Traditional Knowledge Passed Through Generations
Matses Kambo Training is rooted in the ancient rituals of the Matses tribe of the Peruvian Amazon. For centuries, the Matses people have used the secretion of the Phyllomedusa bicolor frog, commonly known as kambo, to enhance physical endurance, cleanse the body, and sharpen the senses. This sacred ceremony is more than a physical detox; it is a rite of passage that connects individuals to the natural world and the ancestral spirit of the forest. Participants are taught traditional chants, preparation methods, and the respectful handling of the kambo medicine directly by Matses elders.

Holistic Healing Through Authentic Indigenous Practices
Kambo is applied by making small burns on the skin, allowing the secretion to enter the lymphatic system. The Matses training emphasizes not just technique, but spiritual integrity and responsibility. Trainees learn how to administer the medicine in a sacred and controlled environment, respecting its powerful purgative and energetic effects. This process can lead to emotional release, enhanced clarity, and improved physical health. During the training, there is a focus on dietas, fasting, and plant-based guidance to fully align with the spiritual dimension of the medicine.

A Calling for Those on the Path of Sacred Service
Matses Kambo Training attracts individuals who seek more than knowledge—they seek initiation into a way of life. Many of those who undergo the training feel a deep calling to serve others through ceremonial work. The immersive nature of the experience allows participants to build trust with the community, develop humility, and gain a direct transmission of the Matses worldview. This journey is both personal and collective, offering a gateway into the sacred lineage of kambo medicine through dedicated apprenticeship and reverence for the spirit of the forest.
