Archaeologists at the ancient Maya city of Chichen Itza have excavated buildings of great interest in the history of massage - the royal Maya zumpul-che or sweat-bath, a sacred ceremonial cave or temple to purify mind, body and soul. Aztecs practiced similar purification rituals at a Temazcal.

The healing power of cenote water is carefully brew with Mayan herbs and gently pour over stones inside the cave during each Zumpul-che (sweat-bath purification) Maya ceremony. This cleansing ceremony has the natural, beneficial effects and purification properties of fire and water as cosmic sources for personal healing to unblock the energy flow of spirit and the physical body.
