I’ve never ever had such a good massage! Ajna is so lovely and you can easily get in contact with her and only reserve your appointment via WhatsApp - we even got a 15% discount! My boyfriend had the Inca Massage and I enjoyed the Hot Stone Massage - so incredibly good! Everything is clean and the towels get changed after every client! They pay so much intention in the little things which make you feel comfortable! The entire room smells beautifully of essential oil and is pleasant heated up, so you can absolutely relax and totally enjoy your massage! We even got massaged half an hour more than actually supposed for the same price! We felt in love with this massage so we came straight back on the next day. Definitely recommendable and you shouldn’t miss out on this amazing unique massage experience in Cusco - especially after an exhausting hike!

My fiancé and I came here after a 5 day Salkantay trek and got the Inca massage. We found vitality by one of the women standing outside offering a 20 sole massage, and saw that they had good reviews on trip advisor and thought we’d give them a shot They have a whole menu of massage options as well as manicures and pedicures. We chose the Inca massage for 50 soles each, which included aromatherapy, reflexology, Swedish massage, and hot stone massage full body for one hour For the price and the services, this is a great deal. The space is small and all of the tables are separated by curtains, so you can hear whenever someone comes in or if people are getting their nails done and chatting, but they play music so wasn’t an issue for us at all. We have already recommended this place to our friends from our trek and will be back if we do the ausgante circuit.

Ayahuasca ceremonies and San Pedro retreats in Cusco - Peru, for personal development, life-path insight and healing of mind, body and soul.
Reviewed By DheaChen - Atlanta, United States
Cusco is a special place, and the Healing Tree Center is a more special haven. In the midst of the pandemic, Andres was incredibly accommodating and knowledgeable in coordinating our journey: 3 Ayahuasca and 1 San Pedro, totaling to a 6-day worth of stay over the new year. Because the center is located on a hill about half an hour away from the city, the altitude adjustment period was helpful. Unfortunately, the main office had some issues with its credit card processing machine, so we had to scramble for cash. Eventually, we paid the remaining balance with PayPal instead, and we were good to go. The day prior to going to the center, we also went through the medical checks while chugging down some volcanic water at the main office. In order to detox, both my husband and I downed 4 big cups of the water each. The water itself was quite refreshing with its coolness (temperature), tinge of saltiness (taste), and mild sulfuric odor. Obviously, drinking a huge amount of water in one sitting is never a walk in the park, but we started running for the toilet after the 3rd cup. The next morning, Andres and the driver picked us up from our lodging in town and rode together to the center. Once we got there, we were warmly greeted by and immediately sat down for introductions with Hanan, the english-speaking staff, Maestro Nasario, the Andean shaman, and Maestro Marcial, the Shipibo shaman. After a brief freshen up, we completed the coca unification, individual coca leaves readings, and kuti cleaning ceremonies. Then, we rested. Since the medicine of Ayahuasca has different effects and purposes for each person, I shall refrain from sharing the details. But, each ceremony started with prep around 6.30 pm with the pulse oximeter and blood pressure readings by the nurse. This nurse stayed throughout the duration of our ceremonies, vigilantly checking on our physical well being. Of course, the maestro was there to conduct the ceremonies, connecting us with the spiritual world while chanting the icaros and keeping everyone safe for a good 3 to 4 hours each night. And Hanan would help interpret, manage our energies, sing songs, and fetch us hot water bottles. The concoction was actually palatable, not too bitter though quite earthy. The first dosage was the normal dose, adjusted at each subsequent night. With our differing intentions, my husband's most difficult night was the 2nd night, which was coincidentally the only night where he vomited. As for me, the 3rd night was the most challenging night, but also the most amazing. Nonetheless, I purged all 3 nights. Regardless of our different journeys, Ayahuasca was truly hard work. We had to really work through the pains with honesty. Ultimately, we had to work on ourselves to be truly rewarded with the healing benefits. The kind nurse, Hanan, and maestro were there to ensure our safety, but we had to seriously work on ourselves. In other words, we got to fight our own mental battles and win over them. Physically, my vertigo and my right ear problem were gone after the 3rd ceremony. And it was so nice to be able to ring in the new year with a few wonderful Peruvians. We then chatted for a while to celebrate the nice conclusion to 2020. The 4th day at the center was chill day, with only the Pachamama offering ceremony done. The food continued to be light and healthy. The next day was the San Pedro ceremony with Maestro Julio and his adorable daughter, Elisabeth. We did the coca unification prior to drinking the San Pedro. This concoction was congealed, almost pudding like if drunk cold. We had to drink one big cup, and I almost couldn't keep it down. After some time for digestion, we went to walk the hills around the center to connect with the universe. The maestro asked us to drink more, but we were good with mild effects already. We moved to the shades and ate, did the flowering ceremony, then had to head back to the center when rain started pouring. The walk back was when the effects were surreal for both of us, our eyes went into 4K mode where colors were just incredibly vivid. We concluded with another Pachamama offering ceremony. I forgot to mention that maestro was a pure Incan descendant and Elisabeth was his cute (not so helpful) assistant, being the typical 13 yo girl. A few more hours passed with relaxation. Compared to the Ayahuasca, the San Pedro was much gentler. We had a late dinner so as not to cut off San Pedro's effects too early as we were told that it can last up to 10 hrs, with the first 6 hrs being the strongest. Dinner was fun, conversing with Hanan and his expecting partner. The next day was our departure, very sadly. There was another couple that arrived in the morning, so we didn't get to say bye to everyone. But the driver was ready to take us back to town anytime we chose. Interestingly, all of the maestros would offer handicrafts for sale at the conclusion of our interactions that we wished we had more soles with us then. Andres followed up with a gracious email within a few days time, offering continuing support to our experience. The Healing Tree Center certainly lives up to its name and promise. The price point is so affordable compared to some other retreat centers, and I'm sure the HTC is superior. As a first time medicine taker, I researched extensively. And HTC was one that seemed to truly want to help people heal and grow through plant medicine. The schedules were flexible according to our needs. The center was so clean and open, among some of the most beautiful hills and gorgeous nature. Cusco's mornings and nights are chilly, around 46F, despite being in its summer season. The maloka (ceremony room) and our room were rather cold, but there were somewhat non powerful heaters available. The layers of wool blankets would get you hot though. Most importantly, the people were some of the most genuine human beings we've ever known. Everyone was so warm and welcoming, not to mention funny. Although Peru has somehow become inundated with drugs tourism, the HTC is not that. Its authenticity is very much reflected in all of the processes. We were so well taken care of at the HTC that we left filled with so much gratitude for life.
