What goes on in “drug rehab”?

     

  • An initial evaluation.
  • Drug Free Withdrawl. This is an all-natural approach that uses vitamins and minerals to flush the body.
  • The course-room is the next step which is comprised of drills and other practical steps that enable students to improve their ability to confront situations in life, to communicate and to resolve problems through communication.
  • Natural Detox. This step of the program removes drug residues and other toxic substances from the body naturally. These residues remain locked in fatty tissues of the body and can be released into the blood stream years after the person has stopped taking drugs.
  • The Communication & Perception part of treatment does a series of new exercises which fully extroverts the student and gets his attention off of himself and onto the environment. This greatly raises perception and ability to handle the environment and control over his life.
  • The next phase gives the student the ability to spot and handle those influences in his environment that would cause him to lose any gains he has made.
  • The program then teaches the student the eight survival dynamics, gives him valuable knowledge about personal ethics, honesty and integrity and shows him how to correct contra-survival behaviour by ridding himself of past harmful deeds.
  • Nearing the end of the treatment they then learn the exact step-by-step technology and formulas that he/she will need to apply and improve his life.
  • And lastly but definitely not least, the program teaches the student a non-sectarian moral code which is a guide to living a happy life – a code which they study to live their life by.

Why is it so hard to find a good rehab?

It all boils down to where to look. The main problem is that there are thousands of locations to choose from, all offering various programs.

Every philosophy believes that they are the number one cure for ever addiction, and this just not true. An assessment prior to treatment can fix this. Finding a program that matches an individuals specific needs is very important.

Bypass the sales pitch, and speak with our volunteer addiction consultants – they are unbiased, and have been through this process themselves. Many have been through more than one rehab, and they know first hand what works and what doesn’t.

Allow us to guide you through this challenging time in your life and match you up with a good program – one that works. 1-888-549-8819

What is all-natural rehab?

It’s very simple, all-natural rehab never replaces one drug with another. There are natural remedies to overcome addictions, however most of these remedies the medical and government community do not want you to know about it. Since profits are tied into keeping you sick and tied to your purchase of a new pill that will fix your problem then there is no benefit for them to promote these all-natural solutions. Unless you want to continue being an addict of the system – the all-natural method is the only treatment that will eliminate all drug use and cravings once and for all.

Why go to “drug or alcohol rehab”?

Removal of denial or the inability to confront one’s life is a major hurdle for every person to overcome. In most cases, the drug addict or alcoholic tend to minimize their use and the consequences associated with it. They tend to block out or deny the negative impact drug or alcohol abuse is having on themselves and their family. While in drug or alcohol rehab, thru the use of various clinical techniques, students are assisted in confronting their lives and taking responsibility for their actions.

The initial goal to achieve while in rehab is abstinence. As long as drug or alcohol remain in the blood stream, a person’s thought process remains somewhat distorted. This process of gradual clearing may take weeks or even months as a person progresses through their detoxification process or “detox”. As a person’s system clears, so does their thought process.

What is addiction treatment about?

Treatment can take many different forms, vary in length of time and take place in a variety of settings. For many, treatment is a long term process that involves multiple attempts to achieve recovery. No single drug or alcoholism treatment approach is appropriate for everyone, but most incorporate the following levels of care:

Detoxification and Medical Stabilization

Drugs stay in the body. We do not believe that one drug should be replaced by another. We only support all-natural rehab centres who’s main focus is to rid the human body of nasty drugs and toxins forever, cleansing their system and eliminating any future restimulation.

Is it brainwashing?

We wish it was that easy. Although it is easy to label something – it’s not so easy to eliminate this serious problem that has developed in an addict’s life.

Any bad habit is a form of conditioning, and any habit can be re-conditioned if, very importantly, one wishes to be re-conditioned.

There is no magic pill, no wave of the hand, and there are no hypnotic commands – only hard word with the right skills, drills, and formulas that have been developed to re-condition and eliminate a bad habit.

What if someone has been in drug rehab or alcoholism treatment before?

Addiction and alcoholism are chronic diseases which leave a person prone to relapse . As such, it is not unusual for a person to experience multiple treatment episodes prior to achieving long term recovery. Most individuals that experience long term recovery have relapsed at some point in their addiction recovery process and that relapse ends up being the springboard to the all-natural approach.

When relapse occurs and you are considering reentering treatment there are several questions you might want to ask yourself:

     

  • Is there a source of enabling that is sabotaging the person’s recovery?
  • Was a “true” recovery program ever in place?
  • Did the person follow their aftercare plan?
  • Is there a particular issue the person needs to resolve?
  • Is the drug or alochol rehab program the person is considering entering able to meet their special needs?

When these questions have been answered to the best of one’s ability, find an addiction treatment center that meets your needs and by all means, take action.

Back to questions

What if the drug addict or alcoholic doesn’t feel they have a problem?

The inability to confront one’s own issues is certainly part of the recovery process and is to be expected. Addicts and alcoholics are rarely honest when it comes to describing their drug or alcohol use, especially when speaking with loved ones. Regardless of the person’s initial motivation, lack of willingness or lack of honesty, if they will go to treatment, take them. One of the primary responsibilities of the treatment team is to deal with patient resistance. There are not very many people who like change. If your friend or loved one calls you from treatment and wants to leave and is still minimizing their problem, do not take any type of action before speaking with the students intake consultant at the treatment center. Chances are they might just want to use drugs or alcohol again. For those people in complete denial and unwilling to access treatment, you might need to seek the services of a trained interventionist .

