Kambo Ceremony Eugene, OR

Service Description

The medicine of Kambo Acate supports our body, mind and spirit to detoxify and purify the layers of toxins that have been stored into our system. Kambo is a healer of the Amazonian Jungle whose medicine is supporting us in these times through sitting with the uncomfortable and lerning how to let go in the most humbling and intentional way. This medicine comes from the secretion of the giant green monkey tree frog (Phyllomedusa bicolor) of South America. The frog, with its vibrant green color, lives mainly in the jungles of Acre, in the northeast of Brazil, but can also be found in Bolivia, Colombia, Guyana, Peru, and Venezuela. Indigenous tribes such as the Matsés, Katukina, Yawanawá, and Cashinahua have long worked with Kambo as both medicine and spiritual practice. Traditionally, it is used to: - Cleanse and purify the body and soul - Remove -panema- (which means blocked energy or stagnant energy) - Bring strength, focus, and vitality - Support healing processes and resilience against illness Kambo is considered a sacred spirit and ally in healing. The secretion is collected with deep respect and care. The frog is never harmed, and after medicine is gently taken, it is returned unharmed into the forest. The belief is that if the frog is mistreated, the spirit of the medicine will not work. How Kambo Works: Kambo supports healing by aligning the physical, mental-emotional, and spiritual bodies. Scientifically, the secretion contains unique peptides (chains of amino acids) with profound effects, including: - Deltorphins and Dermorphins: Potent natural opioid agonists that contribute to a lasting sense of well-being after treatment. - Dermaseptins, Phylloseptins, and Phylloaeruleins: Antimicrobial peptides shown to combat bacteria, protozoa, fungi, and parasites. These elements promote cleansing and create a state that many describe as renewed clarity, vitality, and balance. Entering Ceremony Receiving Kambo is more than a physical treatment, it is a ceremonial process of deep cleansing and reconnection. The patterns of discomfort and release that appear during the medicine are temporary, but they help clear space so the body and spirit may regenerate. For this reason, Kambo is often approached as both a purification and initiation into deeper self-awareness.
