Pain Medication Abuse is an Increasing Concern for Drug Treatment Center

The Narconon Trois-Riviere drug and alcohol rehabilitation center has been seeing an ongoing demand of people looking for the proper help handling a pain medication addiction. Within the recent months there has been much news discussed and published about different pain medications destroying the lives of those who are abusing them. “This has become a major problem throughout Canada and the United States . Many of the people who are looking for help and are abusing pain medication have to go through a medical detox just to prevent any major health complications from occurring,” commented Nick Hayes, a representative of Narconon Trois-Rivieres. “Some of these pain medications are so destructive, it keeps the addict in complete fear of ever getting clean, due to physical pain the withdrawals can cause.”

During the month of June, the Narconon drug rehab program helped support the United Nations International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking by hosting a live drug rehab graduation. When the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime released the 2009 Drug Report, it talked about opiates still being a concern throughout most of the modern world.

The World’s First Dry-On-Contact H1N1 Sanitising Spray

A sanitising spray that kills 99.99% of Viruses, Bacteria and Germs is now available for purchase in the UK. The SaniGuard wipes, spray and fogger products were invented by David Morgan, president of DEM Technology in the United States.. After patenting the product he was awarded EPA registration for its use on food contact surfaces in 1996.

The World's First Dry-On-Contact H1N1 Sanitising Spray

One benefit of the spray is that there is no “wet dwell” time, meaning that users don’t need to wipe the product away prior to it being effective. According to US laboratory reports, the product kills 99.99% of germs in 30-45 seconds. It also exceeds the requirements of EN1276 in Europe.

Jim Taylor, formerly president of Smith & Nephew and now CEO of Saniguard International, based in Chorley, Lancashire, said: “SaniGuard contains a unique configuration of quarternary ammonium compounds (QUATS) and other proprietary components, which allow for the elimination of microbes that regular QUATS alone cannot kill.”

The dry-on-contact spray can be used in between regular cleaning on “hot spot” areas such as telephones, computer keyboards, light switches, door knobs and other areas that are frequently used and rarely cleaned. SaniGuard leaves no film or moisture on surfaces.

The spray is effective against Swine Flu, MRSA, HIV-1, herpes, herpes simplex 1 and 2, salmonella typhi, staphylococcus aureus, streptococcus epidermidis and pseudomonas aerginosa and fungi such as trichophyton interdigitolo (Athlete’s foot).

MisterSterile.com also offers the Total Release Fogger in a single-release aerosol, which is claimed to sanitise an entire room with the press of a button within 15-20 minutes. The product is available in small room (155ft²) and large room (625ft²) sizes.

The company says this product is safe for all surfaces and helps to stop the transmission of germs in high traffic areas such as lobbies, waiting rooms, hospital wards, GP surgeries and patient care facilities.

Anti-Bacterial, Anti-Virus Swine Flu prevention products from MisterSterile.com ‘Mr Sterile.com’ is authorised by SaniGuard International and have launched their new website to service the explosive demand for anti-bacterial, anti-virus products.

The Harley Medical Group Has Announced It Is To Offer A Pre And Post Surgery Health Plan

Fitness expert to the stars, Angie Best has written the guide exclusively for leading cosmetic surgery provider, The Harley Medical Group, as a part of the group’s holistic approach to patient care. The Angie Best Cosmetic Surgery Optimal Health Plan identifies the nutrients and exercise regimes the body requires to prepare for surgery and promote a fast recovery following any procedure.

Lisa Littlehales, Head Cosmetic Surgery Nurse at The Harley Medical Group said: “When patients attend their consultation at The Harley Medical Group, it is important to prepare them physically and mentally. We assess if they are fit and well enough to proceed with a major operation, as well as providing essential health awareness warnings such as cutting back on drinking and smoking. We find those who are well prepared for their surgery, with realistic expectations, tend to recover quicker.”

To help aid preparation and recovery even more effectively, The Angie Best Cosmetic Surgery Optimal Health Plan recommends a seven day detox diet plan pre-surgery to cleanse the body of toxins and build up immunity. Once the surgery’s over, the plan recommends nutrient packed recipes to promote tissue healing and boost energy. In addition carefully selected exercises chosen by Angie have been specifically designed to enhance the body’s circulation.

Angie Best, women’s health advisor and nutritionist, said: “My clients in LA often asked me for advice on how best to prepare their bodies for cosmetic surgery and what they needed to do in order to get the best results. This guide gives people advice on how to work with their surgeon by giving their bodies the nutrition they need to promote optimal recovery.”

About the Harley Medical Group:
The Harley Medical Group is the UK’s largest cosmetic and plastic surgery provider, performing more procedures and with more clinics than any other cosmetic surgery provider. It has been established for over 25 years and is one of the most highly-regarded Cosmetic Surgery Groups operating in the UK. It has treated over 435,000 patients to date.

