About this Retreat
She is the creator and leader of the Inca Shipiba Center coming from the Contamana community along the Ucayali river. She’s 63 and has almost 50 years of experience with Ayahuasca and plant medicines which you can hear in the countless Icaros she sings during ceremonies. She’s one of the most powerful female shamans in Peru at the moment, one of the very few who owns her own retreat center and attracts guests from all over the world. She’s young enough to lead a ceremony with lots of energy, but also wise and grounded enough to hold a safe space. Her energy is very caring, giving her guests an experience guided by love and light.
During ceremonies she is supported by her daughter Sara and son Wilson. Their huge wisdom of medicinal plants will support you with many health issues. She also offers a medicinal massage or plant vapor saunas that greatly support the healing process.

This name suggests a connection to ancestral roots and a profound understanding of ancient traditions, embodying a harmony between past and present
Daughter of Maestra Matilde, Sara is a being full of light and it’s rare that you will see her without a smile on her face. She adds a lot of love into the ceremonies with her Icaros song but also with her ukulele and medicine song. As the younger generation, she is great at blending the long tradition of the Shipibo Icaros with the new age medicine music adding soothing energy to the sometimes hard work. Together with her brother and mother, they create a powerful trio of voices that guide you through the darkness into the light.
Son of Maestra Matilde, studying under the maestras guidance has allowed him to combine the typical strong masculine style of Shipibo Icaros songs with the softer high pitched feminine, creating his beautiful melancholic style. A very talented singer who’s balancing the feminine energy of the family without overwhelming it. Wilson has also trained to serve Kambo frog medicine with the Matses tribe and is always honored to offer his services to deepen your process of healing.

Details of this retreat
Inca Shipiba Retreat – Traditional Amazonian Plant Medicine Healing
Inca Shipiba is a healing center led by a Shipibo family in the heart of the Amazon Rainforest near Nauta, Peru. Guided by Maestra Matilde, the retreat follows the Shipibo lineage of plant medicine practice, honoring ancestral knowledge and offering it in a responsible and grounded way.
During your stay, you will enter a master plant dieta, a traditional process that supports physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. Each participant is guided individually, and Maestra Matilde selects a teacher plant according to your personal process and readiness.
Some of the master plants we work with include:
Bobinsana – supports emotional healing and heart opening
Ajo Sacha – used for cleansing and strengthening the energetic body
Chiric Sanango – associated with grounding, resilience, and courage
Uña de Gato (Cat’s Claw) – known for purification and physical support
Noya Rao – traditionally connected with clarity and spiritual alignment
Ayahuma – regarded as a plant of protection and inner strength
Chuchuhuasi – traditionally used for vitality and physical grounding
Toe (Brugmansia) – a powerful and carefully guided plant teacher used only when appropriate and under strict traditional supervision
The retreat begins with a purification ritual using tobacco, an essential plant in Amazonian medicine. For those who choose, kambo may also be offered to support cleansing before entering deeper ceremonial work.
Ayahuasca ceremonies are held in the Shipibo tradition, conducted in darkness and guided by icaros, sacred healing songs sung by Maestra Matilde, Maestra Sarita and Maestro Wilson. These ceremonies create space for deep introspection, emotional release, and reconnection with one’s purpose and direction in life.
This retreat is intended for individuals who are prepared for sincere inner work. It may support those navigating addiction, emotional pain, trauma, or disconnection from purpose. It is also appropriate for participants with previous experience in plant medicine who wish to deepen their path through a structured and traditional dieta.
Inca Shipiba offers a respectful and protected environment where participants can work closely with the plants of the Amazon while directly contributing to the preservation of Shipibo ancestral wisdom
