Our Offerings

Our team provides a container of warm, dedicated support, guiding you from your initial curiosity through your effective integration and beyond. We offer this care through in-person retreats and programs worldwide, as well as virtual support.

Psychospiritual Retreats

Held within the Missoko Bwiti tradition, our Traditional Iboga Retreats offer a deeply immersive healing container. Facilitated by heart-led initiates trained by Bwiti elders, each retreat honors the integrity of this ancestral lineage while creating a safe, supportive environment for your healing journey.

Detox Programs

Our Ibogaine/Iboga  Detox Programs unite the depth of the Missoko Bwiti tradition with licensed medical oversight — because healing shouldn't require a compromise. Full detox, traditional ceremonies, and professional counseling are fully supported by a licensed medical team, ensuring your safety at every step.

Neurospiritual Programs

For those navigating chronic and neurodegenerative conditions — including Parkinson's, MS, autoimmune disorders, and traumatic brain injury — our medically monitored Bwiti Iboga programs support quality of life, emotional resilience, and spiritual well-being. Traditional Bwiti methods offer powerful tools for relating to yourself anew.

Private Retreats

Our Private Retreats deliver the same comprehensive Bwiti Iboga experience as our group programs, tailored entirely to your individual needs. Whether hosted at your location or ours, every practical detail is handled — meals, environment, logistics — so you can fully surrender to your healing without distraction.

Aftercare Program

Our Aftercare Program provides structured support to help you ground and embody the insights from your Iboga ceremony, retreat, or Ibogaine treatment. Rooted in the Bwiti spiritual tradition and enriched by years of collective professional experience, it draws on proven modalities to support lasting, meaningful change in your life.

Spiritual Care

Our Spiritual Care section offers compassionate, expert guidance for individuals and professionals working with Iboga and Ibogaine. Rooted in the sacred Bwiti tradition — the authentic language of Iboga — our experienced team provides tailored support for seekers, facilitators, and providers at every stage, from preparation through integration.
About Iboga

What is Iboga?

Iboga, the “Godfather of all plant medicines,” is a sacrament used by the Bwiti for profound physical and spiritual healing, and spiritual discovery.

The most recognized alkaloid within the root of the Iboga plant (Tabernanthe iboga) is ibogaine. Ibogaine gained notoriety for its remarkable anti-addictive properties, especially for opiate addiction, and is now used globally and is very well-known.

Beyond ibogaine, Iboga contains numerous other alkaloids, some with even more beneficial effects. These alkaloids work harmoniously to facilitate the potent spiritual, mental, and physical healing that the Bwiti have long revered. Most important though, is the spirit of Iboga, which has an ancient wisdom that roots down deep into the earth – the foundation of nature itself.
