Detoxification

Detoxification
Many programs consider withdrawal from the particular drug of addiction to be detoxification. The is only a partial answer and when substitute drugs are given to replace the substance of abuse this is hardly detoxification at all and is often simply trading one substance for another, as in the use of some anti-depressants, or drugs like methadone, etc. Detoxification means to remove drugs, poisons and toxins from the body as fully as possible. Research clearly indicates that these substances will store in the fatty tissues of the body for months and even years. This in part accounts for drugged feeling and cravings appearing long after use has ceased. At Narconon Arrowhead we follow up withdrawal from use with the New Life Detoxification Program. This is state of the art detoxification embracing nutrition, exercise, and sauna routines to flush the stored drugs and toxins from the body. Many of the people completing this detoxification program report a complete handling and end of drug cravings, with rises in intelligence and ability demonstrated by actual test results.

Addiction - Abuse and Addiction

Addiction - Abuse
Drug abuse occurs with any use of illegal substances and also occurs when prescription drugs are taken in excess of recommended dosages or for longer than prescribed. Addiction is the inevitable next step forward if drug abuse is not handled. Addiction is the compulsive seeking and use of drugs or alcohol despite adverse social, mental, and physical consequences. At this point the abuse of drugs goes beyond just impacting the individual and is severely impacting family, loved ones, finances and careers. When the individual moves from abuse to addiction the drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the usage.

 

Relapse Treatment and Addiction

Relapse Treatment
Relapse treatment is best affected before the relapse occurs and not after. After so many losses in this area many addiction professionals feel relapse is often inevitable and needs to be planned for. This is a defeatist mentality. There are solutions to the problems of relapse over and over in an endless cycle of pain and misery. With over 40 years of experience and a 76% success rate Narconon knows the answers to relapse prevention as opposed to relapse treatment. We are a long term facility which fully addresses the three causes of continued addiction, once these hare handled relapse and worry about it just fade away.

 

Drug Abuse Treatment Center and Addiction

Drug Abuse Treatment Center
What kind of drug abuse treatment center is Narconon Arrowhead? Well, Narconon is a long term, drug free, non-traditional drug abuse treatment center. What this means is that Narconon for one does not believe in the use of drugs in the treatment of drug or alcohol abuse. Rather we address the factors leading up to and then continuing alcohol and drug abuse. Substituting one drug for another just makes no sense! We are long term in that the program is designed for results not amount of time spent in rehab. Our average stay is generally 90 – 120 days depending on individual needs. Our students go at their own pace to insure the full abilities needed are gained. We are also non-traditional meaning the normal 12 step methodologies common to shorter programs and not used by rather an approach of gaining and using new abilities to produce a happy and drug free, productive life.

 

12 Step Program and Addiction

12 Step Program
The 12 step program has been around in various forms since the 1920’s. It basically involves 12 different steps done by the addict or alcoholic in an attempt to gain control over the addiction or alcoholism. There are thousands of local meetings throughout the world whose membership uses the 12 steps as their basic approach. Many of the short term drug rehabs also use the 12 step approach to solving addiction or alcoholism. There is absolutely no doubt that this approach works for some and works well. However, overall success rates tend to be dismally low. For instance AA reports a meager 5-7% retention rate for those attending these meetings. All is not hopeless for you or a loved one who has found a 12 step program not fully handling addiction or alcoholism. There are more non-traditional alternatives available with significantly higher success rates; Narconon Arrowhead is one of these.
