Traditional Olmec Temazcal

Step into an ancestral Temazcal (sweat lodge) ceremony guided by Don Santiago Ortela, a Mazatec traditional doctor and carrier of Olmec medicine. This is a prayerful, community-held experience for deep reflection, release, and detox from modern life—leaving many people feeling lighter, clearer, and renewed in energy.

The Temazcal is an Indigenous Mesoamerican tradition of heat, steam, song, and prayer—held with respect, humility, and right intention. We gather in circle, guided through a structured ceremonial process, and close by grounding together as a community.

Don Santiago Ortela (born 1951, Guadalupe, Oaxaca) is a traditional doctor of Mazatec lineage with decades of experience in Temazcal practice, herbalism, and master plants. Your page notes his collaborations with universities and institutes across several countries and describes him as President of the National Council of Traditional Mexican Medicine.
