Frog medicine

-Kambo-

Serving in Southern Utah

Kambo is a frog medicine, filled with peptides that work directly with the lymph system.

It acts on the whole being, bringing balance into the mind, body and spirit; returning them into a state of harmony.

Each of these ceremonies can help the individual learn how to be more conscious and proactive, creating positive changes in their life, while healing on a mind, body and soul frequency.

-These Kambo Ceremonies can be done 1:1 or with a small group of 3.

-Each ceremony is $222 or 3 in a 28 day period for $555.

Sliding Scale options are available for those in need of medicine.

This is more than just Kambo, it’s a ceremony where many modalities dance together to support this experience.

  • In the Amazon Rainforest, this medicine is known to bring happiness to those who take it, to bring luck, and to unblock and circulate the heart chakra among many other benefits. Removing "panema", which is loosely translates to bad energy or anything that dulls a person's experience of joy, peace, and prosperity.

    Kambo, Phyllomedusa Bicolor, comes from a bright green frog which lives in the Amazonian. It’s a sacred medicine used by indigenous tribesman of the Amazon. This medicine is ethically sourced from THE MATSES TRIBE.

    CheyAnne is a certified Kambo practitioner that holds this medicine with integrity and respect while working with this tribe that does the same.

    The secretions are carefully extracted by gently gathering it from the frog's skin before returning them safely back to the jungle. The frogs are not harmed or damaged in the process. This beautiful frog is honored and respected for its ability to heal.

    Kambo is traditionally used as a purgative and a detoxifier, not a psychedelic, although it is commonly grouped with psychedelic plant medicines. It is legal and none psychoactive.

    Kambo is not a poison or venom. Many use this term because of the purging effect it has on the body. It is in fact full of potent bioactive peptides that have great positive effects by activating our bodies OWN healing abilities.

    Kambo is administered into the lymphatic system, through small gates, (superficial burns) made on the skin. Immediately triggering a variety of beneficial chemical reactions in the human body. Waking up the body, healing itself on a cellular level and removing energetic blocks that cause illness and pain. Due to the neuropeptides, it affects the brain and improves cognitive functioning.

    After the medicine is removed, the gates are sealed/closed with dragons blood. A anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-fungal, tree sap with the ability to heal open wounds faster and reduce scarring.

What to Expect

  • The ‘medicine’ is applied by burning tiny holes in the skin with the tip of a glowing stick.

    The effect is immediate, as it runs in the body through the lymphatic system.

    The body becomes warm and the heart beats faster than normal until the person vomits the water they had been drinking in advance. All this lasts about 30 minutes.

  • During a treatment, kambo immediately scans a person’s energy field and starts to work exactly where it is needed. 

    The process is different for everyone and the course of treatment should be planned accordingly.

    For people with addictions, results can also happen fast. 

    Complicated cases may take longer.

    We may call this frog secretion a medicine, but it doesn’t actually work as a typical medicine nor as a drug. It simply wakes up the body’s organs, endocrine system and defense systems to their natural functions. 

  • Kambo can be taken as a single or double treatment, or as an intensive treatment spread over several days and weeks. In some traditions, Kambo is also taken as a vaccine and is administered as 3 treatments over one moon cycle (29.5 days).

    The most effective way to take Kambo when you’re doing it for the first time is to take the medicine 3 days in a row as resistance drops and you into deeper layers each time. The body and mind are in release mode. Imagine doing a cleanse 3 days in a row vs. 3 days in a month. You benefit from both but you as well as I know, three days of cleansing takes you deeper. If that’s not possible, 3 times in a moon cycle works wonders as well. This process may be more suitable for more sensitive individuals.

    I recommend upon receiving the inoculation of 3, refreshing with Kambo once a month, every few months or once a year depending on your health status and needs. The more treatments you have, the deeper this medicine and the purge goes. Some people will need several sessions to fully feel the benefit or be ready to release and let go of the deep stuff.

    Everyone will benefit from a single session, whether they believe in it or not. Every health condition has a different protocol.

  • THIS HEALING WORK IS NEVER, ONE AND DONE, BOOM YOUR HEALED.  

    Things will come up- Kambo is not the blame, nor is any plant medicine. It in fact is giving you exactly what you asked for even when it doesn’t make sense. Yes, a lot can be released from just one sit however, this is not a quick fix. Often this is a HUGE physical release that uncovers the emotional stuff that causes the imbalance. It is important to validate yourself, process, and work with your shadow to integrate this work and create lasting changes.

    I am here to support you in and out of ceremony and also have a reputable list of resources if what you’re needing is outside my scope of practice.

    Healing is linear and it takes time. You didn’t get here over night, so be gentle with yourself and expectations. Things may come up that won’t always make sense in the moment, TRUST it.

    Healing is an investment mentally, emotionally, and physically. If at any time I feel what would support you best, is NOT in my scope of practice, please know, I will guide you to resources for this.

  • From Cosmovisons: "Scientific research on the secretion of this frog started in the 1980’s. Nominated for the Nobel prize, Italian scientist Vittorio Erspamer of the University of Rome wrote that this secretion contains a ‘fantastic chemical cocktail with potential medical applications, unequaled by any other amphibian’.

    So far, researchers have found nine bio- active peptides that have a potent effect on the gastrointestinal muscles, gastric and pancreatic secretions, blood circulation, and on the stimulation of the adrenal cortex and pituitary gland.

