What is it like?
- Strip down in the locker room and get into your plush, green robe
- Sip cucumber infused water
- Enter the mud bath room and lose our robe
- Climb into a giant tub of hot, black mud with the assistance of Maria
- Since you don't sink in the mud, lay on top of the mud naked, while Maria scoops up mud and covers you up
- Lay in the mud for 12-15 minutes
- Briefly wash off
- Enter a hot water tub for 12-15 minutes
- Sip cucumber infused water
- Enter the sauna for desired length
- Sip cucumber infused water
- Get wrapped in a sheet
- Lay in a private room with cucumbers and a cool washcloth over my eyes
- Take a final shower... still public
- Return to locker room the change
- Sip more cucumber water
What did I think?
Um... positives first...- The staff was awesome
- It was a completely calming environment
- I might be claustrophobic. I might have been fighting back some panic as my head was slipping off the pillow and the pressure of the mud on my chest seemed overwhelming (think La Brea Tarpit).
- Also, it was hot, hot, hot. At one point, I was able to wiggle my foot out of the mud because I was so hot, but then Maria came by and plopped a big splat of mud back on top (sigh).
- I would have preferred to have a private shower at some point. Yes, ladies, there was mud everywhere! I just don't shower the same when there is a room of people milling about around me.
Thanks Karen!
