Luxury Oceanfront Clinic Claims Painless Detox

MIAMI, FLORIDA, USA, March 22, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- As the opioid drug epidemic continues to ravage through communities and tear into families across America, one small oceanfront clinic in the Bahamas is working to treat addiction with a substance derived from an African plant.

Perched upon two manicured acres overlooking a private white-sand beach and vast turquoise ocean, The Avante Institute is an Ibogaine treatment clinic located on the New Providence island of Nassau. Looking more like a luxury estate than a detox clinic, those who travel here in search of ending their addictions to drugs and alcohol are housed in upscale resort like accommodations while undergoing the exotic plant based treatment.

Ibogaine is a natural alkaloid extracted from the Tabernanthe Iboga plant of West Africa. Its said to have been used for centuries by native African tribes for medicinal healing and religious ceremonies. The sugary white substance was discovered in the western world by an addict named Howard Lotsof who found it eliminated his withdrawals and cravings from heroin. Lotsof spent the remaining years of his life advocating the medicinal benefits of Ibogaine in treating addiction, but was never able to raise the millions of dollars necessary to conduct the required FDA approved clinical trials.

Since then, a professor at the University of Miami has become one of the world’s foremost experts on Ibogaine. Dr. Deborah Mas been working on Ibogaine research for over two decades and is the only scientist who has ever received FDA approval to study Ibogaine treatment in the United States. She has performed groundbreaking research on Ibogaine treatment in ending drug addiction and continues to advocate for Ibogaine to be made available to addicts in the United States who could benefit from Ibogaine-assisted therapy. ”Ibogaine is not in and of itself a cure. It is what we are calling an addiction interrupter; a transition into sobriety. It’s ability to reset the neurochemistry in the brain provides a window of opportunity for those with chemical dependence to end their addiction.”

Those who support ibogaine treatment insist they have seen it work time and again and that there are thousands of people who have successfully used ibogaine to make that transition into sobriety. In Thomas Kingsley Brown’s study “Ibogaine in the Treatment of Substance Dependence”, he reports that 32 of 33 IV heroin users showed no signs or only mild symptoms of opiate withdrawal 72 hours after being treated and that Ibogaine physically detoxes people 99% of the time. But detoxing is just the first step in the process of recovery. A miraculous beginning, but the elusive keys to building a sober life are hidden in the small acts of day-to-day living.”

Unlike some Ibogaine providers located deep in jungles of Mexico and south America that seem to focus more on the spiritual sacrament of the plant, The Avante Institute utilizes a clinical platform in the treatment of those seeking relief from their addiction. Clients are said to undergo a series of pre-screening tests prior to admission including medical and psychological histories, cardiovascular health analysis as well as cardiac monitoring during their treatment.

Meanwhile, as new clinics continue to open throughout Mexico and Canada where regulations are far less stringent, they all proclaim that Ibogaine is the hidden gem in the fight to end addiction. “Nobody is saying that Ibogaine is the only answer. What we do know, without a shadow of doubt, is that in a single 24-hour session Ibogaine will eliminate all post-acute withdrawal symptoms and cravings from opioids and stimulants. That alone is a miraculous discovery given the current drug epidemic we are challenged with in America today.”

There is a wealth of information on the internet about Ibogaine’s use for drug and alcohol cessation. For more information on Ibogaine treatment for addiction you can also visit The Avante Institute Bahamas website @ www.avanteinstitute.com.
