What is Kambo?

Kambo is secretion from the Amazonian giant monkey frog (also known as Sapo locally to Peruvians) that consists of the cocktail of a combined peptide from the Phyllomedusa bicolor.  This medicine is well known around Peru and Brazil as the “vaccine of the forest.” It is most easily understood as a detoxifying, purgative, immune-boosting substance and a powerful treatment for chronic pain and drug dependency.

About the benefits of Kambo

The secretion from Phyllomedusa Bicolor contains short chains of amino acids, known as peptides, that affect gastrointestinal muscles and blood circulation and stimulate the brain's adrenal cortex and pituitary gland. While there are currently no clinical studies that definitively show kambo’s efficacy, the properties of Kambo peptides make it a promising treatment for the following conditions:

Pattern Work + Kambo

Replacing our patterns with the Consciousness of the Heart

Pattern Work is a therapeutic and self-inquiry process that explores the emotional, mental, and energetic patterns formed throughout childhood and life experiences. These patterns, often rooted in fear, shame, stress, or survival become embedded not only in the mind but also in the body, shaping how we relate to ourselves, others, and the world.

Pattern Work gently guides awareness from ego-based coping mechanisms back into heart consciousness, transforming fear into courage and shame into self-love.

Through in-depth consultation with Innana, clients are invited to share their stories and identify recurring challenges such as anxiety, self-doubt, difficulty with self-worth, or emotions that have been hidden or avoided. Together, we trace these experiences back to their origins, observing how they developed over time and how they now manifest physically, emotionally, and energetically. This work involves mapping patterns within the body: identifying which chakras may be blocked, where patterns are stored in organs or tissues, and whether a challenge stems from a core wound or tangential issues. Pattern work becomes a living chart of the body and the aspects within it that are seeking healing and transformation.

For those working with Kambo, this process helps clarify intentions and communicates core issues to the medicine of Kambo, allowing treatment to be guided by the client’s lived experience and the intelligence of the medicine itself.

For those not working with Kambo, pattern work stands alone as a powerful process, offering lifestyle practices, tools, and heart-centered disciplines to support transformation.

Client Testimonials

I was not expecting the depth of the healing process that would unfold. Innana dedicated significant time to understanding my historical patterns in order to recommend a customized series of sessions addressing chakras, meridians, and pain sights.

“Innana was an amazing guide. She was conscientious with her attention to detail and meticulous in the execution of the Kambo journey. As a medicine woman myself, I hold very high standards. She was able to meet me with such exquisite love, care, and service. I felt I was held beautifully in the midst of my process. I highly recommend Inna.”
