Here is a list of herbs for Cystitis from "Energetics of Western Herbs",
Peter Holmes-
Agrimony
Bearberry
Birch
Blackberry
Caraway seed
Celery seed
Chicory
Cleavers
Grapevine
Lavender oil
Meadowsweet
Melilot
Mint
Parsley seed
Pasque flower
Pipsissewa
Ribwort plantain
Rosemary
Sarsaparilla
Shepherd's purse
Thyme oil
Veronica
Wood Betony

Also a formula for Kidney Cleanse Detox Tea-

In blender put equal amounts of:

Ground Juniper berries
Cornsilk
Uva Ursi leaves
Parsley root and leaf
Carrot tops
Dandelion leaf
Horsetail herbs
Goldenrod flower tops
Orange peel
Peppermint leaf
Hydrangea root
Gravel root
Marshmallow root

Blend and use to make detox tea.

Store in glass jar out of light.

Dosage:
2 cups of the tea consumed 15 minutes after doing your Liver/Gall
Bladder Flush. It can also be drunk at any other time during the day, as
many cups as desired.
Put 1 tablespoon (medium) or 2 tablespoons (strong) of this tea into 20
ounces of distilled water. Be sure to use only stainless steel or glass
cookware. Let the tea sit in the water overnight. In the morning heat up
to a boil, reduce heat and let simmer for 15 minutes. Strain the herbs,
do not discard them, let cool a bit but use hot. Put the used herbs back
into the pot, add 1 tablespoon of fresh herbs and 20 ounces of pure
water. Let sit overnight and repeat whole process again. Keep adding new
herbs to old ones for three days, then discard all herbs and start over.

Hope this helps,I don't know if they are available in Costa Rica, there
would be a similar list of tropical plants that would work.  Nancy
