The Grupo Mayan spas offer clients a full range of spa services.  All of our clients have their favorites and two of our most popular treatments are the Vichy shower and the body scrub.  Both of these services are great for your skin, say the Grupo Mayan spa teams.
Unless you have been to a spa before you may not have heard of a Vichy shower.  This French treatment is a shower taken while lying on a table.  The Vichy shower equipment is quite unique.  The water streams from seven shower heads while you lay on a wet table.

Many times, say the Grupo Mayan spa pros, the Vichy shower is used after body scrubs and mud baths so you do not have to get up and go to another area to rinse your body.  For modesty, the Grupo Mayan specialists will drape towels across your lower waist and breast area during the shower.  Many guests leave our spas wishing they could install one of these wonderful showers at home.

Another favorite service of many Grupo Mayan guests is the body scrub offered at our spas.  Most scrubs are made using salt or sea salt mixed with oils, lotions, and aromatics.  Some scrubs mix ingredients for body detoxification with the salt.

The body scrub will exfoliate and hydrate your skin.  This treatment is performed in a room with a Vichy shower.  You will lie on a table with a thin sheet beneath you.  The Grupo Mayan staff will provide you with disposable underwear if you prefer.  As you lie on the table, your Grupo Mayan spa specialist will rub the salt scrub onto your skin with a light massage technique.  When one side of your body is finished you will be asked to turn over so the specialist can work on the other side.

After your scrub is completed the Grupo Mayan spa specialist will set up the Vichy shower.  This will allow you to rinse off without having to move to another area.  As mentioned earlier, the Vichy shower is a treat itself.  After your body has been rinsed, the specialist will apply lotion or cream to your body for extra hydration.  After this treatment your skin will feel wonderful.

If you plan to have other spa treatments while on your Grupo Mayan holiday the spa teams recommend having a body wrap, (seaweed), after your body scrub.  The seaweed will help eliminate toxins from your body and works especially well on skin that has just been stimulated with a body scrub.

Massages are a great spa treatment and pair especially well with body scrubs.  Not only will your skin feel rejuvenated, the Grupo Mayan staff says you will feel better all over because the massage will relieve stress and increase the circulation of your blood.

The Grupo Mayan spa teams look forward to your spa visit.  We will work with you to design the perfect spa package depending on your needs.  Be prepared to be pampered at Grupo Mayan!
