Velas Resorts Unveils New Wellness Offerings Where Ancestral Traditions Meet Modern Practices
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico (December 3, 2024) - Velas Resorts in Mexico is introducing several transformative spa and wellness experiences across their luxury, all-inclusive resorts for the new year. Guests can now unlock peak performance with a biohacking menu at Grand Velas Riviera Maya, balance their energy through chakra healing at Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit, indulge in ultimate relaxation with a head spa experience at Grand Velas Los Cabos, or embrace tranquility through a holistic labyrinth meditation and botanical tea-making workshop at Casa Velas.
At Grand Velas Riviera Maya, SE Spa presents a biohacking menu inspired by the global trend of optimizing biology for enhanced health and performance. Innovative facilities and cutting-edge experiences designed to promote deep relaxation and physical renewal include a sensory deprivation tank to enhance sleep quality, an infrared sauna and polar plunge to improve circulation and recovery, and pressotherapy boots to reduce swelling and boost energy. Additional offerings include an infrared hair comb and LED facial mask to support scalp and skin health, as well as a FIR therapy mat made from jade and tourmaline stones that emits far infrared rays to improve circulation and muscle recovery. Guests can choose from three curated biohacking packages tailored to rejuvenate, relax, or enhance overall wellness. In partnership with CauseMedic, the spa also introduces a CBD-enhanced treatment designed to support recovery and overall well-being, particularly for athletes.
Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit invites guests to embark on a journey of spiritual renewal with its new Chakra Healing Sessions. Inspired by ancestral Mexican practices, these experiences combine old tradition with modern wellness techniques to create a profound sense of balance and connection. Chakra Healing journeys begin with a Copal Cleansing Ceremony, a ritual using aromatic tree resin to clear negative energy, followed by a series of guided practices including ice baths to stimulate the nervous system, sound healing and meditation to align the chakras, and mindfulness exercises that foster inner peace. Sessions conclude with light refreshments of fresh fruits and herbal teas. Individual Reiki sessions with personalized sound baths are also available for guests seeking a more private, tailored experience. Priced at $1,050 USD for up to 10 participants or $365 USD per individual, these offerings are available upon request and can be tailored to guest preferences.
At Grand Velas Los Cabos, SE Spa introduces the ultimate head spa experience designed to rejuvenate both the scalp and senses. This indulgent treatment begins with a welcome ritual featuring rosemary and mint to calm the mind. Guests are then treated to a deep cleansing of the hair using high-quality Moroccanoil products, followed by a custom hair mask selected to meet individual needs, such as moisturizing for dry or damaged hair or repairing for enhanced hair structure. While the mask absorbs, a relaxing scalp massage using Japanese shiatsu techniques relieves tension and balances energy. The treatment concludes with the application of collagen eye patches to reduce wrinkles and a professional blow-dry for a polished finish. Priced at $170 USD per person, the Head Spa Experience is available by appointment, and guests can check availability directly with SE Spa.
Additionally, at Casa Velas a new ‘Wellness Wednesdays' offering invites guests to embrace relaxation and mindfulness through a curated series of activities set in the serene surroundings of the Botanical Garden. Participants embark on a two-hour journey of wellness that includes yoga to harmonize body and mind, guided meditation through the labyrinth of the four elements for inner balance, and a tea blending workshop. The latter blends creativity with the calming art of herbal infusion where participants create their own teas using freshly picked herbs and spices from the onsite botanical garden. These thoughtfully designed experiences provide a rejuvenating midweek escape, fostering holistic well-being for guests.
