About Tabula Rasa Retreat
Tabula Rasa Retreat has rapidly positioned itself as a premier European ibogaine clinic. Located in the Alentejan region of Portugal, its clientele is mainly from the United Kingdom, Northern Europe, UAE and the USA. All treatments undergo medical vetting and are medically monitored and supervised by ACLS trained medical staff.
While not a magic cure, Ibogaine can interrupt addictions and offer a pain-free withdrawal from opiates. To support ibogaine treatments, expect holistic therapies such as breathwork, bodywork, massage, meditation, kundalini yoga, reiki, gong baths, drumming circles, equine assisted therapy, personal training and nutrition advice. This is further supported by 1:1 counselling and group therapy by their in-house counsellors. In addition, online aftercare meetings are offered for life.

∙ Trauma and Addiction Focus- Nearly all their clients suffer from some degree of underlying trauma or PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). Experience and evidence-based approaches have led them to understand the importance of addressing both these co-occurring disorders in parallel. Their team at Tabula Rasa Retreat is not only well versed in Ibogaine treatments and therapy. They are also well trained to be able to help you through these issues and processes.

By enhancing their understanding, they will be better equipped to support their loved ones when they return home.
