I've always had huge interest in Native culture and ceremony and holistic approaches to healing. When I was sick, I underwent experimental chemotherapy treatment which left me in a coma. After pulling through, I knew that there had to be a better way towards health and happiness in life. From there, I started to study holistic medicine, take classes on different specialties and surround myself with amazing teachers and healers. Today, I am trained to work with many different modalities - some more "normal" here than others - but all of them have changed my own life and the lives of others.
I have done CranioSacral Therapy for over 12 years and with those clients, I often also use cold laser, Biomat, essential oils, foot detox, and lymph drainage to assist. I am attending the CosmicSmith Medicine School to study other indigenous and non-traditional healing modalities and how they can be catalysts in life. Medicines like Kambo, essential oils and energy work can help one move beyond plateaus, relieve anxiety and depression, and assist in releasing past trauma.
My main goal as a wild medicine woman is to help you. I want to discuss your background before working with these medicines in order to understand which healing road is best for you. We will perform a full ceremony and set intentions at the beginning of all healings so that your needs are met. There are lots of great tools that we can use to fine tune your healing but as a healer, it is important to me that you are always comfortable with the offering and that you are getting the best method to enhance your health. I offer a free Unearthing Call to discover what it is you truly need and to get to discuss what we can do together.
I look forward to getting to know you and finding what healing is right for you!
Kambo is an indigenous medicine from Peru using the secretion of a giant tree frog. The frog medicine I use is sourced from a beautiful frog sanctuary in Peru where my medicine teachers trained. In Portuguese, this medicine is called the "vaccine of the forest" due to its powerful immunity-boosting and deep cellular healing.
Traditionally, Kambo is used by the tribes to treat malaria, snake bites, fevers, increase fertility, cause abortion, reduce body aches and inflammation and to heal viral and bacterial infections. It is also used by the tribes to remove ‘panema’, which the tribes define as dark, heavy or negative energies that manifest as bad luck, illness, depression, laziness, lack of clarity or simply feeling lost. By removing panema, a person is free to move forward to find their power.
Kambo is also used by the tribes before hunting to hide the human scent so the hunter is ‘invisible’ to their prey and increase their speed and endurance. Personally, Kambo has assisted me in finding and learning to hold my boundaries, clearing and stabilizing my lymph system, giving me clarity where I have been “stuck” and bringing me into my own power and body.
In my Kambo ceremonies I use frog secretion, sage, and Dragons blood. I also blend sound healing and essential oils into my sessions to support you throughout your ceremony.
Kambo helps you to work through mental health afflictions with a different mindset because it gives you the ability to focus mental health issues into feelings and emotions in which you can control. People have found that these treatments can help one to find an inner peace and allow for more control. This work can also be used to increase mental focus and set goals within your life and career, setting you with new focus.
Based on feedback from those I know working and sitting with the medicine, people have reported that Kambo supports the body in improving the following:
-
Depression
-
Migraines
-
Blood circulation problems
-
Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease
-
Vascular insufficiency
-
Organ diseases
-
Cancer
-
Fertility problems
-
Deeply rooted toxins
-
Chronic pain
-
Addiction to opiate or prescription painkillers (Kambo reduces physical pain, thus helping people kick their addictions to other painkillers)
-
Fever and infections
-
Negative energies (traditionally known as “panema”)
Kambo can assist in helping the body when done in a ceremony where intentions are set and focus is placed. The services rendered are safe holistic methods that assist the body with imbalances that can cause or contribute to various health problems. These methods support the body in balancing its own physical, emotional, and energetic being.
In the Amazon, kambo is traditionally collected early in the morning, when the Phyllomedusa bicolor—the giant monkey frog from which the secretion is derived—are singing and can easily be found. Without harming them, a shaman scrapes secretion from the frog’s skin with a stick. The secretion is then administered to a person via small holes that are burned into the top few layers of their skin, usually on the arm. Because of its purging and cleansing properties, kambo is often used as a precursor to an ayahuasca ceremony, which is also used by many of the same tribes.
Undertaking a kambo ceremony can be an intense experience. In addition to opening your channels, it can cause a strong reaction in your nervous system, and a strong emotional reaction which is intense in the moment, but leaves you feeling relaxed after about an hour. While the experience is not for everyone, Kambo’s cleansing effects begin within minutes of administration, and it leaves most people feeling lighter in the days and weeks after treatment.
