Mexico City: Janzu Aquatic Massage Therapy & Water Healing

Summary

Water’s gentle hold brings deep calm and quiet clarity

You’ll float weightless in warm water as your guide moves you through gentle Janzu aquatic massage therapy in Mexico City. With all equipment included and supportive guidance throughout, you’ll experience deep relaxation and surprising emotional calm long after you leave the pool.

What’s the experience like?

The first thing I noticed was the hush — not silence exactly, but that thick, soft sound you get underwater. I’d never tried Janzu before, so when our guide (her name was Ana) handed me the nose clip and ear plugs, I felt a bit awkward. The pool was warm, almost body temperature, and there was this faint scent of eucalyptus from somewhere nearby. When Ana guided me to lie back, her hands steady under my neck and knees, I realized how rare it is to trust someone like that — just letting go and floating while she moved me through the water.

Time got weird after that. I kept thinking about how gravity disappeared — my arms drifted up without effort, like they belonged to someone else. Ana barely spoke except to check if I was comfortable (“todo bien?”), but her movements were slow and kind of hypnotic. Sometimes she’d swirl me gently in circles or rock me side to side; I could hear my own breath echoing inside the ear plugs. It felt a little like being back in childhood baths, or maybe even further back (Ana said Janzu is supposed to remind you of the safety of the womb — not sure I totally buy that, but it’s true there’s a strange comfort).

I lost track of time completely — at one point I thought maybe twenty minutes had passed, but it turned out to be nearly an hour. My muscles were jelly by then. When Ana finally helped me sit up again, everything outside the water seemed sharper: colors brighter, sounds louder. She wrapped me in a blanket and handed over some herbal tea (minty, sweet). There wasn’t any big “aha” moment for me during the session — just this slow unwinding that stuck with me for days after. It’s hard to explain unless you’ve done it yourself.
