Traditional Andean Amazonian Medicine (MTAAZ)
Dr. Pio Vucetich Nuñez del Prado specializes in the treatment of addiction, combining techniques of Traditional Andean-Amazonian Medicine (MTAAZ) with Psychotherapy.
According to the theory of MTAAZ, addiction is a disease of spiritual deficiency, and should be approached as such. The person feels an emptiness and a need to find meaning in life, and, not knowing how to do so, fills the void with substances.
Addiction is not fought, rather the object of the addiction becomes centered inside oneself. There is a specific protocol of plants to cleanse and detoxify, after which the Ayahuasca ceremonies are performed. When the patient reconnects with their own being, the experience is unparalleled, and often they comment that no consumable substance is equal to the experience of the spiritual encounter.
What we look for in MTAAZ is that a person develops the ability to reconnect to themselves, and becomes even more addicted than they were before, not to a substance or an addictive situation but to themselves, their own being, their own experience, to what is inside. This is what frees them from addiction.
Ayahuasca is a means to open the energetic body and help it to unblock. It is like an elder sister that guides and helps us towards a reunion with ourselves. The experience that one has is not the result of the substance, but the result of reconnecting with
oneself. Therefore, the experience becomes something that is applied in daily life even after the ceremony ends.
When a person connects to themselves, they experience liberation. The spirit is an incredible source of health and creativity, and when one connects with it, they find within themselves the answers to what they need and want in life. The work in the ceremony is reconstructive and restorative, and it begins with reconciling oneself with one’s body and clearing blocked emotions.
