Nicolina Ruiz ⟨·⟨·⟨·

Welcome! My name is Nicolina, I am a Panamanian-American herbalist, artist, medicine woman, and wildcrafter. Casa Alchemista Botanica is a modern botanica rooted in the ancestral healing traditions of Latin America.

I create herbal remedies, lead cultural healing rituals, and hold space for reconnection to the plants, to spirit, and to your inner wisdom.

My work blends the art of traditional Curanderismo with modern herbalism, divination, and earth-based healing. I believe we are all our own healers, my role is simply to guide you home to that truth.
