McGregor Says Ibogaine Treatment in Tijuana 'Saved' Him, Cites Visions of Death and the Holy Trinity

The revelations come during training for a UFC return under suspension with civil cases pending.

Overview

McGregor announced on X that he underwent ibogaine therapy at AMBIO in Tijuana, saying he worked with doctors he described as Stanford-affiliated and pointing followers to a Netflix documentary about the clinic.
He said the session lasted about 36 hours, that he was shown his own death, and that he experienced a religious vision he credits with healing him and saving his family.
Ibogaine is a powerful hallucinogen investigated for trauma and addiction and is not approved for medical use in the United States, according to the coverage.
He has posted new training footage, returned to SBG Ireland with coach John Kavanagh, and unveiled personalized Venum shorts, though UFC chief Dana White has denied claims he is already set for a White House card.
His comeback push faces constraints from an anti-doping suspension running to March 20, 2026, and from legal headwinds that include a pending Florida civil suit and a prior civil finding against him in an Irish rape case.
