What is Kambô? 

Kambô is a traditional Amazonian amphibious medicine derived from the secretion of the Phyllomedusa bicolor or giant monkey frog. This non-psychoactive substance is chocked full of bioactive peptides that are utilized quickly by the body. Our body needs peptides as messengers that determine how we digest and use energy from our food, how hungry we feel, our hormone function, and also brain and cellular function. In other words, Kambô is one of the strongest anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal substances on the planet. 

Kambô has promising research and field experience that have shown benefits for the following conditions:

  • Migraines

  • Depression/PTSD/Anxiety

  • Auto-Immune Disorders

  • Neurological Disorders including Chronic Fatigue & Parkinson’s

  • Cancer

  • Chronic Pain

  • Deeply Rooted Toxins including Heavy Metals, Fungus & Mold

  • Gut Disorders including Parasites & Candida overgrowth

  • Addictions of any kind

  • Negative or non-beneficial attached energies

  • Chronic Fatigue

  • Viruses including HIV & Herpes

This is not an exhaustive list. We are only at the beginning stages of combining modern science with this gift from ancient Amazonian people. Currently, there are more than 70 kambô patents registered in the pharmaceutical world. Stay tuned to more knowledge and understanding of how peptides work in the body. Know kambô is most natural, highest potency peptide supplement available.

Thanks for subscribing!

  • IS KAMBÔ LEGAL?
    Yes, it is legal in the US and most other countries. Since it’s not a psychedelic, it will not get you high, and is seen as safe by all knowledgable about kambô.
  • WHAT TO EXPECT?
    You will arrive fasted for no less than 7 hours and no more than 14 with only enough water to wet your whistle (sips here and there). Drink up to 1 cup of water every hour up to two hours before your session. Ensure you’re hydrated with electrolytes prior to fasting. A smoke cleansing will be offered to you upon arrival where we might discuss your intention for the ceremony. Sananga eyedrops will be offered. We will discuss where you’d like your points or gates. Typically 1-5 for first session. I burn gates with a small incense stick, only through the first two layers of your skin.The kambô enters through the bloodstream. You will drink up to 3/4 L of water while I prepare the kambô. Effects are usually felt in 1-5 minutes starting with a flush and elevated heartbeat. It feels awkward because there isn’t any movement but know it’s just a moderate exercise level. You might also feel heartbeat in the ears, lightheadedness/dizziness, nausea/purging, numbness and tingling of extremities and perhaps a sensation of swelling in the throat. All these are very normal reactions and won’t last longer than your session. Remember dots can be taken off anytime. I will remind you to breathe and we’ll leave the dots on for 20 minutes total. All symptoms will subside within 5-10 minutes of removing kambô. You will be able to rest and recover as long as necessary. Typically 10-30 minutes is all you’ll need. Before or after resting, hapé will be offered.
  • WHAT IS SANANGA & HAPÉ?
    Sananga, known as bëcchëte to the Matasés, are very powerful eyedrops extracted from the shrub Tabernaemontana undulate. It‘s used traditionally to improve vision for hunting. We also appreciate it taking us ”out of our heads” and into our bodies prior to a kambô session. Its effects can last up to several days to weeks. Sitting with sananga can be challenging due to the burning one feels when the drop are applied. This is due to the tannins from the purified Amazonian river waters used during extraction. It’s always an option but not necessary during a kambô session. Hapé (ha-pay) or Rapé (ra-pay) is a sacred shamanic stuff typically made with ash from medicinal trees and sacred, wild tobacco. It is blown into the nostrils through self-administration or by another. Hapé has a very grounding and balancing effect on the mind, body and spirit and has been used throughout the Amazon for hundreds of years. There are different types of blows that help in various ways. This can be discussed as an option before, during or after your kambô session.
  • IS KAMBÔ TOXIC? :: WHAT’S A PURGE?
    You may have read that kambô is toxic and it’s more than likely due to the purging effect it can have on the body. Please know that your body is going through a slightly raising and lowering of the blood pressure along with lots of beneficial peptides entering at one time. Some of the peptides aid in smooth muscle contraction (think digestion) and this peristaltic action, while in a fasting state, can cause digestive secretions. This can cause stomach contents to be forced out the mouth or anus. Also know that purging isn’t just vomiting. It can be laughing, crying, shaking, sweating and even needing the toilet for a south purge. Purging is NOT necessary and some will sit with kambô and never have any need to do so. However, if you’re feeling sick and your body is in the need, please allow things to progress naturally. It’s only the peptides at work.
  • WHAT ARE CONTRAINDICATIONS?
