September 15, 2014 at 12:00 amI spent the most transformative week of my life at Pura Medicina. The family shared with me a sweet and forceful medicine that gives each person what she needs. That medicine is love. Maestro Gumercindo is a shaman of immense power, as are Mami and Papi. The whole family (and the dogs too!) welcomed me, taught me, and healed me. Mel has a true gift for the work of facilitiation she does there: she creates a space in which the medicine can work to its best advantage. Pura Medicina is the real deal. I found there what I was looking for, and it was so much more beautiful than I had dared to hope. Muchas gracias a todos.

August 12, 2014 at 12:00 amSince my ayahuasca journey more than a year ago, I’ve visited three different ayahuasca healing centers around Iquitos, and after going to Pura Medica for the second time this year I can conclude that, as far as healing goes, this is the retreat to choose.
Maestro Gumercindo is without question the most powerful shaman I’ve met, and together with his family, they are strong and experienced enough to take care any situation that may arise during the ceremonies. I haveve the utmost respect and trust in them. I’ll definitely go back again!

August 7, 2014 at 12:00 amI came to Pura Medicina when it was La Familia Medicina for my first Ayahuasca experience this past June, without knowing the retreat I attended would be the last for LFM, I decided to altar my travel plans and come back to volunteer for the remainder of my trip. It has been the best decision I?ve made throughout my time here in South America – I?ve had a chance to get to know La Familia Galindo, work with the medicine, and add my own experience and knowledge by bringing art therapy to the camp. If you are looking for a safe, reflective, and meaningful experience, come to Pura Medicina!