    Among the several dozen peptides found in kambô, up to 7% are bio-active.

    They bind with receptor sites situated in the brain, triggering chemical reactions in the human body.

    Phyllomedusin strongly affects intestines, bowels and contributes to deep purging.

    Phyllokinin and phyllomedusin are potent vessel dilators, increasing the permeability of the blood-brain barrier. This facilitates access to the brain of these two, as well as the other active peptides. 

    Caerulein and sauvagine cause a fall in blood pressure accompanied by tachycardia. They stimulate the adrenal cortex and the pituitary gland, contributing to heightened sensory perception and increased stamina.

    Both of these peptides have a strong analgesic effect, enhance endurance, increase physical strength and in general, enhance the capacity to face pain and stressful situations. 

    They possess medical potential as digestive aids, and have demonstrated analgesic effects for those with renal colic, pain due to peripheral vascular insufficiency and cancer pain. 

    Dermorphin and deltorphin are potent opioid peptides 4000 times stronger than morphine and 40 times stronger than endogenic b-endorphines."

Common

Q & A

  • No. It is common to feel “blissed out”, in your body and extreme gratitude after, and that can feel new to many. However, you will not “trip”.

  • Yes. Kambo is legal in the United States and most, if not all, other countries. The only restriction appears to be the Brazilian government’s 2004 ban on Kambo’s commercialization

    Yes. Kambo is legal in the United States and most, if not all, other countries. The only restriction appears to be the Brazilian government’s 2004 ban on Kambo’s commercialization.

  • It is common and usually only lasts about a day. A Gua Sha Facial Tool, is a fantastic way to release the swelling and MOVE the toxins out of the lymphatic System.

  • Your temperature will rise and fall. Overwhelming nausea is generally unavoidable with Kambo and purging is likely—either by vomiting, defecation, or both. Rarely at the same time don’t worry. Other effects include a feeling of pressure in the head, neck, and torso, stomach pain, inflammation of the throat, dry mouth, blurred vision ( parasites can release through the eyes), difficulty moving, and swollen lips and tongue. This is the medicine going to these areas and is very temporary. Typically the kambo experience lasts for about an hour. You may feel a range of feelings, from being tired, blissed out, to feeling energized.

  • A profoundly transformational tool, Kambo medicine is known to increase compassion, courage, emotional stability, and personal sovereignty. It is common to feel really present and in the body after Kambo and less in their heads. Frustration, anger, and anxiety also tend to reduce or dissipate entirely. These positive changes may last several days or several months, depending on the steps you continue to take.

  • Yes. You are not going to be “tripping”. Fruit and tea are always offered after ceremony to raise sugars and break your fast to help any weakness. However, plan to for a healthy, clean meal after you leave and lots of fluids.

  • Once the medicine is removed you should not feel sick. It is not uncommon to have a bottom purge for the day, it is recommended to have a restroom handy when you leave.

  • I highly recommend not working or doing anything that could effect your energy in a draining way for the day. Take a day of SELF CARE and listen to what your body needs.

  • Yes—although kambo scars fade over time, they often won’t disappear completely. Aftercare balms or dragons blood may help to improve their appearance. Many love them as a symbol of this powerful work.

  • We sit/lay ceremony style for sessions (on the ground) So, please come to your session in cozy clothes and let me know of any limitations before so I can support you best. Also, bringing a change of bottoms (just in case) can help ease some anxiety for many.

  • It is important to leave expectations at the door. However, You may feel great physical strength, sharpened senses, and heightened mental alertness. Desirable after-effects like these may take a day to materialize or they could be immediate. They also tend to include a consistently elevated mood, increased physical and mental energy, decreased stress, and enhanced focus. It is common to feel tired too, depending on your process. Make space for the day to be able to honor yourself as need

“Thank you Kambo
.
There are no right combination of words to describe my immense gratitude to the medicine of Kambo. I have been working with this sacred medicine for just over a year and it has helped me cleanse, heal and release in every aspect of my being.
.
When I first learned of Kambo I was terrified of it, because of the purgatory effects and more so what it would mean I had to face within myself.
.
It has been one of my greatest teachers in the “art of letting go”. Kambo has helped me to release deep rooted shame, anger, grief and so much more. It has removed brain fog, brought more mental clarity and creativity, it has helped me to release stuck and stored trauma from my body, but MOSTLY…
.
It has taught me to LISTEN to my body.
.
Just over a week ago I was able to be served, held, witnessed and supported by one of my oldest and dearest friends CheyAnne. Her medicine is powerful, the space she holds is so so safe, and she pushes in all of the right ways.
.
As we sat in this magical ceremony my intentions were to release anger from my body, to witness my inner child in her anger, to see her and hold her in it, and then to allow it to go.
.
It was painful, it was uncomfortable, there were moments of “oh fuck what am I doing” and then there was the release. The years of holding on. The years of pent up sadness for that little girl just longed to be held, safe, and supported.
.
What was so clear and evident by the end of it was how supported she is and has always been by the unseen realms. Her team of support is so massive, so powerful, so sacred, and she chose so wisely her lessons here, now.
.
This medicine has taught me to embrace the purge. To embrace the release. To give gratitude to the ability to let it go.
.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”
