WHAT IS IBOGAINE?

Ibogaine is a naturally occurring compound derived from the root bark of the African iboga tree (Tabernanthe iboga), traditionally used in ritualistic contexts by indigenous peoples for its psychoactive properties. As a powerful psychedelic, Ibogaine is primarily recognized for its potential therapeutic effects in treating substance use disorders, particularly opioid addiction. Ibogaine is also a powerful remedy for PTSD and trauma-related symptoms, as well as chronic pain and various neurological conditions. It interacts with multiple neurotransmitter systems, promoting a profound introspective experience, which can lead to insights and physical + emotional healing.

It can significantly reduce withdrawal symptoms and cravings, facilitating a smoother recovery process. This medicine has saved thousands of lives; often people who had lost all hope for recovery.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IBOGA AND IBOGAINE?

Ibogaine is used in a medical setting for treating addiction and addictive behaviors, plus PTSD and chronic pain, whereas Iboga is used in a ceremonial, shamanic setting. While Ibogaine is derived from Iboga, the experiences are quite different. When you take Ibogaine, your liver converts it to the active metabolite noribogaine, which is what is responsible for eliminating the cravings and desires to use afterwards. Noribogaine also produces an amazing antidepressant and anxiety effect. Ibogaine is one of twelve alkaloids found in Iboga, so in order to get the full saturation of noribogaine, you want to take ibogaine HCL, as Iboga does not provide enough concentration of Ibogaine to provide the clinical benefits. At Bassé clinic, we use 99.7% pure pharmaceutical grade Ibogaine HCL, that has been lab tested and verified for our center.

IS IBOGAINE PSYCHEDELIC?

Ibogaine provides a profoundly powerful psychotropic experience that many individuals find to be remarkably insightful and expansive. Participants often describe the Ibogaine journey as akin to a vivid dream or a life review, where they reflect on pivotal moments in their lives as if watching a movie unfold with their eyes closed. This experience can bring to the surface trapped emotions and memories, allowing for safe exploration and processing of these events. Although the process can be challenging, most clients discover that the healing benefits far outweigh the effort, and many actually love the adventure!
