OMG! The Best Therapeutic Massage in Mexico!

While on my tropical dental vacation in Mexico in Sept 2019, I decided that a massage would really help out. I got a recommendation from my friends who live in Bacalar. His name is José Ramón Campo Alonso, but everyone calls him Txape (pronounced like chop-ay). This massage place is called La Casa Fantastica, and take a look, the whole house sets the mood for a relaxing experience.

How going to Mexico for Cheap Dental Work can Ease your Pain!

Imagine my shock when I went to the dentist in Corado and the estimate for the work I needed was $13,000 – $15,000! And that was WITH insurance. I had two teeth that were bothering me, but the dentist said 6 teeth needed work. I got estimates for root canals, implants, and bone grafts.

I was appalled at this estimate. $15,000 and that was just my portion of the bill after insurance. Without insurance, this would have been $30,000. You could buy a car instead. This is one of the reasons I have delayed dental work before in the past. It just doesn’t seem reasonable or rational. Who can afford to pay that? With or without insurance?

As my teeth continued to get worse and even developing abscesses, I knew I would have to do something soon. And this is when my tropical dental vacation planning began.

San Miguel de Allende, voted Best City in the World

San Miguel de Allende (SMA) is a unique and charming little city in the center of Mexico that you will fall in love with at first sight. In 2008, San Miguel de Allende was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site by the United Nations as a Historical City. A remarkable example of 16th-century Spanish Colonial Baroque architecture. The city’s colonial authenticity and cultural integrity, and the excellent condition of its historic downtown (Centro Historico,) were key elements that contributed to the UNESCO designation. Named “The Best City in the World” in 2017 & 2018 by Travel & Leisure, San Miguel de Allende attributes this in large part to its artisan markets, architecture, beauty, cuisine, and cultural heritage.
