Treatment Center
As you search for a
treatment center for yourself or loved one look for actual tangible results, not just ‘x’ amount of days spent there with little or no results.
Also look for all the services you feel will be needed.
There is much more to drug
rehabilitation than a couple of weeks spent without using!
Are medical and nutritional needs being met?
Is there a full
detoxification of the body available or is it just withdrawal? Are the issues of cravings, quilt, and depression being fully confronted and resolved? Is legal assistance available if needed? Are services available to help repair and reestablish relationships and careers? Are services available to the families of the addict as well to help them better understand and deal with the process of rehabilitation? After all,
addiction affects more than the addict. Are skills and abilities being learned to assist the individual in achieving a drug free and productive life that lasts for a lifetime? With the highest long term success rate in the industry Narconon Arrowhead can and does proudly answer yes to all of the above and many more.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Alcoholic Anonymous statistics show a retention rate of 5 – 7%.
12 step
treatment options definitely work for some but not all by a long ways.
Many shorter term inpatient alcohol
treatment centers are based on 12 step methodologies and as such often suffer from the same low retention and success rates.
Narconon Arrowhead is a long term inpatient alcohol
treatment center that used the more effective but less traditional methods of education and empowerment.
We do not treat
alcoholism as an incurable disease that one is stuck with for life. Our success rates show that when the factors of cravings, guilt and depression are fully confronted and resolved that the need and desire for alcohol, or other substances for that matter, fades into the past as a motivating factor.
Addiction therapy is a very loose term given to hundreds of different methods of assisting the addicted individual or his family.
The could include nutrition, withdrawal, simply talking, formalized therapy sessions, replacing one drug with another as in methadone treatment, or any of countless other methods.
At Narconon Arrowhead the
addiction therapies we find most workable are drug free withdrawal, followed with FULL
detoxification of drug and toxins from the body, A full handling of the three main factors of
addiction – cravings, quilt, and depression.
These last items are handled with a multi-phase approach which delivers into the hands of the individual actual tools and abilities to fully resolve these points and so arrive at a drug free productive life that he can and does maintain.
Many people have a misunderstanding when it comes to detox.
Quite often it is confused with withdrawal.
Withdrawal is the process of ceasing the current drug or alcohol use with enough of the effects handled so as to give the individual a fighting chance at continued sobriety.
Detox on the other hand should involve removing the quantities of drugs and toxins that store in the fat tissues of the body, sometimes for years.
The Narconon Arrowhead New Life
Detoxification Program is done following withdrawal and results in a marked resurgence in the overall sense of well-being for the individual. Many, if not most, of our
detoxification program completions report an end to their drug or alcohol cravings at this point.
Executive Director of Narconon Arrowhead Gary W. Smith reports, ‘Although the number of people coming to us who are abusing pot is a smaller percentage of our total clientele, in the 30 years I have been in the drug
rehabilitation field I have not seen these numbers of individuals literally hooked on marijuana and unable to stop on their own.
We’ve known for a long time that marijuana use can lead to other drugs but it is shocking to see people whose lives are being destroyed by smoking pot just like others we are treating who are addicted to crack or alcohol.
I believe this is happening because the strength of the pot that is being smoked today is probably ten times stronger than the pot of 20 years ago.’
