The Renewal Centres, based out of South African Airways First Class Lounges, offer the services of a unique South African Renewal Experience to and from South Africa on their New York route.

The five specialised massage treatments have been carefully designed to relax and soothe the senses of the long haul traveller, in need of renewal and relaxation, prior to their embarkation of a 12 hour flight.

Studies have shown that 3-5% of travellers develop clots in veins due to flying. Some are asymptomatic, or occur with mild symptoms.

Two million cases of DVT occurree in the US each year and that a million could be attributed to air travel, with a total of 100,00 fatalities attributed to flying.

DVT can occur at any age but is much more common in older people and might lead to death.
