Traditional Amazonian folk medicine

Shanay-timpishka, Peru

Welcome to Ampiri

A place of deep healing and transformation, dedicated to the study and teaching of traditional Amazonian folk medicine, on the world’s largest hot thermal river.

Come reconnect with nature and yourself. Take a mud bath, or bathe in the big hot spring river just steps from your dieting hut.

Why come to Ampiri? For the teachings

Besides the jungle, with its birds, monkeys and wildlife, and the hot mineral springs that wash away aches, pains and anxiety, people come to Ampiri for the teachings.

  1. Small groupsGroups are kept small and personal, so we work with each person individually, on a programme made for their own needs.
  2. More than ayahuascaA deep teaching of Amazonian plant medicine and magic: the use and preparation of many plants, their methods and techniques.
  3. The foundationThe fundamentals of natural medicine and naturalism, a foundation like the root and trunk of a big tree, to build on for the rest of your life.
  4. Anywhere in the worldThe knowledge travels. We encourage you to learn the plants of your own country, and give you the tools to become a vegetalista, or naturalist, anywhere.
