Actual Therapy for Addiction

Oka Center specializes in addiction therapy. Heroin, pharmaceutical opioids, methamphetamine, cocaine, crack, and alcohol are serious addictions for millions of people in the US. There is a profound lack of viable treatments for those suffering from addiction. Many families have repeatedly spent many thousands of dollars on rehabilitation facilities where the addict suffers withdrawal from their drug of choice, and predictably ends up returning to drugs immediately after the program ends.

Being in a traditional rehab is a waiting game for the addict. What can be done about terrible withdrawals and cravings? There is an answer. With the presence of protocols and qualified people to administer ibogaine, there is now a tool to use to 1) reduce or eliminate withdrawal symptoms from opiates, 2) relieve the addict from cravings, and 3) provide the addict with a cognitive understanding of the root causes of their addiction.

Ibogaine Therapy

As of today, many thousands of people have participated in ibogaine therapy in an effort to free themselves from unwanted addictions. Ibogaine treatments provide a unique opportunity to make significant changes in the way the addicts deal with stress, temptations, cravings and the psycho-social situations they find themselves in. By the end of a successful ibogaine treatment, most addicts have experienced a “reset” of the receptor sites in their brains, letting them experience a truly non-addicted state.

In addition, many participants achieve, through the ibogaine therapy and its accompanying “visions,” a subjective and rational understanding of the contributing factors to their addiction. Ibogaine can reveal underlying psychological themes that can then be approached without fear.

Long Term Success

But ibogaine is no silver bullet against addiction. It is a harm reduction tool (read more here). Opiate addiction, alcohol dependency and other drug problems are not easy to overcome, even with ibogaine therapy. At Oka Center, we provide the best service possible, in as little time as possible, to give the addict a supported and safe new beginning. After ibogaine therapy, the participant should be permitted space in which to continue processing the experience for as long as possible. Many heavy users will benefit from a traditional rehab program immediately after ibogaine therapy. Being in a program of some kind after ibogaine therapy is strongly recommended. For some addicts, great benefits come from a follow-up ibogaine session within a couple of months of the initial process.

Non-Addict Uses for Ibogaine

Iboga and ibogaine have been used successfully to address many other situations, conditions and psychological issues. Oka Center has a sister group at IbogaLife, where they address those who desire initiation, or who are dealing with trauma, depression or other emotional challenges.
