time-honoured techniques of their Mexican spiritual healers. Take a journey of discovery in authentic healing and uncover the traditional ceremonies and transformational rituals inspired by ancient tribes. Begin a signature Mexican spa day with the
ceremonial burning of copal — a tropical tree resin — as feet are placed into a purifying bath. Then ease into an exfoliating sea salt rubdown to release toxins and prepare the skin for the application of desert herbs. These potent herbs help to diminish puffiness, disinfect and hydrate, leaving skin softer and suppler. A holistic healing experience will then lead into a deep-body massage using an array of traditional healing tools and unique stretching techniques to help coax the body into a deep state of relaxation and renewal. Enjoy an outdoor oceanside massage in a
private cabana while listening to the gentle sounds of swaying palms and crashing waves. Soak in the serenity and rise with a sense of
renewal. Or opt for a relaxing wellness escape in the comfort of your own accommodations and feel tranquillity wash over while surrendering to total relaxation. Also available to guests is the experience of a
temazcal. Handed down throughout the centuries, it’s an illuminating, awakening ritual, an ancient Mayan ceremony led by a Shaman, a leader of the local indigenous Mayo tribe. Meaning ‘house of heat’, ‘temazcal’ has been practised for health and purification since pre-Hispanic times. As authentic as Mexico itself, this traditional
healing experience begins with a cleansing ritual pairing aromatic copal incense with herb and flower infused waters to ease the mind. A deep-body massage using an array of traditional healing tools and unique stretching techniques to help the body enter into a deep state of relaxation and renewal. The temazcal ritual is a total body experience with drumming, chanting and intense perspiring that some describe as akin to being reborn.
ONE&ONLY MANDARINA Situated in a volcanic rock garden, the spa is framed by expressions of sacred geometry created by Huicholes, an indigenous community of Riviera Nayarit. With a layout based on an eight- point star, the spa represents the Huichol vision of rebirth, renewal and spiritual regeneration. Each corner represents a different element: fire for the temazcal; water for wet areas; earth for the spa entrance; air and body for the treatment rooms; spirit for the ocean; mind for the equilibrium pavilion; and soul for the vitality area. Be transported far away both physically and
mentally with spa treatments and alternative therapies inspired by the natural world. The spiritual guides take guests on a journey of discovery at One&Only Mandarina.
