“Welcome. I’m Camilla Garcia. Together, we’ll realign body, heart, and mind.”
Camilla GarciaWho I am
I was born into an Indigenous community in the northern Brazilian Amazon and grew up with plant medicine, prayer and a way of living closely tied to the land. Later I went to Pune and studied Ayurveda formally — pulse reading, marma therapy, the preparation of herbs, individualized diagnosis — and continued my study of meditation in Tibet.
I work with both, because neither on its own explains what I have watched heal. Ayurveda gives me a system for naming what has gone out of balance. The traditions I was born into give me everything else.
Why people come to me
People rarely arrive with one clean symptom. More often it is a pattern that has been building for a while. These are the ones I see most.
-
Exhaustion that sleep doesn’t fix
Waking up already tired. Falling ill often. A body that no longer recovers the way it used to.
-
A nervous system on alert
Thoughts that circle. Lying awake at night. Tension with no obvious cause.
-
Heaviness, and no drive
Nothing quite lands. Things that used to be easy now cost effort. Days that pass without much in them.
-
The feeling of being overwhelmed
Too much at once, and no clarity about what comes first. Pulled in every direction and arriving nowhere.
-
After a rupture
A separation, a loss, a difficult home, a stretch of time when you had to be strong for someone else. The body carries it long after the situation has passed.
This work sits alongside medical and psychotherapeutic care rather than in place of it. For acute symptoms, please also see a doctor or therapist.

What Clients Say
“I arrived feeling exhausted and disconnected from myself. Camilla has a rare ability to make you feel seen without ever judging you. Through her guidance — Ayurveda, movement, and breathwork — something shifted in me. It’s an experience that stays with you long after you return home.”
Carolina, São Paulo“What makes Camilla so special is how deeply personal the experience feels. Nothing is standardized — every treatment, recommendation, conversation, and ritual is thoughtfully adapted to you. At the same time, everything feels incredibly luxurious and effortless. I came expecting a beautiful wellness retreat, but I left with practices and insights that have genuinely changed the way I live.”
Alexander, Florida“Working with Camilla was much more than a retreat. She created a space where I could finally slow down and listen to what I actually needed. Her approach is incredibly intuitive, blending Ayurveda and ancient wisdom in a way that feels completely natural. I left feeling lighter, clearer, and deeply reconnected with myself.”
Sophie, London

Questions People Ask
What happens in a first consultation?
Before we meet you fill in a short questionnaire, so I already know your history when we start. In the session I go through your current symptoms and the rhythms of your days and read your constitution — in person this includes pulse and tongue. You leave with a plan built around food, routine, herbs, breath and rest, and, where it makes sense, a suggested rhythm of follow-up sessions. For a first session I recommend the 90-minute consultation. <a href="/collections/ayurvedic-consultations-energetic-healing">Book a session</a>.
Do you work online, or only in person?
Both. Online consultations are held by video and available worldwide. In-person sessions take place at my practice in Jardins do Itanhangá, Rio de Janeiro, where I am based for most of the year. I travel a few times a year and see clients in person while I am away — message me on WhatsApp at +55 21 97304 2397 to ask when I am next near you. I work in English, Portuguese and Spanish.
What does a consultation cost?
Online consultation: R$900 for 60 minutes or R$1,200 for 90 minutes. In-person consultation and in-person treatment: R$1,200 for 90 minutes. Payment is made in full at the time of booking, by Pix or card. Current prices are always shown on the <a href="/collections/ayurvedic-consultations-energetic-healing">booking page</a>.
How long before I notice a change?
It depends on the work. Energetic cleansing is often felt immediately, within the session itself. Changes that come through food, routine and herbs usually show within days or weeks, and most people notice something in that range. Longer-standing patterns can take months. I will tell you what to expect for your situation rather than promise a timeline.
Where do I find my appointment date?
Once your payment is confirmed you receive a calendar invitation by email with the date, time and, for online sessions, the video link. The account area on this site shows payments and orders, not appointments. To move a session, use the reschedule button in the email you received when booking; for anything else, message me on WhatsApp at +55 21 97304 2397.
Do I need to prepare anything?
Before your first session you fill in a short questionnaire — the link is in the calendar invitation you receive after booking. Beyond that, nothing formal: it helps to note what you have been experiencing and any medications or supplements you take, and to join from somewhere quiet where you can speak freely.
Is this a replacement for medical care?
No. My work sits alongside medical and psychotherapeutic care rather than replacing it. Keep your doctor informed and continue any treatment you have been prescribed.
How do Amazonian ancestral healing and Ayurveda differ?
Both are ancestral traditions. The difference is in how the knowledge travels. Ayurveda was written down and systematised in India over thousands of years, which gives it a shared diagnostic language and a formal training — the one I completed in Pune. The Amazonian tradition I was born into is carried orally, through family, prayer and a direct relationship with particular plants and places, and it is learned by living inside it rather than by studying it. I use the first to understand what is happening in a body, and the second in how I work with it.
Can I cancel or reschedule?
You can reschedule free of charge up to 24 hours before your session, using the Reschedule button in the email you received when booking. To cancel, use the Cancel button in the same email: the refund is issued automatically — 75% with 7 days or more notice, 25% between 24 hours and 7 days, and no refund under 24 hours (or if you miss the session).
