ROOT HEALING iboga Retreat
CHANG MAI THAILAND
Come home to yourself: At Root Healing Thailand
Root Healing offers traditional Bwiti Iboga ceremonies and Bwiti-informed rehabilitation services at our center in Chiang Mai (Thailand). Set in the foothills of the Himalayas and surrounded by forests, waterfalls and temples with mountainside views, Chiang Mai is one of Thailand’s most enchanting and spiritually-charged cities.
Root Healing (Thailand) is easily accessible from Asia, the Middle East, Oceania and beyond, via Chiang Mai airport. We will pick you up when you land and transport you to our center, with its peaceful garden overlooking the mountains.
Chiang Mai is where Root Healing’s founder, Ryan, encountered Iboga for the first time. Setting up our Thailand center has been his dream since Root HeaIing’s inception. At Root Healing (Thailand) we are excited to offer expanded detox facilities, as well as more options to support integration and aftercare following your experience with Iboga.
Our Iboga Retreat
at Root Healing Centers
Root Healing Iboga Retreats are 8-day long retreats that are rooted in the Bwiti tradition. If you’re new to Iboga’s rich history, Bwiti is a spiritual tradition that has worked with Iboga as their sacrament for thousands of years, starting in southern Gabon. There are several branches of Bwiti and the one we practice is called Missoko.
"The Godfather Of All Plant Medicines"
Iboga, called the “Godfather of all plant medicines,” is used by the Bwiti for physical healing, spiritual healing, and spiritual discovery.
The most well-known active alkaloid found within the root of the Iboga plant (an African shrub with the species name Tabernanthe iboga) is called ibogaine. Ibogaine became famous after its anti-addictive qualities, particularly for opiate addiction, were discovered. It is now widely used throughout the world despite its legality issues.
In actuality, Iboga contains over many more alkaloids, some of which have been proven to have even stronger anti-addictive properties than Ibogaine. These special alkaloids work synergistically to promote the potent spiritual, mental and physical healing for which it is used by the Bwiti.
All of our retreats are led by our highly trained and empowered Iboga Providers. Each retreat is steeped in the Missoko Bwiti tradition, ensuring a holistic and potent experience for our guests.
In addition to our Bwiti team, our medical, science, and hospitality experts accompany all retreats to help offer a safe and comfortable environment.
All retreats include 2 Iboga ceremonies, integration day trips, massage, medical screening, orientation, spiritual showers, counseling, healthy food, accommodations, airport transfer, fireside teachings, and integration calls.
