Reset the reward system. Reclaim your life.

Alcohol, cocaine, crack, and methamphetamine all hijack the same dopamine reward pathways. Ibogaine resets those pathways at the neurological level and eliminates the craving cycle for alcohol and stimulants without replacement therapy.

Your Detox Path

How we prepare you: depends on where you’re coming from

Path 1

Alcohol

Alcohol
10day detox

Alcohol withdrawal carries medical risk and requires careful monitoring. A 10-day natural cleanse stabilises the system and eliminates residual toxins before ibogaine.

Path 2

Stimulants

CocaineCrackMethamphetamine
10–14day detox

Cocaine and methamphetamine strain the same heart rhythm that ibogaine acts on. Ten to fourteen days fully off lets the heart settle, confirmed by an EKG, before ibogaine treatment. The reward system's longer recovery happens during the program.

Included in every path

Natural Cleansing & Detox

The same all-natural Ayurvedic preparation protocol is used for every participant. Duration varies by substance and condition.

Sweat Cleansing

Toxin elimination through guided sweat sessions. This clears accumulated residue through the body's most natural purification channel.

Hydrocolonics and Enemas

Deep colon and gut cleansing that removes built-up toxins from the digestive system, restoring the gut-brain connection.

Ayurvedic Nutrition

Fresh cold-pressed juicing, whole-food Ayurvedic meals, and targeted herbal supplementation to nourish and rebuild at the cellular level.

Exercise

Daily movement is part of the protocol, not a break from it. Guided training, hiking, and swimming get the body circulating and clearing, burn off the fat where lingering toxins are stored, and build the strength and resilience you carry into treatment.

The Challenge

Why alcohol and stimulant addiction is more than willpower

Alcohol and stimulants like cocaine and methamphetamine cause profound changes in the brain's dopamine system, the circuit responsible for motivation, reward, and pleasure. After enough years of drinking or stimulant use, the brain loses its ability to produce natural dopamine, leaving the person feeling flat, anxious, and unable to experience joy without the substance.

These changes are not a moral failing. We believe they are neurological damage, a condition we call Chemical Brain Injury (CBI). The brain has been structurally altered, and willpower alone cannot reverse those structural changes.

Ibogaine directly addresses the dopamine system, stimulating neurogenesis and resetting receptor sensitivity to restore the brain's natural capacity for pleasure and motivation.

What We Address

What Ibogaine specifically targets

  • Dopamine receptor desensitization and normalization
  • Interruption of reward-seeking craving loops
  • BDNF and GDNF stimulation to repair dopaminergic pathways
  • Reduction of alcohol withdrawal risk through medical monitoring
  • Emotional processing of the compulsion drivers
  • Integration support during the post-treatment neuroplasticity window
“Most people arrive having already tried everything the system offered them. That is not a character flaw. It is a gap in the system.”

How Ibogaine heals at every level

Ibogaine doesn't just suppress symptoms. It works across four dimensions of healing simultaneously, creating lasting change from the root up.

Dopamine Reset

Ibogaine modulates serotonin and dopamine transporters, restoring receptor sensitivity and allowing the brain to produce and respond to natural pleasure signals again.

Craving Elimination

The compulsive pull toward alcohol or cocaine diminishes dramatically after treatment, often described as a quiet the mind hasn't known in years.

Mental Clarity

With the craving loop interrupted, participants often experience profound mental clarity and emotional availability, a new baseline that makes sustainable recovery possible.

Root Cause Work

The ibogaine experience frequently surfaces the emotional and relational patterns underlying addictive behavior (boredom, anxiety, trauma, disconnection) and offers new perspective on them.
