Integrative psychedelic protocols

“Ibogaine is not a cure — it is a reset. What the patient does with that reset, the integration work, the lifestyle changes, the psychological support, determines the outcome. My role is to ensure the reset happens safely, effectively, and with the precision that medicine demands.”

— Dr. Juan José Arellano, M.D., Clinical Director, MindScape Retreat

Clinical Expertise

Conditions Dr. Juan José Arellano Treats

Every treatment protocol is individualized — designed around your physiology, substance history, and therapeutic goals.

Opioid & Fentanyl Addiction

Ibogaine resets opioid receptors at the neurological level — eliminating withdrawal and dramatically reducing cravings in a single medically supervised session.

PTSD, C-PTSD & TBI

Deep neuroplastic processing of trauma. Veterans and survivors consistently report significant reduction in PTSD symptoms following ibogaine treatment.

Treatment-Resistant Depression

Ibogaine upregulates GDNF and promotes neuroplasticity — producing rapid antidepressant effects where conventional medications have failed.

Parkinson's Disease

Pioneering GDNF-mediated dopaminergic neuron repair for Parkinson's. Published case studies document significant motor function improvement.

SSRI Discontinuation

Supervised 10–14 day protocol for safely discontinuing antidepressants by resetting the serotonin system under continuous physician oversight.

Alcohol & Stimulant Dependency

Interruption of behavioral addiction patterns and craving reduction for alcohol, cocaine, methamphetamine, and kratom dependencies.
