“Boost your immune system”
What is Kambo?
Kambo (Phyllomedusa Bicolor) originates from the Amazon and has been used by indigenous tribes for thousands of years for various healing purposes. Kambo is the secretion of a frog from the Amazon that is administered through small burnt holes in the top layer of the skin. The peptides of the Kambo are very similar to those of humans, allowing Kambo to open up the cells. This ensures a deep cleaning process on a cellular level, everything that does not belongs in the cells will be removed. This thorough cleaning benefits body and mind which results in, among other things, more energy, strength & clarity.
Kambo secretion contains a unique and very complex cocktail of bioactive peptides that are very similar to the peptides of the human body. Peptides consist DNA, RNA and water that is made of a combination of amino acids. A peptide can have a wide variety of functions in the body. Hormones, for example, are peptides that transmit signals between glands and cells to regulate functions such as sleep and blood sugar regulation. Antibiotics are also peptides and they inhibit the growth of microorganisms in the body. These are just 2 examples of the 9 identified peptides in Kambo.
Traditional Application of Kambo
Originally, Kambo is used in the Amazon because of the following 3 functions:
It is used for hunting to energize, strengthen and cleanse the body and mind.
It is used as medicine against infections, fever, infections, malaria and snake bites.
It is used to clear dark or negative energy, also known as Panema. When Panema is cleared, everything becomes easier, obstacles can be overcome and life flows in a more natural flow. Kambo is also used for improving fertility.
Western application of Kambo
Thanks to globalization, Kambo has also been discovered for some time in the Western world, first reported in 1925 by a Frenchman. Just as the tribes from the Amazon are now also using Western knowledge and medicines, we now also have the opportunity to make use of their knowledge and experiences. I am convinced that sharing knowledge yields benefits for all parties. Especially when there is a fair exchange (see IAPK).
Kambo can provide support and healing for people suffering from anxiety, depression, PTSD, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, HIV, arthritis, diabetes, candida, herpes, high blood pressure, cancer, fertility problems, recurrent infections, etc.
In general, people report:
● Getting sick less
● Have more energy and stamina
● Mood improvement
● Clarity of the mind
● Increased awareness and focus
● Resilience against stress and fatigue
● An increased sense of well-being
● Feeling emotionally strong and empowered
● Overcoming blockages and obstacles
● Letting go of traumas and past problems
● Generally more balanced
● A deeper connection with your truth and life path
About the Kambo frog
Kambo is a frog that is abundant in the Amazon due to the fact that it has only a few natural predators. The frog secretion I use is ethically harvested with great care and respect for the frog as the Matsés tribe have a great bond with the frogs and believe it is very bad to harm the frogs. Kambo is applied through small burnt holes in the skin.
IAKP trained
I did my Kambo training with the IAKP. The International Association of Kambo Practitioners is a non-profit organization that wants to support and encourage Kambo in a safe, responsible and professional way through training, awareness, knowledge development and sharing, personal skills development, research and training.
The IAKP is committed to the sustainability of the tribes that possess the knowledge of this amazing medicine and so generously share it with us. The IAKP is currently working with other key participants in improving educational resources and health care for the remote communities of the Matsés tribe in Peru. Source: IAKP
How does a Kambo session work?
Make sure you have little planned on the day of the Kambo session and that you have enough time to rest afterwards.
Preparation 60 minutes
You do not eat anything 8-10 hours before the session, so that your stomach is empty. We start with a small consultation in which we talk about what you would like to receive from the Kambo, where on the body the Kambo will be placed and the number of gates that will be carefully burned. We zoom in on physical & mental issues and investigate what your focus/intention is. If it is your first time working with me, I will work with a test point and basic treatment (arm or leg). A test point is a safe way to test how you react to the Kambo and to rule out unusual reactions (which are very rare). I will also smudge the space and do a small cleansing ritual before the session.
The session 40 minutes
15 minutes before the session starts, you drink 1.5 – 2 liters of water. As soon as the Kambo is applied to the gates you will notice that your heart will start beating faster and the energy will flow throughout your body and stops in the places that require attention. You start flushing which means that you get hot and your head turns a bit red. Then comes the drop of blood pressure and soon the time comes that you start the purging process. Purging can be done in several ways, often through vomiting, but the downward purge on the toilet is also common. Sometimes emotions are released, which can also be seen as a purge. As a practitioner, I am your spaceholder, which means that I am with you without judgment or unnecessary intervention. I keep a close eye on you throughout the process and at the same time give you the space to experience your process. During the session. I use instruments and music to support your process. I keep a close eye on (safety) protocols and give lovingly support where necessary while I gave space for you to go through your own processes.
60 minutes after the session
Immediately after the session you can rest under a warm blanket. This moment of rest is an essential part of the session, because this is often the moment that you can have insights and realizations. While you are recovering from the session, I will prepare a nutritious meal (soup) for you in the meantime that you can enjoy after the session. When you are ready, you can share your experiences and ask any questions. As soon as you are as good as your old self we will say goodbye. Now it’s up to you to take care of your energy and fill the space you have created with things you would like to welcome into your life. The Kambo will help you get into a natural flow and attract positivity. I recommend following a kambo diet at least 7 days after the session which includes reducing sugar, no tabaco, alcohol or other substances and sex.
