Spa Therapy With A Carnivorous Twist At Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit

Apr 18, 2016
Daily

Need a little bite with your spa treatment? At Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit, you can indulge in a new Fire & Ice treatment that includes carnivorous plant enzymes culled from the Drosera ramentacea plant native to Madagascar, Botswana and South Africa. Spores from the plant are mingled with menthol and other ingredients in a mask that tingles and heats the skin in stages. A combination of hot and cold therapies help rev up circulation and nourish skin, beginning with a ritual of essential oils applied to the body’s natural pressure points and moving on to a full-body exfoliation. The Italian beauty brand Vagheggi is featured, and the treatment ends with a massage involving essential oils and volcanic diorite stones.

Start your spa adventure by booking one of the Mexican resort’s new 1,750-square-foot Wellness Suites, equipped with a personal Spa Concierge and Alchimia Apothecary Aromatherapy Kit with a full range of soothing scents including lavender, tangerine and myrrh. A Vitamin C Sprinkler emits an enveloping mist on demand that bathes guests in warm vitamin C essential oil. The space also comes with fitness amenities that include a yoga mat, dumbbells, resistance bands and Life Fitness Activate Series Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike. Wellness Suite guests receive a personal training session and a massage.
