ABOUT ELSITA

Elsita offers a practical modern approach to her clients, infused with South American tradition.


Elsita feels fortunate to have been
taught powerful healing techniques and modalities for cultivating confidence and purpose.

She is passionate about anatomy & physiology, the body’s capacity to self-heal, the benefits of plants, nature, nutrition as medicine & sensory enrichment; yet also the importance of spiritual and energetic hygiene and a holistic and organised approach to lifestyle, property design and management for our overall wellbeing.

Elsita is also known as ‘the Animal Curandera’ for her strong connection to the Animal-Spirit world, their medicine, in addition to working with both animals and humans.

Elsita comes from a grandmother lineage of
mestiza women healers

Her lineage is Chibcha from the Andes.

Elsita’s great-grandmother and grandmother were curanderas and parteras (traditional healers and midwives) of the indigenous mountains (Muisca and Panche tribes) of Cundinamarca, Colombia, where her family is from and still resides. For generations her family have traditionally grown and harvested Cacao (roasting it on the outdoor wood-fire before grinding it by stone), Tabaco and other sacred medicines.

Through years of traditional apprenticeship, Elsita is being initiated by her elders to walk the path of the ancient ways of the Ancestors. She is a guardian of sacred Cacao, a shamanic and energy-medicine healer, a channel, a medical and nutritional intuitive, a ceremonial guardian and leader, a certified health kinesiologist, and an animal & equine healer and communicator.
She also has an intrinsic ability to structure and organise.

Elsita dedicates her service to the Ancestors, sacred medicine, plant spirits, animals spirits, and sacred energy medicine, which is channeled and weaved during her client sessions.

Elsita is humbled to be on the life-long Curandera path

She continually enjoys researching topics in between client sessions, within and around her field including that of the land and its indigenous Caretakers; and of course making time to further work on herself in both shadow and light work.


Elsita feels these are instrumental and essential as a healer, and for her own wellbeing.

Elsita was born in Colombia and has lived internationally
In the French countryside, USA’s suburbs and coastal plain, the Canary Islands and mainland Spain, UK & Colombia’s urban jungle, as well as the Caribbean, Pacific, the Andes, Mexico, and South America’s jungles, all of which has given her an appreciation of the needs & dynamics of a multicultural society.


Elsita is fluent in Spanish, English, French.
