Guided by a shaman, you’ll engage in a mud bath and steam session inside a traditional Temazcal, a sweat lodge that symbolizes the womb of Mother Earth. As you sweat out the stresses of daily life, you’ll find yourself rejuvenated and ready to embrace the day. One recent visitor shared,

Perfect Day of Rejuvenation - This experience was just delightful. My 16-year-old daughter and I absolutely loved it. The little village in which the experience happens is remote, quaint, and calming. The mineral spring pool soak, mud scrub, and steam were just what we needed. We also very much enjoyed the authenticity of it all, including the food. Our guides, including our driver, throughout this day were nothing but stellar. (Reviewed on 2023-03-29)
