Kambo derives from the secretion of the Amazonian giant waxy tree frog Phyllomedusa Bicolor.

The secretion is comprised of a unique complex cocktail of bioactive peptides that produce amazing benefits for body and mind. Italian pharmacologist Vittorio Erspamer of the University of Rome was nominated twice for the Nobel Prize and is considered to be the first scientist to analyze Kambo in the laboratory concluding that Kambo contains a“​fantastic chemical cocktail with potential medical applications unmatched by any other amphibian.”

The benefits of Kambo stem from the bioactive peptides and neuropeptides found in the Kambo secretion. The bioactive peptides found in Kambo exert a positive effect in humans due to their health-promoting properties. They can exert several beneficial effects like preventing diseases or modulating the physiological systems once they are absorbed in the human body. These peptides perform a broad range of functions that can be involved in the gastrointestinal system such as the anti-obesity and satiety peptides, the cardiovascular system such as anti-hypertensive, anti-thrombotic, and hypo-cholesterol peptides, the immune system such as anti-microbial, and immune-modulatory peptides, and the nervous system such as opioid peptides.

Tribes of the Amazon often refer to Kambo as “Hunting Magic” as it strengthens the physical body as well as the mind. Kambo brings energy and stamina into the body and sharpens the senses. It makes the mind still and allows one to think clearly. The small things that bother us in our day to day life does not seem to be as significant following a Kambo session, allowing one to focus on the things that truly matter.

Client Perspectives

After my Kambo session, I slept a lot and woke up feeling groggy. After moving and eating I now feel new. My body on the inside feels clean and is energized. My head feels free and open, and my taste and smell (after a year and a half not having it) is returning. My skin feels very soft. I feel that the kambo experience is the exact experience I needed to help me on this new journey I am stepping into. I feel it’s helped me to cleanse from the past and feel renewed in this life I am choosing to live, not for others but for myself. It feels wonderful to learn to choose myself and put me first. I truly enjoyed connecting with the other women, to feel the empowerment of women was so beautiful and I look forward to more. Thank you Stacey for the wonderful kambo ceremony!

Stacey’s presence exudes safety. She has been a landing pad for all that I hold, meeting me without judgement or expectation.

Stacey’s offerings have been moments and experiences of tangible growth for my personal journey and I often describe them as life changing.

I’ve been empowered and am so grateful to get to participate in all that she offers.

I will never wish I hadn’t invested in myself in such a powerful way, rather, only wishing I had found her and these offerings sooner!

I want to thank you for the opportunity to experience kambo healing with you. From the little research I had done about kambo, I knew that the experience could be intense and I was certainly nervous. Your calm strength held me with the surest hands and your confidence in the process became my confidence. Any lingering fears I had melted away as you explained what would unfold. Once the medicine started to work and my fears sparked again, you continued to hold the process with the love and firmness that allowed me to have a full healing experience. Thank you for bringing this medicine! I am grateful to the kambo, but I am especially grateful to you!

Truly.
