Plant Medicine

Plant medicine is an extensive natural science of ancestral origin present in all cultures of the world. It is the way humans have dealt with illness since the dawn of their existence and it is even the mechanism that animals in the wild resort to in order to cure their ailments.

Herbal medicine is also the starting point of modern pharmaceutics, which found its initial inspiration in the medicinal properties of plants known to the grandparents who possessed this knowledge.

It is a discipline that encompasses not only the cure of the body functions but also psychological, emotional and spiritual ailments. It extends to the field of personal learning thanks to the teachings received through the systematic and orderly consumption of the so-called “Master Plants”.

At Santuario Tonkiri we study this science with love, respect and deep dedication, following the guidelines established by the tradition of “Amazonian Vegetalism”, which we consider to be the highest form of natural healing and shamanism existing on the face of the earth.
