TRAUMA-INFORMED WORK

WHAT IS KAMBO?
Kambo is also known as sapo or vacina-do-sapo. It's collected from the natural secretions of a frog belonging to the phyllomedusa bicolor frog in the Amazon rain forest.
Kambo is an ORDEAL MEDICINE, but it offers enormous benefits!
SOME OF THE BENEFITS: Kambo helps the body eliminate candida, parasites, toxins, heavy metals, and more. Kambo detoxifies the body through a deep purge-induced cleanse, and in some cases, through the bowels. It can help with chronic disease, autoimmune, anxiety, and depression, and pain management, and also targets physio-emotional conditions. It increases energy and clarity, and dispels panema or bad luck energy. There are numerous scientific studies exploring the peptides in Kambo.

Everyone carries trauma imprints in their bodies. Some trauma is big and obvious, some trauma is accumulative and unseen (unless activated), and some trauma is deeply complex. Using trauma informed-principles, as well as resources from decades of work in the healing arts and with plant medicines, I meet you with deep compassion for you and your experiences, and honour your own inner wisdom.
Some of the trauma-informed principles that I work with:
-
recognizing you as the expert on your body and life experience, and honouring your inner teacher
-
listening with deep attunement to you, and tracking the journey of your nervous system with you
-
encouraging your sense of agency, and using invitational language
-
maintaining professional boundaries with kindness and compassion, and holding a safe and impeccable container for your healing journey
-
offering the tools of titration, and sharing practical methods of regulation and polyvagul resources with you
-
encouraging and supporting a personal integration plan that arises naturally from your own experience and from your inner wisdom
How is this work trauma-informed?
Your comfort is important to us:
We'll open ceremony in community, receive soplando (tobacco smoke) clearing, share our intentions, and receive hapé.
Kambo will be administered person by person in the ceremony space.
You're welcome to stay within the space while fellow participants receive Kambo, or you might prefer to rest outside (not everyone feels comfortable staying in the ceremony space while others receive Kambo).
After you receive Kambo, again, you can choose to stay within the ceremony space, or we can help you move to a comfortable and peaceful spot until it's time for the integration circle.
Booking your medical intake call:
We warmly invite you to book your FREE 30-45 minute Kambo medical intake call AFTER visiting the IAKP website and reading about Kambo. We will determine if Kambo is a fit for you, and then book your ceremony.
The Kambo medical intake call is a professional call, and there is a fee for cancellations within 24 hours of the call. We ask kindly that you arrive at the call prepared.

For over a decade, I have apprenticed myself to the wisdom of expanded states, learning from sound, breath, and the intelligence of the body. I have sat in ceremony with plant medicines in Shipibo and other Indigenous traditions, honoring their teachings as sacred guides. Rooted in animism and the ceremonial ways of Celtic, Andean, and Hawaiian lineages,
