Execution:

A Kambo ceremony is carried out under the guidance of an experienced practitioner. First, the participant’s skin is lightly punctured with a burning stick to create small openings. The Kambo secretion is applied to these openings, which then enters the bloodstream. The reaction begins quickly and usually includes vomiting, sweating and swelling. These reactions are considered part of the healing crisis that begins the detoxification process. The ceremony typically lasts between 20 and 60 minutes, with acute symptoms subsiding after about 30 minutes.

Historical and cultural background:

Kambo has deep roots in the traditions of the indigenous peoples of the Amazon, particularly the Matsés, Katukina and Yawanawá. These tribes use kambo not only as a medicine, but also to enhance hunting skills by sharpening the senses and increasing stamina. The ceremonies are often led by experienced shamans who pass on the knowledge and practice from generation to generation. Kambo is also used as a spiritual tool to dispel negative energies and strengthen the connection to nature. The traditional use of Kambo demonstrates the deep relationship these cultures have with their environment and their spiritual beliefs, resulting in a holistic approach to healing.

Current research and study situation:

Current research on Kambo focuses on the diverse biologically active peptides contained in its secretion. Scientists have identified a number of peptides, including phyllocaerulein, dermorphin and bombesin, that have potential therapeutic properties. These peptides have been shown to have anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antimicrobial effects. Some studies are also examining the immunomodulatory effects of kambo, suggesting that it may boost the immune system and help fight infections. In addition, the role of Kambo in the treatment of depression and anxiety is being researched, as it acts at a neurochemical level and promotes well-being. However, the research is still at an early stage and further clinical trials are needed to confirm the full therapeutic potential and safety of Kambo.
