A visit to Gateway Mall can be about more than shopping, dining and entertainment. It can also be an opportunity to slow down, relax and make time for your wellbeing.

Located in the heart of Gateway Theatre of Shopping, VHI Skin & Spa Gateway Mall offers professional massages, facial treatments, couples packages, manicures, pedicures and complete spa experiences.

Whether you need a quick treatment between errands or several hours of uninterrupted pampering, VHI Spa Gateway provides a convenient escape from the demands of everyday life.

A Convenient Spa in the Heart of Umhlanga

VHI Spa is situated at Shops F404 and F405, Entrance 2, on the first floor of Gateway Theatre of Shopping.

Its central Umhlanga location makes it convenient for guests from Umhlanga Ridge, Durban North, La Lucia, Mount Edgecombe and surrounding areas.

You can include a spa treatment in an existing visit to the mall or make the spa your main destination for the day. Enjoy your treatment before shopping, meet a friend for lunch afterwards or plan a complete couples date at Gateway.

The branch is open seven days a week from 8am to 9pm, making it easier to find an appointment that works around your schedule.

Seven Beautiful Treatment Rooms

VHI Spa Gateway features seven beautifully designed spa rooms for solo and couples treatments.

The peaceful treatment spaces allow you to step away from the energy of the shopping centre and settle into a calm environment. Once your treatment begins, you can put your phone aside, close your eyes and focus entirely on relaxation.

Multiple treatment rooms also make the branch suitable for:

- Individual spa treatments
- Couples massages
- Friends booking together
- Birthday and anniversary spoils
- Selected small-group bookings
- Morning, daytime and evening appointments

Couples rooms and group appointments remain subject to availability, so advance booking is recommended.

Relaxing Massage Treatments

Long hours spent working, driving, standing or walking can leave the muscles feeling tired and tense.

Massage uses controlled pressure and flowing movements to encourage relaxation and ease everyday muscular tightness. VHI Spa Gateway offers both full-body treatments and shorter targeted options.

Depending on your chosen massage, the experience may help:

- Ease everyday back, neck and shoulder tension
- Relax tired muscles
- Encourage physical and mental relaxation
- Provide a break from screens and responsibilities
- Support an overall sense of wellbeing
- Create meaningful time for self-care

Always inform your therapist about injuries, sensitive areas, medical considerations and your preferred massage pressure.

Quick Back and Neck Massages

Not every spa visit needs to take several hours.

A targeted back and neck massage can be ideal when you have limited time or feel tension concentrated in the upper body. It provides a convenient break during a shopping day, lunch period or busy working week.

Shorter treatments are well suited to:

- Guests with limited time
- Busy professionals
- Shoppers needing a break
- People who prefer focused massage
- First-time spa visitors
- Regular maintenance appointments

Even a shorter appointment creates time to pause and give your body some attention.
