Pampering the body, mind and spirit will be easy in the Riviera Nayarit. The only thing one might find difficult is deciding on the type of treatments to indulge in…a good combination is a great alternative!
Awaken the senses at one of the areas hotel specialty spas where you can enjoy both indoor and outdoor Oceanside treatments. After choosing an ideal setting, the vast array of treatments can appear to be something from a restaurant menu. One popular hotel’s spa offers 13 types of massages, 9 different facials, 12 body treatments, and 24 salon services.
At most spas, full body therapeutic massages, aromatherapy and hot stone treatments immerge as the favorites for relaxation. Try an algae or Mayan mud body wrap to rejuvenate sun drenched skin, or a sea glow exfoliation for a silky touch that will make you wonder if it is truly your own skin. Perhaps a rejuvenating or deep cleansing facial will provide a vibrant new look perfect for holiday photos or a fresh start back to work.
And, for those with a spiritual desire, a special Temezcal could be a powerful choice. A shaman-like leader can take you through an experience that aims to heal and purify the mind, body and soul. Inside an igloo shaped adobe hut, the Shaman uses volcanic clay, water, stones, herbs and fire to perform a pre-Hispanic group ritual. A combination of the shaman's application of mud and water to the body, his on going chanting and the intense heat and a medley of aromas in the hut, make the two hours unforgettable.
Massages and facials are now popular with both men and women, with couples often sharing a room or seaside hut in order to enjoy their experience together. Clearly body and beauty treatments are no longer a treat only for the elite, but a lifestyle activity whose rich benefits are enjoyed by all.
