FAQ

Ibogaine is a naturally-occurring psychedelic substance that can help interrupt substance use and other behaviors in persons suffering from addiction. This includes substance use disorders (chemical addiction) as well as behavioral addiction gambling, sex, pornography, shopping, social media, etc. Recent research supports the fact that ibogaine can also help treat conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), traumatic brain injury (TBI). 

In simple terms, ibogaine is an extremely fast-acting, plant-based, naturally-occurring substance that alleviates withdrawal symptoms and interrupts the process of active addiction.

Ibogaine works differently from other treatments, as it resets receptors in the brain and normalizes brain function. Ibogaine’s metabolite noribogaine decreases or eliminates cravings and symptoms, as well as removing the overwhelming compulsion to use drugs of abuse for approximately 2-4 months following treatment.

 

Ibogaine works by:

  1. Inducing a unique psychedelic experience
  2. Minimizing or eliminating withdrawal symptoms
  3. Promoting neuroplasticity

 

In practical terms, ibogaine helps “reset” the key functional areas of the brain, leading to an immediate cessation in the craving for an addictive substance or the psychological pain caused by traumatic brain injury, or other mental health challenges.  Under the framework of an appropriate treatment plan, it can help bring patients back to their pre-addiction or pre-injury modality.  Ibogaine engages neuroplasticity and enables brain remodeling to occur.

We know there are many ibogaine providers out there.  Our advice: Don’t fall for a pretty website or a cheaper price.  As opposed to Transcend, most providers are making treatment decisions with incomplete information.

Also, don’t be afraid to ask questions or ask to speak to the doctor who will be treating you with ibogaine. It is imperative that you are confident in knowing your care program is being administered by a team of well-trained, highly capable medical professionals.  At Transcend, we will always be prepared to answer your questions and provide you with the information you need. 

Although our expert therapists will guide you in the days before (preparation) and after your treatment (integration), you can begin to prepare by establishing clear goals and intentions, reading about ibogaine, watching documentaries, and formulating questions (about ibogaine and about yourself) that you would like answered. 

Aftercare is an essential component of ibogaine treatment.  Remember, ibogaine is a process, not an event or a switch that we flip.  During your stay at Transcend, we will help you establish an individualized aftercare plan.
