About Us
There is an innate intelligence which resides in all of us. Your body is an organic, self-healing, self-regulating system. Your job is to remove the “block” or the accumulation of “blocks” which inhibit your body’s natural healing response. There is no mystery as to why your body loses vitality or creates symptoms. It is constantly interacting with its environment, responding to the thoughts we think and the feelings engendered by those thoughts, including all the food and drink we ingest as well.
When you experience symptoms, they are indicative of something in your inner and/or outer environment that is out of balance. It is a matter of relearning the language in which your body communicates its needs to you and connecting to the power you have to heal yourself. Since the path is not always clear, embracing your power might mean asking for support along the way.
We understand that at times the discomfort we are experiencing can be overwhelming. Despite trying different ways to understand what is happening to our bodies, we might reach a point where we are overwhelmed and do not know what other options to pursue, nor which way to turn. Because we believe every problem comes with a solution, we have developed a very unique approach which should be considered to be the evolution of medicine.
Our method was inspired by our founder’s personal experience. He was fortunate enough upon one instance to discover the powerful healing properties of Iboga as a sacred plant medicine, assisted by a medical intuitive reading. This is on par with Edgar Cayce’s readings from the past. From this experience, he was inspired to create this Iboga medicinal plant-based healing project.
We believe that once one sets clear intentions and establishes trust in the process, is willing to put energy towards the manifestation of those intentions, they will align with the appropriate truth and healing necessary; they will be assisted by the best-suited healing practitioners. When you come to us, we will be prepared and ready to welcome you to our Costa Rican paradise. In some instances, we can go directly to you no matter where you are in the world. We consider every person as whole and deserving, that is why we offer this very individualized and unique method, nobody should suffer.
Founder
Welcome! My name is Darin McBratney, the founder of Iboga Therapy.
I am filled with gratitude for how my life was immediately transformed by an illness which I had contracted in 2005. My initial path led me towards western medicine, however I found its oppressive methods to be detrimental to my health and financially draining. I discovered that proper nutrition, optimal environmental surroundings, ancient integrated healing methods, paired with the profound effects of Iboga, were the answer to my ultimate and entire healing process. This is what Iboga Therapy will offer to you.
I am not a doctor nor a shaman. I am simply a single person that has persevered and overcome a potentially life ending scenario via new methods. This life-changing healing method allowed me to not only survive but to thrive. This original, ultimately advantageous method is non-invasive, safe, extremely simple.
We incorporate ancient healing methods. Unlike the Bwiti, of whom may rely solely on Iboga at times, we ultimately address the entire body, mind, and spirit. This is a more individualized standard which will accomplish each person’s needs. In some cases we will utilize many different assistance including acupuncture, body work, breath work, aromatherapy, physical exercise and movement, reiki, intravenous vitamin therapy, yoga, meditation, grounding, sound healing, colonics, kinesiology, dietary changes, lifestyle changes, and medical healing adherence.
When we are first born we are most in tune with the universe. However, there are many aspects of our modern society which immediately steer us off our spiritual course. We are truly organic beings who have lost our understanding and connection of not only how to use our own body’s infinite potential but also our natural resources and environments. Iboga and our methods will provide you with the stepping stone to return to your most universally pristine self and a thriving existence.
A Brief History
I was a forty year old real estate entrepreneur and surfer who was consistently in great health. One evening after surfing, I started to feel strange. I experienced brain fog and light sensitivity, which later evolved into fatigue, agonizing pain and other related symptoms. For over two years of battling this severe illness, I was led to five countries, had consulted with over thirty doctors and spent a fortune on what I now consider to be my therapeutic education.
What was extremely worrisome was that twenty seven other people from my immediate area had experienced the same symptoms and in the most extreme instances, five had succumbed to the illness. After having endured the most agonizing gauntlet of western medicine, I was either misdiagnosed or given no diagnosis whatsoever. After ending up in emergency rooms, I was coming to the conclusion that I would also meet the same fate. Whatever the ambiguous condition I had was certainly trying to end my life.
On one purely heavenly day I was referred to a holistic doctor who had assisted a dear friend of mine with a terminal illness. I reluctantly made a last long trip with an absurdly oversized list of medical records. I walked into the office and was greeted by this lovely being. I told them my story within about 10 minutes and gave them my several years worth and excessively overpaid medical files. They had just set them down and said, “We don’t need those.” They pulled out a multitude of cases filled with empty vials labeled with seemingly every disease known to man. Simply within five minutes I was diagnosed with Ciguetera; commonly known as red tide nerve toxins. We discovered every cell of my body was compromised. She implemented targeted energy work which instantaneously made me feel exceedingly better. I am positive that after finally having an actually correct diagnosis, it was a huge progression towards my healing which ended up being confirmed by a coveted university shortly thereafter.
My confirmed diagnosis upon even further testing had a profound impact on my path to healing; I finally had hope again considering I had understood that there was no possible “cure” for this ailment. My belief, now and forever, is that there is a natural healing process for any possible ailment at any stage. I came up with a medically intuitive protocol to find my healing. I started writing protocols for healers, supplements, exercise, nutrition, and environment, along with other modalities of healing. With the addition of medically intuitive expertise. We constructed an extraordinary process and gave birth to a revolutionary way to diagnose and restore anyone to their optimal health.
My seemingly endless research for natural and pure health over the years has led me to ancient Vedic texts, plant medicines, indigenous medicines, Edgar Cayce teachings, eastern medicine, nutrition, and all forms of natural and holistic healing. We have created an unprecedented gathering of the best healers in the world to form Iboga Therapy. We have the goal of assisting anyone and everyone towards the guidance and goal of optimal health. If you’re ready to commit and realign yourself to universal truth, let’s venture together to achieve your goals and aspirations. Anything is possible if the intention is there. Love is the most powerful force in the world; it holds the power to heal and transform anything and anyone it touches. Iboga Therapy is pure love.
