Kambo Treatment in Los Angeles, CA

What is Kambô?

Kambô is one of the most extraordinary natural healing tools available to us. It is a resinous secretion from one of the largest Hylid frogs known as the Giant Waxy Monkey Tree Frog, scientifically known as Phyllomedusa Bicolor. Its secretion is not a sweat nor a poison in the sense that it alone is not capable of causing death or illness.

The secretion is also called Sapo, Dow-kiet, Hunting magic, Ordeal medicine, “Vaccine of the forest” or “Guardian of the Leaf”. Amazonian tribes take Kambô before hunting to ensure greater success. It heightens their senses, strengthens and energizes, allowing hunters to run faster with more stamina, without needing as much food, water, or sleep. It’s frequently used as a jungle medicine to treat snake bites, malaria, infections, and fever.

The results range from nothing visible to miraculous. The modality will go where it’s needed, and you get what you need that exceeds your expectations.

Over the course of three decades, scientists have shown that the Kambô secretion contains a unique and highly complex chemical cocktail of bio-active peptides beneficial to the human body.

What does Kambô treat?

Kambô is a natural method of healing that can reverse or prevent ill health by removing trauma on a cellular level. Kambô can provide healing on a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level.

Kambô is known to be one of the strongest natural ways to increase the immune system.  Its treatments offer an intense detoxification process with anesthetic and anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antibiotic, and anesthetic properties, which helps boost the immune system, clear infections, clear depression, balance blood circulation, lower chronic pain and much more.

It helps clear the body of energy blockages and overall negative energies the tribe call, Panema, which means bad luck.

Kambô ceremonies offer profound and deep healing experiences to help you release mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual blocks that no longer serve you.

What happens during a treatment?

Kambô is intense, powerful, and quick. The unpleasant effects are strong and immediate but over within 20 – 40 minutes.

The top thin layer of skin is blistered with a hot incense that is about 1-2mm in size (very small) and the skin is peeled to expose the epidermis underneath, similar to a small blister when the skin rubs off, there is no blood.

The position and number of the points, we refer to as “gates”, vary depending on your needs. We can do a traditional session where the medicine can be placed on your arms, legs, chest or back or we can do specialized treatments on the meridians and chakras of the body to focus on specific organs for a specific result.

At this time you will be given water to drink. When you have consumed the correct amount of water guided by me, the dried Kambô is mixed with a small amount of water and divided into small dots and placed on your gates.


If you have a series of treatments in the same day we can reuse the same points. The small dots of Kambô are applied to the points. This is the only way to experience the Kambô. It is not safe to ingest it, snort it or to introduce it into the bloodstream directly.

Kambô enters directly into the Lymphatic System so the effects are very fast. Most experience a warm to hot flush on the upper body and face with an increased heart rate. These are the different peptides working on your body.

At this point, different people will respond in different ways such as: dizziness, feeling foggy or spaced out, some can experience shaking, or an occasional faint.

Some may experience swollen lips or face and slight skin tingling. The Kambô will move around your body, scanning it for problems and then going directly to work on those areas. You may experience a throbbing or burning sensation in those areas for a moment. Some people may feel some abdominal discomfort and need to defecate (have a bottom purge).

Once the Kambô has cleansed the body, you will experience a purge where all the toxins come out. This purge is on a physical and emotional level. The purging effects are typically over in about 20 minutes but can last up to 40 minutes or longer.

You may feel tired at this point and need to rest, but within a short period of time after, you will feel the benefits of it. Within an hour or so after the session you can eat and drink normally. Depending on the individual, you may feel the benefits of the session right away or a day or so.

After the session you will be given a snack like hummus, bread, crackers, or soup and hot tea. This snack enables you to hydrate and rebalance your electrolytes. It also gives you the chance to discuss your session experience.

An individual session can take between 2-3 hours. Please allow 3 hours for your session.

FAQs

The number of sessions largely depends on your overall goals and health. For example, if you are trying to get relief from depression, or to release emotional trauma, it’s recommended to do 3 sessions for best results, but some do it once and never do it again. It really is up to the individual.

We can spread the sessions to be once a day for three days or over a few weeks, spending on your readiness and needs.

Every Kambô session is different. I recommend that you give yourself the time to integrate our session and rest after.

We can spread the sessions to be once a day for three days or over a few weeks, spending on your readiness and needs.

Please bring comfortable clothes to do your session. In your treatment, we will suggest the position for your Kambô points.

It is suggested that you bring various layers including, vests, shorts, leggings, jogging bottoms, socks, jumper or hoodie.  For women, you can bring a sports bra for halter neck top with an open back.

We want you to feel comfortable with what you are wearing so that you can just focus on your Kambô journey.

Please note that in Kambo sessions we do not touch or place any points on your head, face or private parts.

All other body areas may be used but these will be agreed between yourself and I, before your gates are burned.

Kambô enters through the lymphatic system so there is no blood involved, because it does not enter the bloodstream.

Depending on your skin and location of the points generally the points slowly fade over time. It may take three-six months, or a year or it may permanently scar.

A tree sap called Sangre de Drago or Dragon’s Blood is applied to any skin openings after your session which is a natural antibacterial that promotes healing. It’s nature’s bandage.

Kambô is very safe when given by a properly trained practitioner. However there are some conditions for which Kambô is contraindicated.

The list is below but it is not an exhaustive list so it’s important to consult a properly trained and skilled practitioner if you have any concerns.

Suitability for Kambô may occasionally depend on the constitution of the person receiving Kambô.

After our consultation, you will be given an electronic intake form to complete that will help us determine if Kambô is safe for your healing needs.
