» mavisp - Iquitos, Peru and traditional healing


I will be in Peru from 4/27 - 5/12 and will be visiting Iquitos. I have worked in the medical field for 30 years and have an interest in traditional healing/healers. Anyone have any suggestions as to who/how I might meet persons familar with healing in the Iquitos area?
Thank you.

In response to Iquitos, Peru and traditional healing posted by mavisp:


You could try speaking with any of the ecolodges in the Iquitos area. Most have contacts with some sort of shaman, some better than others, and can arrange ayahuasca rituals. Refugio Altiplano (www.refugioaltiplano.org) actually specializes in healing/healers and is probably your best bet.
