which means it is a protected area where human intervention is prohibited.

“Natalia & Justice make such a powerful force field when they combine their essences. The sacred container was so divine, welcoming, and allowed me to soften, heal, and trust like never before. The gratitude I feel isn’t something that can be written about. Only felt. And received in the ripple. Thank you

“I honestly couldn’t have asked for anything more. I felt extremely safe to express my true self no matter if it was a hell yes or a hell no. It all felt so genuine & from the bottom of their hearts. Everyone’s needs were thought of & that was so welcoming too. Literally amazing women!”

Natalia Gaytan
Medicine Woman, Cupping therapist
Natalia is a facilitator for transmutation. Her primary healing modalities are; leading cacao ceremony and cupping therapy. Carving out a space of safety for those wanting to go deeper.
Natalia is from a small town in Mexico, where she was first introduced to Ventosas (Fire Cupping) and Curanderismo (Traditional Mexican Folk Medicine). From there, her interest in traditional medicine blossomed. Studying the interwoven aspects of medicine across cultures is of peak interest to her. The way this shows up in her work is through cupping, crystal healing, guided breathwork, sound healing, and hawk medicine. She creates a space of trust for all bodies to soften and breathe.
Natalia's objective in healing is to move with forthright intuition. She aims to be a clear channel to facilitate the movement and transmutation of energy through the body.
