Autoimmune such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, crohns, hyper/hypothyroid, PCOS and PMDD, fertility, parasites, detoxing from chemo and radiation and long term antibiotics, strengthening immunity against viruses, bacteria, and fungus, drug and alcohol addiction, cravings, depression and anxiety, most cases of PTSD, some cases of covid and long covid, imposter syndrome, balancing feminine and masculine energies, clarity, brain fog, and more. It’s important to understand that the way kambo affects everyone is different. Many people with issues like these get great results with Kambo, but there is also the rare possibility that it can be made worse.

Always check with your doctor.

*Kambo is not intended to treat disease or become a substitute for medical care. I am not a doctor nor do I claim to be one.

There is no protocol or prescribed frequency to follow. It is suggested for things such as addiction and autoimmune that you have more frequent sessions in the beginning, however it's important that you are rested and ready for each session. Listening to your body is the best way to determine how often you need kambo.

There are no cookie cutter protocols since every one will have different constitutions, desires, and intentions for using the medicine. It is suggested to have at least 3 sessions of Kambo within a 30 day period to connect with the frog, allow each session to build on the last, and to learn how to navigate and work with the frog in your own way. Especially those with chronic issues or addiction may need to sit with kambo more frequently in the beginning. The better you feel, the less of it you will need. Once you feel you've reached your goal with Kambo, you can listen to your body for when you sit with it again.

Kambo is safe when all medical considerations are abided by and the practitioner is well trained and knows their medicine well. Having a good source for medicine is also important to ensure integrity, freshness, and respect for the frog and its habitat. There have been approx 2% of deaths out of all of the people who use this medicine and the majority of these have been linked to undisclosed or unknown prior medical conditions and from drinking too much water before, during, and after the session.

While it is impossible to completely eradicate any and all risk, the responsible use of Kambo is very safe and even regularly given to young children in the amazon jungle.

Immunosuppressants
If you're taking prescribed medication for autoimmune conditions it is advised that you stop taking the medication (always check with your doctor) for a week prior to your kambo session. Kambo will activate your immune system and can cause reactions with this medication. 

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI)
Must be stopped 3-7 days prior to your session and can be resumed the day after your session. Always check with your doctor before stopping and starting any medications.

Do not take any recreational drugs,  alcohol, psychedelics,  supplements, or caffeine the day of your session. 

NO BUFO or DMT or IBOGA within 30 days before of after kambo

No ayahuasca day of kambo session

Kambo is not a hallucinogen although expansions in consciousness can occur. Rarely people might even see visions of the frog spirit or enter a space of profound meditation despite the discomfort of the medicine. You will be coherent and alert for your session and you'll be able to drive home after your rest.

Safe and respectful harvesting methods are very important to me as the frog is dear to my heart. I am grateful that I learned this medicine and met the frog in its natural habitat of Peru with a Matses tribe member named Robinson who had 35 years of experience of serving. I have been to the areas from which Robbie finds the frogs and learned how he harvests the venom with minimal discomfort felt by the animals. All of them are released after harvesting. Robinson also pays attention to the marks on the frogs to ensure that none are overmilked and they have enough secretion left to fend for themselves. I get all of my Kambo and Sananga from him so when you sit with me, you are also supporting the Matses tribe and their land.

Hape is a traditional snuff that is blown up the nose with a pipe called a tepi. It's made of different blends of tobacco and ashes of plants and has many benefits such as allowing for deep inner exploration, mental clarity, and energetic healing. It is used in Kambo ceremonies for grounding and to aid in the purging process.

Sananga is an amazonian eye drop made from the root bark of the tabernaemontana sananho plant. Drops are administered to the eyes which causes a very short and intense burning sensation before entering into a state of deep relaxation, joy, or bliss. Sananga also helps clear the mind, open the 3rd eye, treat ocular disease, and balance energies. This is not a psychedelic, but a deeply introspective healing medicine.
