Sensory Chocolate Ritual

The sweetest treatment on our menu, and the most gifted. Exfoliation first, then a warm wrap of pure cacao mousse, and a relaxing massage to finish. The scent fills the room from the first minute: it's as much a sensory experience as a skin treatment.

What it is and where it comes from

The Maya called it "food of the gods" and used it on the skin, not only in the mouth.

Cacao reached beauty rituals long before it reached pastry. Mesoamerican cultures already applied it to the skin for its nourishing properties, and cacao butter remains one of the richest natural emollients there is.

Its cosmetic interest is real, not merely aromatic: pure cacao is high in antioxidant polyphenols and magnesium, and its butter melts at body temperature, so it absorbs without leaving a greasy film. And the aroma works through the olfactory route, straight to the limbic system.

What you'll feel

Deep hydration from cacao butter

It melts at body temperature and absorbs without a greasy feel. One of the most nourishing natural emollients there is.

Genuine antioxidant effect

The polyphenols in pure cacao counter oxidative damage to the skin. Here the ingredient isn't just an aromatic selling point.

A lift in mood

Cacao's aroma stimulates serotonin and endorphin production through the olfactory route. It's hard to leave here in a bad mood.

An experience, not just a treatment

Warmth, enveloping scent and texture. This is the one you choose when you want something memorable rather than therapeutic.

Who it's for — and who should check first

Especially good if you

  • Want a gift that genuinely surprises
  • Are planning something as a couple or celebrating
  • Have dry or dull skin and want deep nourishment
  • Fancy an experience more than a treatment

Talk to us first if you

  • Are allergic to cacao, chocolate or nuts
  • Have dermatitis, eczema or psoriasis flaring up
  • Have open wounds or sunburn
  • Don't tolerate heat well or have circulatory problems: the wrap is warm and prolonged
  • Are pregnant — we offer a dedicated prenatal massage

Cacao allergy is uncommon but real, and some preparations can contain traces of nuts. If you have food allergies, tell us when booking and we'll verify beforehand.

Frequently asked questions

Can we do it as a couple?

Yes, and that's how it's most often booked. We have a room for two. Message us on WhatsApp saying there are two of you and we'll confirm availability and the price of the duo ritual.

Does it smell strongly of chocolate?

Quite strongly, yes, and that's part of the appeal. We use pure cacao, so the aroma is deeper and less sugary than supermarket chocolate. The scent stays on your skin for a few hours.

Is it edible?

No. It's a cosmetic preparation of cacao and cacao butter formulated for topical use, not for consumption. It smells delicious, but it isn't meant to be eaten.

Will it stain my skin or clothes?

Residue is removed in the room at the end, so your skin is left clean and hydrated, not brown. Even so, don't come in white or delicate clothing: a trace can always remain.

What exactly does the ritual include?

Three phases: a body exfoliation to prepare the skin, a warm cacao mousse wrap left to work, and a relaxing final massage. That's why we recommend 60 or 90 minutes; 30 doesn't fit the full ritual.

Does it work as a gift?

It's among the most chosen for gifting, along with Kohorelax. We have gift vouchers with instant digital delivery or in a physical box if you want to hand it over in person.
