Traditional Healing Arts

Ceremonial Temazcal

The Temazcal (House of Hot Stones), an ancient curative ceremony is a pre-Hispanic steam bath used to purify body and spirit. By entering this traditional healing vessel, we cleanse ourselves in order to rebirth and open new pathways in our lives. The sacred womb of adobe earth is prepared with special medicinal herbs and hot stones. Inside the temazcal, through chanting and meditation we purify our mind, body and soul.

Traditional Mexican Limpia

Known as "Spirit Cleansing", the traditional healer invokes the powers of the Gods to expel negative energies from the body, mind and spirit by reciting prayers, laying on of hands, cleansing with eggs and candles, or sweeping the air around the body with various medicinal plants. This ancient Mexican ritual clears the spirit to allow optimum healing and balance.
