Eating Disorder Treatment: How Ibogaine Can Help

Eating disorders such as anorexia, bulimia, and binge-eating disorder are serious mental health conditions that affect both the body and mind. While traditional treatment methods — including therapy, medication, and nutrition plans — can help, recovery is often difficult and long-term success rates are still low.

We believe that healing must go deeper than surface-level symptoms. That's why we offer ibogaine treatment — a natural and holistic therapy that helps address the emotional pain and trauma at the root of eating disorders.

Understanding Eating Disorders

Eating disorders are not just about food or body image. They often stem from emotional wounds, past trauma, or deep psychological pain. People with eating disorders may use food control, restriction, or bingeing as a way to cope with anxiety, stress, low self-worth, or unresolved trauma.

Over time, these behaviors can turn into addictions — harmful cycles that feel impossible to break.

How Ibogaine Works

Ibogaine is a natural plant medicine from the African iboga root. It's been used for generations in traditional ceremonies and is now being explored for its ability to treat addiction, trauma, and mental health conditions.

Ibogaine works by resetting the brain's reward system and balancing neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin. It also helps people enter a deeply reflective state where they can explore the root causes of their struggles.

During an ibogaine treatment session, many people gain insight into the emotional patterns and past experiences that have shaped their behavior. This can be a powerful starting point for lasting change.

Ibogaine and Eating Disorders

We treat eating disorders with the same care and attention we give to other forms of behavioral addiction. Eating disorders often involve compulsive behavior — similar to substance addiction — and ibogaine helps break that cycle.

Here's how ibogaine treatment may help those struggling with eating disorders:

Reduces obsessive thoughts around food and body image
Offers emotional clarity and self-understanding
Helps release past trauma stored in the subconscious
Improves mood and emotional regulation
Restores a sense of self-worth and inner peace

A Safe and Supportive Environment

Because ibogaine is a strong, psychoactive medicine, it must be used in a controlled and medically supervised setting. We provide full medical screening before treatment and continuous heart monitoring during the experience.

Our team includes trained medical professionals, therapists, and holistic healers who support you before, during, and after your ibogaine journey.

Healing Is More Than One Session

While ibogaine can offer deep breakthroughs, real healing continues after the treatment. That's why we include aftercare support, therapy, and wellness practices like yoga, breathwork, and nutrition guidance.

We believe that recovery from eating disorders requires a full-body approach — physical, emotional, and spiritual healing combined.
