Dr. Rosita Arvigo DN, a native of Chicago, is a naprapathic physician, herbalist, international lecturer and author. She has lived in remote areas of Mexico and Belize for more than forty years. There, she studied with many traditional healers including Don Elijio Panti, the renowned Maya shaman of Belize, and midwife/ herbalist Hortence Robinson. Both of her teachers were recipients of the coveted National Living Treasure Award. Rosita and her husband, Dr. Greg Shropshire, founded Ix Chel Tropical Research Centre in Belize. The organization is dedicated to the preservation and study of medicinal plants of the rainforest. They founded the Belize Association of Traditional Healers; Bush Medicine Camp for children; The Rainforest Medicine Trail; and Rainforest Remedies, an herbal concentrate company. In 1987, they founded the Belize Ethnobotany project with Dr. Michael Balick of the New York Botanical Garden. Rosita is the founder of The Arvigo Institute, which trains practitioners in the Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy and Maya Spiritual Healing. Now retired from clinical practice, Rosita focuses on teaching and writing. She divides her time between Belize, Mexico and Chicago. The Oracle of Ix Chel is her first novel.