The Best Drug Treatment Center Can End Up Being Your Lifeline

The most important drug treatment information is the kind that tells you what you need to hear-not what you want to hear. Too many exclusive Los Angeles treatment facilities lead their clients to believe that rehab is easy, as if getting sober were simply a matter of letting professional experts do the hard work for you. But nothing could be further from the truth. The fact of the matter is that recovery is always a product of personal effort. If you’re going to get better, in other words, it’s going to be because you work for it.

The practical implication is that the best treatment facilities are those which empower their clients. Only by developing the emotional and psychological skills necessary for real-world sobriety can you expect to win the long-term fight against addiction. The best drug treatment center can help you do that. The wrong one will leave you ill-equipped for the challenges that lie ahead.

BestDrugTreatmentCenter.com provides information on one of the best drug treatment centers in the world, where treatment programs involve individual privacy, luxury and a unique drug treatment therapy plan. If you’d like more information about the best drug treatment program for you, please call 1-877-822-2307, visit our website at http://www.bestdrugtreatmentcenter.com/, or contact us at admissions@bestdrugtreatmentcenter.com.

Drug Addiction Victims Find Hope At An Unparalleled Recovery Destination

Sunset Malibu, a luxurious treatment facility on the California coast, has long been a transformational force in the field of rehabilitation and recovery. Now, Sunset is announcing its redoubled efforts in the personal fight against substance abuse.

Addiction never afflicts any two victims in quite the same way. On the contrary, every rehab patient is a unique individual, with unique individual needs and a unique individual case history.

In the end, there’s simply no firmer foundation for meaningful and lasting recovery.

The Leading Alcohol Abuse Rehab Delivers The Best Care Possible

Cliffside Malibu, an upscale recovery clinic on the Malibu coast, has long been a leading light in the California treatment community. Now, the center is pleased to announce its renewed commitment to the fight against alcoholism.

Alcohol addiction is fundamentally distinct from drug addiction. Alcoholics face a unique set of challenges on the road to recovery, and alcohol rehabilitation must provide unique mechanisms of therapy and support. The practical implication, of course, is that the best alcohol abuse rehab centers are those which care most deeply about the individual needs of their individual clients. In the end, there’s no more effective approach to the healing process.

Those principles, in turn, comprise the core of Cliffside Malibu’s treatment philosophy.

With its expert caregivers and posh amenities, Cliffside Malibu is a world-class institution. The center has always catered to an elite clientele. Now Cliffside is expanding its mission, with the goal of delivering the best care on the planet to those individuals who need it. At Cliffside Malibu, nothing less than excellence will ever be acceptable.

“Alcohol treatment is a delicate process,” said Cliffside Malibu Clinical Director Patricia Freeberry. “To be successful, it has to be administered the right way, by clinicians who understand exactly what they’re doing. We provide our clients with everything they need to get better, from family therapy sessions to intensive depression treatment. That, in a nutshell, is why our exclusive treatment programs are so effective.”

Such effectiveness sets Cliffside apart from its competitors in California and around the world.

All treatment facilities offer alcohol rehabilitation services to their clients. But only a handful pay due heed to the nuance of the alcohol recovery process. Indeed, many of the most high-priced clinics in Los Angeles offer the same generic treatment programs to both alcoholics and drug addicts. As should perhaps be obvious, these institutions can’t be counted on to promote meaningful or lasting wellness.

For recovery patients and their families, say Cliffside administrators, that sort of failure is unacceptable.

Redoubled Efforts In The Fight Against Alcohol Dependency, Announced By Sunset Malibu

Sunset Malibu, an exclusive treatment center on the California coast, has long been a transformational force in the field of rehabilitation and recovery. Now, Sunset is announcing its redoubled efforts in the fight against alcohol dependency.

Redoubled Efforts In The Fight Against Alcohol Dependency, Announced By Sunset Malibu

Alcoholism is a disease. Like any disease, it can only be eradicated with the help of medical experts. The practical implication, of course, is that those alcohol abuse victims who try to recover outside of private alcohol abuse treatment centers are doomed to fail. In the end, there’s simply no road to wellness that doesn’t run through a professional clinic.

Those considerations, in turn, are at the heart of Sunset Malibu’s treatment philosophy.

With its world-class caregivers and elegant accommodations, Sunset Malibu is an unparalleled recovery destination. The center has always catered to upscale clients from every corner of the globe.

When Depression Treatment Is Administered In The Right Way Healing Becomes Easier

Depression is a jointly physical and psychological disease. Depression recovery, in turn, must entail both physical and psychological healing. As obvious as that sounds, the unfortunate truth is that many of the most high-priced depression treatment facilities in Los Angeles target one dimension of the disease while ignoring the other. In the end, such a strategy is and can only be a recipe for failure.

