KAMBÓ
ABOUT
DETOXIFY YOUR ORGANISM
What is Kambó?
Kambó is a traditional medicine derived from the secretion of the Amazonian tree frog, Phyllomedusa bicolor. Used in ceremonial contexts for cleansing and healing, it contains potent peptides beneficial for physical and mental health. It's known for its detoxifying properties and ability to boost immunity and well-being.
The Legend of Kambó
Kambó originates from a legend among the Kaxinawá in Brazil, where the shaman Kampum, guided by a forest spirit, discovered the healing power of the giant monkey frog to cure his people. After Kampum's death, his spirit infused the frog, naming it Kambó. This ancient practice, once secluded to the Amazon, was introduced to the wider world in the 1990s by the Cobocla people. Today, Kambó is part of a global shift towards alternative healing, offering deep personal and spiritual rejuvenation to those seeking connections beyond conventional paths.
Preparation
Setting: Ceremonies are held in the morning after an ayahuasca night, in a quiet, safe, and sacred space conducive to healing and introspection.
Intention Setting: Participants may set their intentions or goals for the ceremony and share them, fostering a supportive environment.
Fasting: Before the ceremony is important to fast to prepare the body, so participants must wait for breakfast untill the ceremony is over.
WHAT HAPPENS DURING THIS CEREMONY?
A POWERFULL MEDICINE TO
The Ceremony
Skin Preparation: Small areas of the participant's skin, usually on the arm or leg, are lightly burned to create entry points for the Kambó.
Application: The Kambó is applied to the burn wounds, allowing the medicine to enter the bloodstream directly.
Physical Reactions: Participants often experience immediate and intense physical reactions, including heat in the body, increased heart rate, nausea, and swelling of the face and throat. These effects are temporary, lasting about 20-40 minutes.
Hydration: Drinking plenty of water is crucial to help flush out toxins.
Purging: The intense reactions lead to purging (vomiting), which is considered an essential part of the cleansing process, removing toxins and negative energies.
Rest and Integration: After the immediate effects subside, participants rest, allowing the body and mind to integrate the experience. This is a time of reflection and often, profound insights.
SAFETY & GUIDANCE
Kambó ceremonies are always conducted by a knowledgeable and experienced practitioner to ensure safety and provide guidance throughout the process. The crew will monitor participants closely, offering support and managing any adverse reactions that may arise.
