Rafiki brings massage therapy right to the privacy of your luxury tent, with treatments including Swedish massage, bamboo therapy, chocolate aromatherapy and coconut oil treatments.

Our certified therapist, Yerlin Tapia, tailors each session to your day: deep-tissue bamboo work after rafting, coconut shell therapy following a horseback ride, or — if all you need is a foot rub or a pedicure to get you back on your feet — a foot treatment after a long hike.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Bamboo Therapy / Chocolate Massage / Coconut Aroma Treatment

You may choose a relaxing swedish massage or opt from one of Yerlin's speciality treatments. A deep tissue bamboo massage really helps ease shoulder tension after a rafting trip. Re-vitalizing coconut shell therapy does wonders afters a horseback ride up the mountain. Tropical spa treatments are also available to soothe your skin after a hike up the waterfalls. Yerlin is certified in chocolate and coconut oil aroma therapy. Perhaps all you need a is foot rub or a pedicure to get you back on your feet!

Meet Yerlin

Yerlin Tapia joined the Rafiki team 6 years ago. She was one of the first students to graduate from the new high school in the village of Santo Domingo. With a micro-loan from Rafiki, she wasted no time in pursuing a technical degree in Massage Therapy. It has been wonderful to witness her master in her craft through the years. Rafiki has become famous as a place to maximize adventure. Now we can proudly say that it is also a place to maximize relaxation.
