Kambo Sacred Art

It’s important to understand that Kambo is not a “medicina” in the clinical sense. While it has been used by indigenous tribes in the Amazon for ritualistic and spiritual purposes, there is no scientific evidence to support that Kambo is an effective treatment for medical conditions. Kambo involves applying the secretion of the Phyllomedusa bicolor frog to the skin, which can cause intense physiological reactions such as vomiting, sweating, and increased heart rate. These effects are part of the ritual shamanic experience, but they do not constitute a medically recognized form of treatment or therapy.Kambo practitioners are not medical doctors. They are typically trained in the administration of the practice through specific teachings from indigenous traditions or through informal apprenticeships. However, this training does not make them qualified healthcare providers. They are not licensed to diagnose, treat, or manage medical conditions. While some may have expertise in Kambo ceremonies and the cultural practices surrounding them, they do not possess the medical knowledge or credentials required to provide healthcare.It’s crucial to approach Kambo with caution, recognizing that it does not replace professional medical care. If you have a health concern, consulting with a licensed healthcare provider is always the safest and most reliable course of action. Kambo should be seen as a spiritual or ceremonial practice, not a substitute for medical treatment or advice.
