Maya Spa, EcoTulum's holistic healing center, offers a zero calorie
way to indulge in the sinful seduction of chocolate with new
therapies featuring the cacao bean. Tulum is located just one hour
south of resort playground Cancun.
Chocolate's
aphrodisiac properties have given it a sexy reputation, but the
cacao bean has been used for centuries by ancient cultures for its
healing properties. Now the Maya Spa has added chocolate-based
therapy to their other traditional Mayan treatments to lift the
spirits and give a feeling of total indulgence without the guilt.
Maya Spa's cacao
bean exfoliation and cacao butter massage bring new meaning to the
term “chocolate therapy” by tapping into the natural relaxing,
hydrating, anti-stress and antioxidant powers of cacao beans from
the Theobroma tree which grow in the southern jungles of Chiapas,
Mexico.
Cacao beans
contain phosphorous, magnesium, potassium, calcium and vitamins,
which trigger the production of mood enhancing endorphins. These in
turn stimulate the production of serotonin, the neurotransmitter
associated with happiness and feelings of positive well-being.
Maya Spa is known
for its extensive holistic spa menu, featuring innovative therapies
that address total body, mind and spirit wellness. The spa’s unique
treatments include Mayan clay massages, healing massages, energy
cleansings, crystal therapy, floatation chamber, and the ancient
temezcal sweat lodge purification rite. These treatments harmonize
traditional Mayan healing methods with modern Western spa services.
Screened-in therapy rooms in the jungle, beachside tented spa spaces
and private in-room service provide the ideal backdrop for Maya Spa
to tap into the authentic Mayan spirit that defines Tulum.