Why can’t an alcoholic or drug addict just quit on their own?

Almost everyone who has suffered from drug addiction or alcoholism was under the belief that they would be able to either control or stop using drugs and alcohol on their own. They truly embraced the belief that things would never get out of control. Most attempts to stop or slow down result in a return to their drug of choice. Professionals associated with addiction medicine acknowledge that long term drug and alcohol use result in significant changes in brain chemistry. These changes may persist long after drug or alcohol use is discontinued. These changes in brain function may have behavioral consequences, including the compulsion to use drugs or alcohol despite adverse consequences. This is the defining characteristic of addiction. When you couple the aspect of craving and withdrawal symptoms with this concept, it is easy to understand why so many people find it difficult to recover without treatment.

If left untreated addiction can be fatal. The good news is that the Natural Rehab approach eliminates all drug cravings, and re-conditions bad habits so that all person is back in control of their life.

We do not believe that addiction is a disease, but it is a condition. A condition that can be fixed if properly treated.

Back to questions

How is substance abuse, drug rehab or alcoholism treatment paid for?

It is our experience that most private health insurance plans do provide for substance abuse treatment. In most cases, an 800 number will be located on the reverse side of your card which you can call and receive benefit information. Please keep in mind, that although they will provide you with benefit information, it does not mean you can access all of those benefits. That depends upon the acuity of the patient, their progress while in treatment and the relationship the treatment center has with the particular carrier. After speaking with the insurance carrier, we urge you to have the treatment center verify the benefits and they will be able to tell you exactly what the personal responsibility is.

For those people without insurance or private funds, there are facilities which are funded by state and federal agencies. The fees for these facilities generally follow a sliding scale.

AddictionLink is available to assist you in understanding your healthcare benefits. Just call, 1-888-549-8819 or email us at [email protected] and we will walk you through what can be a very confusing and unsettling process.

Back to questions

How can I locate a quality addiction treatment center?

While most addiction and alcohol treatment programs believe they are the best, the truth is one center can not be everything to everybody . Some people have special needs, others may have financial restrictions, while others still feel ill equipped to make such an important life altering decision. The best way to locate a quality treatment center is to speak to a professional in this field. You can call AddictionLink at 1-888-549-8819 for assistance, 24/7 or email us at [email protected]

Back to questions

What percentage of graduates remain drug-free?

Research done through contact with graduates of the programs we refer addicts to shows that 7 out of 10 graduates remain drug-free after a 5-year period. This is a very high percentage; most conventional programs only boast a 15 to 20 percent recovery rate, if that. Our programs get results.

If you have further questions or require immediate assistance locating an addiction treatment program or drug rehab center, call AddictionLink at 1-888-549-8819

Back to questions

How does AddictionLink differ from other rehab referral programs, including traditional 12 step programs?

AddictionLink makes referrals to programs that use their own unique form of cognitive therapy and physical purification. Through physical purification consisting of vitamins, exercise, and a flushing of the drug toxins, one is aided in coming completely off of drugs.

The rest of the program consists of a student learning how to regain control of their life and make amends for damages their addiction has caused themselves and others.

In most conventional drug treatment programs an addict is told that they are powerless over their addiction. We do not believe this is true.

These programs have shown overwhelming results for over 50 years. It proves that an addict can retake power over their life, and that there is a road out.

Back to questions

How long should someone spend in a drug reghab or alcoholism treatment?

The length of time a person needs to spend in drug rehab or alcoholism treatment varies from person to person.

What we do know, is the longer a person spends in a supportive recovering environment, the better the chances are that they will maintain long term recovery .

Secondly, the longer a person spends in addiction treatment, the greater the likelihood they will receive all the benefits treatment has to offer and lastly, leave this decision up to the treatment team. They are not easily manipulated and will base their recommendation on what the student needs, rather than what the student wants.

AddictionLink provides you with long-term solutions that have no cut-off date. 6 week programs, 60 days, 90 days, all are a thing of the past, and if you are currently considering one – we suggest that you eliminate it from the list.

The purpose of rehab is results, and by allowing us to match you up with a facility, you will be sure to enter a program that holds no time limits. When the student is ready, we will know, and that is final.

drug recoveryFinding the right drug rehabilitation program might be one of the toughest decisions of your life. Saving a life is no small task and finding the right program is the first and most important step.

I personally battled with addictions for over 12 years, and quite frankly, when it came down to finding a treatment center – it was a challenging and frustrating process, but in the end I was lucky to end up with a solution that worked for me.

Sobriety gave me a new beginning fo clear thinking, and clean health so that I could inspire others to embrace hope, to not give up, and to truly believe that there is a way to heal. This does not need to be a life debilatating disease if you don’t let it. This is a condition, a horrible condition, but one that can be treated and healed. I am proof of that, and so is the thousands of clients that we have found help for.

There are incredible holistic treatment facilities all across North America that do in fact work – that do in fact have amazing success rates.
