Rehabilitation Centers
Rehabilitation Centers are facilities where the problems of
addiction and
alcoholism are addressed.
Rehabilitation is defined as returning to a previous state or condition or an improved state or condition.
With this in mind truly effective and successful
rehabilitation centers will address much more that mere cessation of drug or alcohol use, though this is a vital and important starting point.
The issues of cravings, guilt, and depression that led up to the
addiction and then continued it should be fully confronted and resolved, as well as full
detoxification of the body following use cessation.
Narconon Arrowhead
rehabilitation center fully addresses all these point and many more to ensure the best chances possible for a lifetime of drug free productiveness.
Drug Rehab Information By State
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.
A truly effective drug
rehabilitation experience involves several factors.
First of all of course is the cessation of current drug and alcohol use with a withdrawal process that is as painless as possible both mentally and physically.
Second is a truly effective
detoxification program which removes stored drugs, toxins, and poisons from the body. The New Life
Detoxification Program available at Narconon Arrowhead is state of the art
detoxification for Drug Rehabilitation.
Third is handling the Cravings (mental and physical), guilt and depression that go hand and hand with addiction.
Fourth is the acquiring of life skills needed to live a truly drug free, happy and prosperous life without constant fear of relapse. There are certainly other points of address, but these are the main categories to effective recovery in any drug
rehabilitation program. Narconon Arrowhead not only gets the individual clean, but more importantly assists them in acquiring the desire, mental outlook, and actual ability to live drug free for a lifetime!
Heroin is a highly addictive illegal drug. During the 1800’s opium
addiction was a major problem in the U.S.
Morphine was developed as supposedly a non-addictive substitute for opium but proved to be even more addictive.
The same is true of Heroin which was a supposedly non addictive replacement for morphine, but again is actually more addictive than opium or morphine.
In more modern times we know have methadone as a supposed ‘solution’ to heroin addiction.
Methadone is even more addictive than heroin. If withdrawal from heroin can be gruesome and harrowing, then methadone is even worse and can be life- threatening if unsupervised.
Addiction
treatment services are not all equal.
Finding the correct inpatient drug
rehab is essential.
Some are withdrawal services only.
Some inpatient drug
rehab services embrace a drug free approach to
rehabilitation while others feel that somehow more or different drugs are the answer.
12 step rehabs are the norm but with dismally low success rates inpatient
drug rehab treatment is moving more and more in a non-traditional direction. Narconon Arrowhead is a drug free, long-term inpatient
drug rehab that has been embracing non-traditional methodology for over 40 years with success rates that are among the highest of all inpatient
drug rehabs – non-traditional or not.