The good news is that Malibu’s most successful depression treatment center does things differently. The center was founded on the principle that depression recovery must be a holistic process, one that helps clients get better in body as well as in mind. That’s why the center’s exclusive treatment programs are explicitly designed to promote broad-based healing. It’s also why so many of the center’s clients really do get better for good.

Depression is an awful disease. Depression treatment can fix the problem, but only if it’s administered in exactly the right way, by people who know exactly what they’re doing. The clinical experts at Malibu’s best treatment facility will help you rediscover yourself as you used to be, before depression turned you into the person you are today. Under the circumstances, it’s hard to imagine that anyone could ever ask for anything more than that.

Depression treatment must always begin with an evaluation of a patient’s personal needs and case history. That sounds obvious, of course-but the fact is that too many “exclusive” depression treatment facilities administer generic and impersonal treatment programs. In the end, that is and can only be a recipe for failure.

There is no “universal” depression victim. By the same token, there can be no “universal” path to depression recovery. Healing, when it comes, will have to occur on your own terms, in a way that’s meaningful to you and no one else. A treatment program that can’t deliver that to you won’t ever help you get where you need to go.

The good news in all this is that at least one Malibu treatment facility understands the importance of personal attention in the healing process. That’s why the facility is recognized all around the world for its sterling success rate. More importantly, that’s why the facility is the place you’ve been looking for. Successful depression treatment will change your life. Don’t wait any longer to finally find that out for yourself.

Introducing A Private Substance Abuse Treatment Center With Cutting-Edge Rehabilitation Methods

Cliffside Malibu, an exclusive recovery center on the Malibu coast, has long been a leading light in the California treatment community. Now, the center is pleased to announce its renewed commitment to providing cutting-edge care in a luxurious and dignified environment.

Introducing A Private Substance Abuse Treatment Center With Cutting-Edge Rehabilitation Methods

Rehab is never easy. On the contrary, addiction is a ferocious disease, and addiction recovery can only be the product of determined effort. The practical implication, of course, is that rehab patients need the best possible support on the road to wellness. In the end, there’s simply no other way to ensure the long-term success of the healing process.

Those principles, in turn, lie at the very heart of Cliffside Malibu’s treatment philosophy.

With its expert caregivers and posh amenities, Cliffside Malibu is a world-class institution. The substance abuse treatment center has always catered to an elite clientele. Now Cliffside is expanding its mission, with the goal of delivering the best care on the planet to those individuals who need it. At Cliffside Malibu, nothing less than excellence will ever be acceptable.

“Our clients deserve the most effective support we can provide,” said Cliffside Malibu Clinical Director Patricia Freeberry. “That’s why we aim to meet each and every individual need of each and every individual resident, with everything from professional depression treatment to gourmet meals. It’s also, we believe, why so many of those residents achieve meaningful and lasting wellness.”

That passion for service and that record of success both set Cliffside apart from its competitors.

All rehabilitation clinics make bold promises in their advertising brochures. But only a handful live up to them. The unfortunate fact of the matter is that many of the most high-priced clinics in California fall far short of their own standards of quality. The result, unsurprisingly, is that those clinics can’t be counted on to produce meaningful healing for their clients.

Cliffside administrators, for their part, insist that such failures are unacceptable.

LuxuryDrugRehab.com – The Help You Need, The Luxury You deserve

Affluent addiction victims expect luxurious and exclusive service from their rehabilitation facilities. Unfortunately, their search for such high-end service is often impeded by a lack of transparency in the luxury rehab industry.

LuxuryDrugRehab.com - The Help You Need, The Luxury You deserve

Now, finally, that dynamic is beginning to change.

LuxuryDrugRehab.com is pleased to announce a new referral service linking affluent addiction victims to the best treatment and recovery facilities on earth. The goal of LuxuryDrugRehab.com is to help those victims find the addiction treatment facility that’s exactly right for them. To do that, the service provides clients with expert personal advice and a thorough understanding of the treatment options available to them.

Given the nature of rehab center advertising and information campaigns, such objective insight can make all the difference in the world.

Rehab is a complex process. To make an intelligent rehabilitation decision, prospective patients need thorough and accurate information about the various clinics available to them. The fact of the matter is that smart choices are and can only be made by informed individuals. In the end, there’s simply no better way to guarantee a successful outcome to the healing process.

Unfortunately, many “exclusive” treatment facilities actively and intentionally obscure the truth about their programs and amenities.

