Dragon’s blood is a natural powerhouse with antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, analgesic, and astringent properties. It aids in:
- Stopping bleeding and promoting wound healing
- Reducing inflammation and soothing the skin
- Preventing infections

How Is Dragon’s Blood Resin Collected?

Can Dragon’s Blood Be Used Like Essential Oils?

Is Dragon’s Blood Safe for Dogs?

Is Dragon’s Blood Beneficial After a Kambô Ceremony?
Absolutely. Dragon’s blood is commonly applied to the skin after a Kambô session to aid in the healing of the small openings (or “gates”) created during the process. It protects, accelerates wound closure, and minimizes scarring.
Is Dragon’s Blood Safe to Use?
When used topically and in small amounts, dragon’s blood is generally safe. However, consuming large quantities may lead to nausea, stomach cramps, and diarrhea. Always consult a healthcare professional before ingesting it.
How Do You Apply Dragon’s Blood to a Cut?
Simply place a drop or two on the wound and rub it in. Within seconds, it will foam and lighten in color, forming a natural protective barrier—like a liquid bandage.
Kids love the foaming effect, making it a fun way to treat minor cuts and scrapes!

The Katukina choose Canela De Velho when they wish to "work on the emotional body and when removing a persons repeated and/or harmful thoughts".
This blend contains Canela de Velho, which is a relative of cinnamon, giving it a sweet flavor, bringing heat to the body and solar plexus ( great for digestion). Additionally, this medicine works with the central energy channel of the body, specifically the cerebral. It calls upon your ancestry and opens up an ability to access memories.

This is one of my new favorite blends. While it is one of the strongest blends I've had, it's energetics are warm and loving. It's been a loving ally in my meditations and has helped me reconnect to my heart.

I loved this blend! Probably one of my top 3 for sure. Super smooth and grounding. Manifestations were in works with this medicine :)
Sending love and blessings, @yoga_with_koa

I love this blend, it is great for doing a little activating ceremony before taking on a project!
