 for Herbal, Sport and Deep Tissue), and 90 minutes is R700–R750. See the full menu above.

Where are you based, and when are you open?

I'm in Plumstead, Cape Town. Open Monday to Friday 9:30am–4:30pm and Saturday 9am–2pm, by appointment only. Message me for the exact address when you book.

Is Thai massage right for me?

If you're carrying tension, stiffness or stress, or you simply want to unwind, you'll feel the difference. Not sure? Send me a message and I'll happily talk you through it.

What should I wear?

For traditional Thai and dry treatments, wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing you can move and stretch in. For oil and herbal treatments, you'll be professionally draped with towels throughout.

Do you take walk-ins?

Treatments are by appointment only, so please book ahead on WhatsApp or by phone. The upside: you'll never have to wait when you arrive.

Can I choose how firm the pressure is?

Absolutely. Just let Yuwaree know if you'd prefer lighter or firmer pressure, and she'll tailor the treatment to suit you.

I've never had a Thai massage, is that okay?

Of course. Yuwaree will guide you through every step and you can ask questions at any time. Most first-timers come back for more.

Can I still book if I have an injury, health condition or I'm pregnant?

Please mention any injuries, medical conditions or pregnancy when you book, so Yuwaree can adapt the treatment safely. If you're ever unsure, check with your doctor first.

Which treatment should I choose?

Tell me what you're after: deep relief, gentle relaxation or tired feet. I'll recommend the perfect treatment.
