Help us to place the Spa Amazon in the digital age and to show the world a new concept of health and wellness! We want to bring the spirit of the Amazon to you!

The Amazónia Spa was born in 2009 with the mission to combine the ancestral sacred shamanic-based  teachings of Amazonian Indians with the latest technology in the field of aesthetics, health and welfare. In the Amazon culture, body and soul are an indivisible unit. In Amazónia Spa, we take care of body and spirit, through the alliance of natural aesthetic treatments and relaxing massages always with the goal of spiritual harmony and an immersive experience in the indigenous tradition of the Amazon culture.

This is a very exciting time in the life of our company. The team grew and we began a new stage of growth and internationalization. We want to expand into the following four areas:

  1. Create the brand AmazóniaSpa, with a logo, a new corporate image, a revitalized website with new features for e-commerce, scheduling treatments and "responsive design";
  2. Move the new facilities to a bigger place and expand our business into new markets;
  3. Create an e-commerce platform with a new line of natural, aesthetic and artistic products in order to bring the Brazilian Amazon to the whole world;
  4. Start a range of workshops and seminars on Amazon traditions, natural medicine, alternative medicine, healthy living, etc.

In this campaign, we ask for your help for the first point of our expansion plan: the creation of the new website and the new corporative image. Your help in exchange for vouchers will allow us to take the brand AmazóniaSpa to your home and beyond.
