Testimonials & Reviews
A Place Where the Soul Awakens
Written by: Psychologist Patricia Meléndez "In the jungle even silence sounds"... I never imagined I would discover this truth until a new journey, full of curiosity and wonder, took me to Hampichicuy, a place overflowing with beauty, embraced by the Shilcayo river and a wonderful chain of green mountains... a place that heals. Its founder, master Javier Zavala, together with a team of professionals who rescue and revalue the traditional knowledge of our culture.
That is why in Hampichicuy we find an alternative of integral health and personal growth united with harmonious integration with Nature, different from what Western culture currently offers us.

I went to Tarapoto after losing my mother in 2019, my dear friend suggested me to meet Javier and get his help. Spending time at Hampichicuy with Javier and Beatriz have been one of the most transformational experiences in my whole life. The retreat center is beautiful and Javier and Beatriz took care of me as if I was part of their family. Javier is a superb spiritual guide, he guided me through some of my biggest fears and helped me face them with love and compassion. He took care of me from a physical and spiritual point of view. I would recommend everyone who is interested in growing, becoming a better person and embracing all the transcendental wisdom from the forest to reach out to Javier.

I have had the privilege of working with maestro Javier at Hampichicuy since I was a young man. Hampichicuy helped me beat my a drug addiction from childhood and help mold me into the man I am today. So much love for this place. Without Javier and Hampichicuy I don’t know where i would be. Javier is the real deal. I lived in tarapoto in 3 years and never found a better healer. The magic is real. Hampichicuy forever!

I visited Hampichicuy in 2018 and 2019 and in a few months I will be there again. It was healing, very relaxing and I especially love the plant diet. This is why I go there again and stay much longer. I want to clear all toxins from my body and heal inside out. Thank you Javier for the wonderful food and ceremonies!
