Four New Organic Treatments Added to Menu, Plus DIY Recipe for At-Home Mask

 

Ambergris Caye, Belize (September 21, 2017) – Las Terrazas Resort now offers four new Mayan Cocoa Facials made from locally-grown Belizean cocoa at its Serenity Spa. The all-natural chocolate treatments that showcase one of the best products of the destination each have their own unique benefits from hydrating and toning to soothing, rejuvenating, and regenerating. Each treatment (60 min/ $115) consists of an explanation of benefits, mask application, 20-minute head massage, and cleansing.

 

Desired for its sweet taste, chocolate also has many beneficial properties stemming from its abundance of vitamins and anti-oxidants. Eating it can improve one’s mood, lower blood pressure, and improve brain function while applying chocolate to the skin can serve as a moisturizer, pore cleanser, brightener, acne alleviant, and anti-aging agent.

 

The Serenity Spa at Las Terrazas offers a range of services like beachside massages, body scrubs, manicures and pedicures, in addition to other locally-inspired treatments and skin therapies such as the ancient Mayan Abdominal Therapy. For those who can’t make it to the resort but wish to reap the benefits of the new cocoa facials at home, the resort is sharing DIY instructions for visitors to replicate it Hydrating Mayan Cocoa Facial treatment at home.
