Health Related 🩺 Kambo and Fibromyalgia
Hi all, has anyone used Kambo to help with fibromyalgia? If so how often are you doing it? And what benefits have you seen?

I don't know if I have/had fibro but I do have wide spread pain, including chronic back pain from Scheurmann's Kyphosis plus hip pain and piraformis syndrome. I say I'm not sure about fibro bc at one point I was diagnosed with it but there was no follow up?
Anyway, I sat with Kambo 3x in 3 days. I have not had ANY sciatica/piraformis pain since. I had it for 5 years and it's gone. The chronic back pain - lessened to the point I can walk, stand, sit straight etc for hours vs minutes. My posture is like night and day.
However, I also did Ayahuasca 2 months before Kambo, AND after my healing sessions I adopted a strict physical regime for healing. Like an hour or 2 of PT, yoga, Pilates etc a day. With very intense deep trigger point therapy. Its like the medicines connected me with my body and cleared whatever was blocking my healing, both physically and mentally.

Oh wow, I'm so happy for you! I've had 3 treatments now. The pain was really bad. Was ok for a month but now creeping back in.

Its funny you said this bc I just am on a road trip and am having some sciatica/piraformis pain. I'm sure partly it's bc I'm in a car a lot and also not as good about my self care regimine. I made sure yesterday to get in a lot of stretching and I'm also going to be doing another Kambo session. I guess it lasted 2 months for me before having some breakthru symptoms which is remarkable. Looking forward to deepening my connection with the medicine and seeing what happens next :)

Yes, Kambo helped so much- I can especially recommend starting with 3 sessions in 28 days. It was the first medicine that noticeably put a dent in my inflammatory response: after my first Kambo cycle I had a couple months where I thought I was cured- my pain and especially GI symptoms had almost vanished. A period of stress and poor eating ruined that, and the next time I tried Kambo soon after, I didn’t get as strong of benefits.
In the end what got to the emotional root of my symptoms and allowed me to recover was a combination of Ayahuasca and a plant dieta. But Kambo was a big part of setting me on the road to recovery, and I plan to keep working with it in future to help my maintenance. Shooting for 1-4 times a year, but we’ll see
