THE FROG PRINCE

KAMBO

What is Kambo?

ORIGINS

Kambo (also known as Sapo) is magnificent medicine extracted from a specific Amazonian tree frog (Phyllomedusa bicolor). The skin of the frog secretes a liquid that is harvested and kept on sticks. This medicine contains over 100 different chemical constituents, which results in a profound opportunity for healing and detoxing. The most famous of the alkaloids in Kambo is a series of peptides that trigger temporary hyperactivity in the immune system. While working with Kambo can be a very intense experience, his journey offers a short duration, is not psychotropic, and he offers a long list of therapeutic benefits.


About Kambo

Kambo is applied through superficial burns that pierce the first layer of the skin. This gives the medicine immediate access to the body through the lymphatic system. Kambo is known as Warrior Medicine; he helps participants tap into our strong, resilient core, and he shows us how capable we are of handling discomfort and intensity.

Kambo’s magical peptides are just beginning to receive the study and reverence they deserve, but they are known to help with a massive list of ailments, including chronic pain, hormonal imbalances, lymphatic blockages, immunity deficiencies, and an almost limitless list of diseases and illnesses.

The shamanic use of Kambo is native to multiple Amazonian tribes, especially in Brazil. The word “Kambo” comes from the Kaxinawá tribe. Many indigenous tribes still work with frog medicine for overall health, immunity, wellbeing, and in preparation for a big hunt.

The heart of the Kambo ceremony experience often involves a big purge. This release helps to remove toxicity, energetic blockages, and stuck emotions and is a signature of how the medicine helps us to heal.

Kambo is an extremely strong physical experience, so it’s essential to always work with a trained practitioner. He can raise and lower blood pressure at turbo speed, so it’s common that folks pass out, and so it’s even more crucial to have someone watching over you throughout the process.
