Ancient Ritual
The Temazcal is a shamanic ritual that has existed for over a thousand years and was practiced by different indigenous civilizations of Mesoamerica and North America, including the Aztecs, Toltecs, and Mayans.
The Aztec "House of Heat"
The word *temazcal* comes from the Nahuatl term temázcalli, which means “house of heat” in the ancient language of the Aztecs.
Ritualistic Ceremony
In Mesoamerica, the temazcal had both a healing and a ritualistic purpose. It was a ceremony that could take place before or after battles, with the aim of purifying the soul and healing the body.
A Ritual for Preparation
The temazcal was also a ritual practiced by participants in the ceremonial ball game. This game played a crucial role in their culture, and as such, the players wanted to be as prepared as possible, hence their participation in the temazcal ceremony.
A Steamy Journey
Before starting the ritual, you take a fruit drink. Once installed inside the Temazcal, you begin introducing the hot volcanic stones on which the "Shaman" pours a cup of herbal tea to create a steam aroma that envelops the entire body. This process repeats several times to maintain the level of heat and humidity of the Temazcal.
Detox and Relief
Cold towels are used inside the Temazcal for face cooling and at the same time, the application of natural Aloe Vera to soothe and help detoxify.
Closure and Sweating
Upon leaving the Temazcal, you shower with cold water to close your pores, and it also makes it easier the intense sweating when you are wrapped in a cotton towel.
