Why Choose Seven Days Instead of Five?
No two recovery stories are the same. Some people simply need more time — maybe to get stable before treatment starts, or to recover more gently afterwards. This program is usually the right choice if you:
- Have a long or heavy history with substance use
- Are juggling multiple substances
- Are coming out of especially tough or high-stress withdrawal situations
- Want more time to process, integrate, and really absorb the experience
- Prefer a thorough, unrushed approach to recovery
That extra time isn’t about making things tougher. It’s about giving your mind and body the breathing room they truly need.
What Makes This Program “Advanced”?
The “advanced” part isn’t about a stronger dose or a tougher experience. It’s about depth: stronger medical support, more time, and more chances to integrate what happens. Compared to our shorter programs, this one gives you:
- More time to stabilize before starting — ideal if withdrawals are complicated
- Longer and more frequent medical monitoring
- Extra recovery days, so you don’t have to rush back on your feet
- More support for integration — time for reflection, planning, and getting clear on what comes next
- An easier, smoother transition back to the rest of your life
Think of this as recovery done right, not rushed.
What Does the Week Actually Look Like?
Day 1 – Arrival and Full Medical Check
We’ll run a full medical evaluation, checking your heart, running blood work, and breaking down your substance use background.
Day 2 – Stabilization
If withdrawal is a serious concern, we’ll focus on safety — managing early symptoms and making sure you’re ready.
Day 3 – Get Ready
More rest, hydration, and a final go-over with our team to confirm you’re medically good to go.
Day 4 – Ibogaine Treatment (Supervised)
Your main ibogaine session, under close medical watch, in a quiet, carefully controlled environment.
Day 5 – Early Recovery
A day for your body to process, supported and monitored by staff.
Day 6 – Reflection & Integration
We shift gears to process everything — journaling, sharing, and starting to plan the next steps.
Day 7 – Planning & Departure
We end the process with a personalised aftercare plan before you leave, making you feel really ready for the transition home.
Who’s a Good Fit for This Program?
This extended plan works best for folks who:
- Struggle with long-term or serious substance use
- Haven’t gotten results from shorter detoxes
- Have other health conditions alongside substance use
- Want something super thorough — careful medical support and time for emotional recovery
- Prefer to ease back into daily life, not be rushed
Not sure if you need five or seven days? We’ll talk it through with you during your first consult and figure out what fits.
Ibogaine’s Role in Your Recovery
At the heart of your seven days is a medically supervised ibogaine session. We choose ibogaine because it’s proven to help with withdrawal and cravings. Most people say they notice:
- A dramatic drop in withdrawal symptoms (compared to standard detox)
- Fewer cravings after treatment
- Real mental clarity and insights
- The feeling of a mental and physical “reset”
But ibogaine is powerful — especially for your heart. So we run full medical screens and keep you closely monitored every step of the way.
Safety Comes First, Always
We take safety seriously — it’s non-negotiable. Here’s what you can expect from us:
- Full heart check (ECG) before you start
- Comprehensive blood tests to make sure your organs are in good shape
- Continuous monitoring during your whole stay — not just for treatment day
- Medical professionals on site at all times
- Straight talk about any risks or concerns tailored to you
We don’t cut corners, no matter how simple or complex your case.

What Happens After Your Seven Days?
Detox is a fresh start, not the final step. Before you leave, we help create a plan that covers:
- How to manage any lingering withdrawal feelings
- Where to find ongoing counselling or therapy
- Tips for building healthier routines and rebuilding relationships
- How to keep in touch with us if you need more support
Having this extra planning time gives you a thoughtful, solid path forward — not just a quick send-off.
Finding the Program That Fits
Everyone’s recovery is different. Some people bounce back with a few days of structured reset, others need a longer window and more care. Neither way is “better.” The right choice is the one that fits who you are and what you actually need.
We’re here for an honest conversation, to help you choose based on your reality — not just what sounds best.