Requires a minimum of 6 hours of fasting and a medical discussion prior. The medical discussion and information about the treatment is done during the Unearthing Call (free 30 minute call) - so please schedule a call prior to this session. Thank you!
Holistic practitioners are NOT Medical Doctors (MDs). Holistic health practitioners are trained specialists who use holistic practices to create a healthy environment for the mind, body and spirit. We facilitate energy and physical clearing that helps the body empower and bring healing to itself.
Craniosacral therapy (CST) is a non-invasive, hands-on therapy that works to enhance the body's own healing capabilities. It uses a gentle touch to manipulate the joints in the skull, pelvis, and spine. The light touch affects the pressure and circulation of cerebrospinal fluid to relive pain and dysfunction within the body. CST can help physical and psychological conditions including autism, pain in back or neck, fatigue, stress, migraines, and more. It works to relive compression in the bones of the head, sacrum, and spinal column.
This is accomplished with gentle manipulation to the cerebrospinal system to remove blockages in the flow and enhance the body's ability to heal. It can help relieve emotional and physical stress, especially in restoring the cranial mobility or the head, neck and nerves. I have been a practitioner for years and have gained knowledge through different classes and workshops.
If this is your first time, please make an appointment for the Unearthing Call - a free 30 minute call in which we can discuss more about the offering.
Lymph drainage is done with the use of a lymph machine. The machine uses electricity to stimulate oxygen distribution throughout the body. It moves toxins through the body in order to be cleansed. Lymphatic systems connect throughout the body linking all internal systems. The lymphs make sure our fluids, mainly water, run smoothly through the body while increasing the heart's productivity in pumping blood and distributing oxygen. The lymphatic system can get backed-up when fluids become stagnant. A sluggish system can lead to water retention, infections, bloating, and cellulite. Lymph drainage can assist the body with its own self-drainage helping people who feel run-down, sick, or in need of a detox.

Sound healing is a practice that uses vibrations to relax mind and body. I use crystal sound bowls, rattles, shakers, chimes, and an assortment of drums. The vibrations work to center your emotional, physical and spiritual being. Heal your body through sounds and hope. The earth has certain vibrational tones within every plant, animal, and material; sound healing links your body to those vibrations creating resonance to restore a peaceful equilibrium. This creates an optimal state of health for your body.
I use sound healing in several of my offerings as an add-on but also offer it as a full service by itself. It is a powerful tool that can be used with one individual or multiple people in a healing circle. I have several chants and songs that I use to increase the experience of the rituals. The sound can influence energy and shift mental states and emotional well-being.
Several of my sessions include sound healings, but the ones that do not can be enriched by use of sound healing, if you desire. Please use the Unearthing Call - a free 30 minute call - to discuss the different sound methods and what would best work for you. Looking forward to jamming with you!
Hapé (pronounced ha-PAY), also called Rapé, is a technique from the Matses tribe in Peru. It is powdered medicinal herbs with a tobacco base called Mapacho. Other plants' alkaline ashes such as cinnamon, tonka bean, clover, banana peel, or mint can be added to the mixture. The tribe's grandmother prays over the mixture for three days in an extremely spiritual ceremony. The use of Hapé should be limited to specialized ceremonies in which we focus on healing and connections.
Hapé is administered by a Tepi pipe with which I blow the mixture up your nose. The pipe is handmade by me and blessed as well. The ceremony can be done by itself or as an add-on before or after certain other offerings. The Mapacho gives you an intense feeling, bringing a sense of confidence, calm and awareness. Receiving and giving Hapé is a sacred process in which we honor what came before and is given to us. There is a prayer that is used: "[we] call upon the forces of Nature, the blessing of the animals of the forest, and power of medicinal plants to heal us and give us strength."
This technique is helpful to remove physical and psychological blocks within you. Hapé can help you focus your mind, detox your body and clear your energetic field. The ceremony clears a space of distracting and dark energies to focus intentions leading to a calming and grounding effect on your emotions. Through the process, it can clear the sinuses of mucus and bacteria - assisting the body with colds and respiratory ailments.
Use the Unearthing Call - a free 30 minute call - to discuss if the full ceremony or just using Hapé as an add-on is right for you. Hapé is great in both instances and can be a very spiritual journey for everyone that participates.
