What to Expect

The retreat operates in a boutique setting with a focus on small group or private formats. Medical oversight is described as present throughout the experience, with paramedics on call. The program addresses both dependency conditions and broader personal development goals.

Important Safety Note: This facility does not list cardiac screening as part of its intake process. Ibogaine carries documented cardiac risks, including QT interval prolongation, and independent cardiac screening — including an ECG — is strongly recommended before any ibogaine treatment regardless of what a facility requires. Discuss this with your own physician before proceeding.

Before You Commit — Research Checklist

  1. Request full credentials of all medical staff and verify HPCSA registration independently.
  2. Ask specifically about cardiac screening and what medical protocols exist for emergencies.
  3. Clarify exactly what substances are administered, dosing protocols, and session duration.
  4. Confirm what aftercare or integration support is included or recommended post-retreat.
  5. Review the facility's intake screening process for contraindicated medications and conditions.
