7-Night Kambo Retreat in Valle de Bravo, Mexico

The traditional three-session Kambo protocol, held over one unhurried week at La Fuente, our adobe homestead above Valle de Bravo. Luke trained as a practitioner with the International Association of Kambo Practitioners (IAKP) in 2016 and has spent twenty years in the healing arts. Every session is one-on-one.

Kambo is taken in the morning on an empty stomach. Before each session you have a hyperbaric oxygen session, and afterward fruit, tea and rest. The work itself is physical, fast and over in about twenty minutes; within an hour most people feel like themselves again, often clearer and lighter.

The days in between are for recovering well: the hand-built steam dome, garden meals, the hammock and the land. Alexa, who holds an MA in Holistic Counseling, meets with you once during the week to help you make sense of what came up.

Kambo isn’t right for everyone. It has real contraindications, including pregnancy, serious heart conditions, recent stroke, severe mental illness and current chemotherapy, so a conversation and a health intake come before any booking is confirmed. Kambo is not psychedelic, and it is not a medical treatment.

The medicine is sourced ethically from the Matsés people of Brazil, and the frogs are never harmed.

Valle de Bravo is about two and a half hours by road from Mexico City. We can arrange a private car from the airport or your hotel.
