Detox
Detox in many drug
rehab programs involves weaning the addict or
alcoholic off the use of the drugs or alcohol.
While this is an important and vital action, it is only part of a true detoxification.
One definition in the Encarta dictionary states; ‘process of removing or transforming poison’.
At Narconon Arrowhead our ‘detox’ protocols include ceasing use of the drugs or alcohol as above, but also include the additional step of The New Life
Detoxification Program.
This extensive program involves an exact procedure for actually removing drugs and toxins from the body. Many, many addicts have reported a complete cessation of cravings following the New Life
Detoxification Program.
Detox is only the start of the healing process and needs to be as complete and thorough as possible to ensure lasting gains for a lifetime.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Heroin addiction, as with any of the opium derivatives, creates a severe physical/mental dependency. With regular heroin use, tolerance develops. This means the abuser must use more and more heroin to achieve the same intensity or effect. With heroin
addiction the body has adapted to the presence of the drug and withdrawal symptoms occur if use is reduced or stopped. Withdrawal, which in heroin
addiction may occur as early as a few hours after the last administration, produces drug craving, restlessness, muscle and bone pain, insomnia, diarrhea and vomiting, cold flashes with goose bumps (‘cold turkey’), kicking movements (‘kicking the habit’), and other symptoms.
Narconon Arrowheads unique approach to withdrawal keeps these symptoms to a minimum and by actual report sometimes totally removes these symptoms.
Alcohol
rehab means to restore the individual to the condition they were in prior to the
alcoholism and preferably an improved condition.
Accompanying any
alcoholism are cravings, guilt, and depression which must be confronted and fully resolved in order to achieve a lasting alcohol free lifestyle.
With alcoholism the only other options to sobriety are death or jail.
The last two need not occur with a competent alcohol
rehab program that fully resolves the above three factors.
Painkiller
addictions are among some of the most tenacious and difficult
addictions to beat despite the widespread erroneous belief than these are safer to use than street drugs such as heroin.
These
painkiller addictions often result from the use of opiods.
These are opium type compounds such as Codeine, Hydrocodone, and Oxycodone.
Painkiller addictions result from interference with the nervous system couple with stimulation of pleasure receptors in the brain.
This accounts for the almost epidemic
abuse of these drugs to get ‘high’. As tolerance increases more and more of the drug is needed to stave off withdrawal and maintain the high. Narconon Arrowhead drug
rehab regimens fully address the endless cycle of painkiller
addiction to a full resolution and the ability to live a drug free and productive life!
At Narconon Arrowhead we do no refer to our participants as ‘patients’ but rather they are considered ‘students’. Using the word ‘patient’ tends to give an erroneous impression of illness and disease, which is not the main thrust of our program.
Certainly issues of health and nutrition need to corrected, especially in the withdrawal and
detoxification phases of the program. The term student is used as we are educating the individual into the use of the tools and abilities needed to sustain a continuous drug free productive life and to confront and resolve the three main factors behind relapse and continued use.
Addiction is not a disease of a lifetime.
It can and is being ended on a daily basis here a Narconon Arrowhead.
