How we keep you safe at Transcend Ibogaine Treatment Center

State-of-the-art EKG monitoring throughout your entire treatment. Because we explicitly acknowledge ibogaine's cardiovascular risks, we watch your heart every second.

Comprehensive Screening

Extensive pre-arrival assessment and onsite full cardiac, hepatic, and psychiatric evaluation before acceptance. Treatment may be ruled out for active conditions of the heart, lungs, or liver.

Individualized Care

Staff adhere strictly to established protocols, safety guidelines, and evidence-based practices to ensure optimal outcomes.

Emergency-Ready Facility

Full crash cart, defibrillator, IV medications, and critical care capability on-site. Our facilities are staffed to promptly identify and manage any potential complications.

⚠️ Important: Ibogaine is not an FDA-approved medication. Treatment may be ruled out for certain health conditions. Your safety is non-negotiable.

Ibogaine resets neural pathways, alleviates withdrawal, and promotes rapid recovery

Each condition requires its own protocol. Our medical team tailors the ibogaine treatment to your specific needs.

This experience truly changed my life. I came here hoping to work on myself, but I left having healed parts of my childhood that I had carried for years without even realizing how deeply they were affecting me. For the first time, I was able to understand and process things I had never been able to put into words. The entire team is exceptional. From the doctors and nurses to the wellness coaches, chefs, housekeeping staff, and drivers, every single person genuinely cares and creates a safe, supportive environment. I also met some incredible people during my stay who I know will be lifelong friends. If you’re considering this journey and are ready to do the work, I can’t recommend this place enough. I’ll always be grateful for what they helped me achieve.

Truly an incredible experience that I wouldn't trade for anything. The staff-to-patient ratio was about 2:1 or at times 3:1 while I was there. Received the necessary care and attention to feel 100% safe and comfortable with the surroundings. Very friendly and accommodating staff all around (doctors, nurses, kitchen, housekeeping, massages, landscape care, etc. Service is top notch. Rooms are very comfortable and private. The 11 days I was there went by extremely fast. To anyone reading this that is struggling, Transcend and Ibogaine treatment are far superior to anything available in the states. I believe it saved my life. I've been to rehab stateside; I've been attending AA for years to no avail........I'd recommend Transcend all day over the rehab in the states. It's a cutting-edge approach towards healing. I've never felt better in my life. Added bonus - I haven't taken my prescriptions since returning home and have not felt the need to. Thank you Transcend!! I may see if it's feasible to go back for a 1-year renewal treatment. If that's an option, I'm all in.

One Ibogaine Treatment Center for Every U.S. State

Ibogaine is a Schedule I substance under federal law, which means the question isn't different in California than it is in Texas, New York, or anywhere else. Legal, medically supervised ibogaine treatment simply isn't available inside the United States, no matter which state you call home.

That's why patients travel to Transcend Clinic in Cancun, Mexico. Most major U.S. airports have a direct or one stop flight to Cancun in half a day or less. We treat patients from every corner of the country under the same physician led protocol, the same cardiac monitoring, and the same medical standard, regardless of where they started their journey.

What patients ask us most

We know you have questions. Here are honest answers.

What is ibogaine?
Ibogaine is a psychoactive substance derived from an African plant called Tabernanthe iboga. In the past, the local tribespeople used its roots for communicating with the spirits. Today, the plant has reached North America, where it is used for its healing properties. So, what is ibogaine treatment? Many ibogaine clinics have started using the substance with high efficiency for addiction recovery and different mental conditions. Ibogaine reduces cravings and helps address the underlying issues that led to drug abuse.
