This Medicine is often referred to as the "vaccine of the jungle”, and is a secretion from the giant tree frog “phyllomedusa bicolor” native to the Amazonian regions.
It is predominately used as an aid for detoxification, purging, immunity boosting, it also has analgesic pain relief properties.
Kambo also increases stamina and strengthens the body and opens the intuitive mind to ‘see’ more clearly.
It is not psychoactive or hallucinagenic, it is legal in most countries and opening administered and accepted in Costa Rica.
Kambo is one of the strongest natural anti-inflammatory, antibiotic, antimicrobial and anesthetic substances found in the world and one of the strongest, natural ways to holistically strengthen the system.

We open by cleansing the space, sharing & setting intentions, welcoming in the allies, asking for guidance from Spirit, harnessing breath techniques and meditating with the spirit of Kambo.
Kambo is administered through tiny burns into the top layer of the skin, these are superficial burns that heal well after the ceremony. Once the medicine is applied, purging may occur (purging bile and toxins via the mouth, toilet purge, sweating, or crying) the purge is energetically a deep release and most cliental feel a lifting of heaviness or stuck energies.
After the purge you rest, restore & integrate.
The ceremony lasts for approximately 2 hours.
The medicine is on the body for around 20min.

So what’s happening to your body during a kambo treatment? Here’s a little bit of froggy science.
Kambo enters the body’s lymphatic system at the site of application.
It contains amino acid chains called peptides, including several that are exorphins – which are produced by amphibians, specifically, and are similar to endorphins.
Some of these exorphins interact with opioid receptors in the human body, causing a sense of well-being and peace.
The peptides + exorphins include tryptophyllin (which stimulates + recalibrates the serotonergic and opioid systems, and increases dopamine), deltorphin (which binds to opioid receptors and results in pain relief), tachykinin peptides (which cause purging), dermaseptin peptides (which increase white blood cell activity), peptides that cause blood vessel dilation, phyllolitorin (which stimulates gastric acid secretion + smooth muscle contraction) + more.
In vitro studies of kambo found possible antifungal properties + showed that it could slow the growth of cancerous cells.

It is ideal to fast at least 8 hours before the Kambo ceremony. If your ceremony is in the morning, No breakfast, coffee, caffeinated tea or juice. Abstain from any supplements or medications unless necessary. You can resume medications after session.
Water, coconut water, herbal tea w/ honey, electrolytes, and salt added to water are okay.
DO NOT DRINK EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF WATER prior to arriving to your session.
DO NOT ABSTAIN FROM SALT IN THE DAYS BEFORE YOUR SESSION.
Before administering the Kambo treatment, you will be asked to drink approximately 2 liters of water to allow for easy purging and cleansing. This water will be purged out.
DIET
Days prior and following the Kambo, It is recommended to adopt a clean diet to reduce any toxic burden on the body. Avoid alcohol, dairy, sugar, and spicy food. SALT IS OKAY.Eat whole, nourishing organic food before and after to best support your body in it’s detox process afterwards. there is no traditional “Dieta” with Kambo and it is not crucial to follow a strict diet before or after the session.
