Tabernanthe Iboga is a plant that grows in the forests of West Africa where it has a long history of traditional ceremonial use in healing and rites of passage, through ingestion of its root bark.

In modern society, a significant and growing amount of research and reports from those who have used it to assist in detoxification has led to its development as a highly promising tool for therapy and recovery from substance dependence. Ibogaine, one of the twelve alkaloids found in the root bark, promptly alleviates difficult and painful withdrawal  from substances such as heroin, methadone and other opiates and reduces the cravings of opiates, stimulants, alcohol, benzodiazepines and nicotine during several weeks to months and helps to elevate mood after the treatment. Furthermore, it helps restore the dopamine neurons damaged by excessive substance abuse.

The profound oneiric (dream-like) experience that Ibogaine provokes often providing deep personal insight makes this ethnobotanical a highly promising tool in psychotherapy.