There’s plenty of drug treatment information on the Internet. Some of it is accurate. Much more of it is misleading. It’s one thing for a treatment center to boast about its “guaranteed” addiction treatment strategies-but quite another for that facility to actually live up to its promises. In the opaque world of online brochures, it’s often difficult to distinguish the pretenders from the real thing.

Under the circumstances, that sort of confusion can lead to disaster.

Addiction is an awful disease. Addiction treatment can help to solve the problem, provided that it’s administered by people who really do know what they’re doing. LuxuryDrugRehab.com has already helped countless clients find professional rehab facilities worthy of their trust. As those clients have learned firsthand, no gift could ever be more valuable.

“You found me a rehab center where for the first time I was able to get the healing I needed in a quiet, private space with constant attention,” reads one of the clients testimonials on the LuxuryDrugRehab.com Web site. “All I could hear when I woke up in the morning was the sound of the ocean and the birds. It was exactly the kind of space I needed to heal.”

And that healing, in the end, is the only outcome that really matters.

Sunset Is Announcing Its Redoubled Efforts In The Fight Against The Psychological Underpinnings Of Addiction


Sunset Is Announcing Its Redoubled Efforts In The Fight Against The Psychological Underpinnings Of Addiction

Addiction is never strictly a physical disease. On the contrary, addiction victims are prone to negative patterns of thought and behavior, which can act to entrench and exacerbate their substance dependencies. The practical implication, of course, is that addiction treatment programs must always promote emotional wellness. In the end, there’s simply no other way to guarantee the success of the healing process.

Those considerations, in turn, are at the heart of Sunset Malibu’s holistic treatment philosophy.

With its world-class caregivers and elegant accommodations, Sunset Malibu is an unparalleled recovery destination. The drug and alcohol treatment center has always catered to upscale clients from every corner of the globe. Now Sunset is renewing its commitment to its core values, with the goal of delivering life-changing, comprehensive care to individuals who seek it. At Sunset Malibu, the client’s holistic needs always come first.

“There’s no such thing as partial addiction recovery,” said Sunset Malibu program director Dr. Georgina Smith. “We understand that healing has to occur both in the body and the mind, which is why we use special dual-diagnosis techniques to assess each client’s substance dependency in conjunction with his or her psychiatric wellness. It’s also, we believe, why we’ve been so successful in our treatment efforts.”

Unfortunately, the same praise can’t be given to Sunset’s competitors.

Most treatment centers pay lip service to the importance of holistic recovery. But very few of them put in their own principles into practice. In fact, many of the most high-priced clinics in California pay only nominal attention to the psychological needs of their clients. As should perhaps be obvious, those institutions routinely fail to effect meaningful and lasting recovery.

Dr. Smith, for her part, insists that those shortcomings are unforgivable.

“Addiction ruins lives,” Dr. Smith said. “Addiction treatment can save them, but only if it’s administered exactly the right way. At Sunset Malibu, we understand that our clients trust us to safeguard their future, and we stop at nothing to ensure that we justify their faith.”

Addiction victims know all too well how devastating the disease can be. The good news is that that devastation doesn’t have to be the end of the story. Sunset Malibu’s clinical psychologists and licensed clinical social workers have a long history of helping clients rebuild their lives from the ground-up. For Sunset’s residents and their families, the future really does promise to be brighter than the present.

A New Study Presented At The 26th Annual Meeting Of The American Society For Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery Confirms That Laparoscopic Gastric Banding Surgery Results In An 83% Improvement Or Remission Of Type 2 Diabetes

A new study presented at the 26th Annual Meeting of the American Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery confirms that laparoscopic gastric banding surgery (LAGB) results in sustained weight loss as well as an 83% improvement or remission of Type 2 diabetes.

A New Study Presented At The 26th Annual Meeting Of The American Society For Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery Confirms That Laparoscopic Gastric Banding Surgery Results In An 83% Improvement Or Remission Of Type 2 Diabetes

Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding surgery (LAGB) not only results in sustained weight loss for morbidly obese patients, but it also provides an improvement or remission of Type 2 diabetes in 83% of the patients.

This news, the results of a new study, was presented at the 26th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS). The event was held in Dallas, Texas, and Slimband was there to learn first-hand about the ground breaking study.

To date, this is the largest long-term study on the impact of gastric banding on diabetes. This study strongly suggests that there is a definite connection between diabetes and morbid obesity. The study noted that the patients who achieved and maintained a significant weight loss also realized the greatest remission of diabetes in a shorter time frame.

The study included 95 participants who ranged in age prior to surgery from 21 to 68 years, with an average BMI (Body Mass Index) of 46. Researchers from New York University (NYU) Medical Center conducted the study from January 2002 through January 2004. Approximately 88% of the patients were taking oral medications to control their diabetes and about 15% were using insulin. On average, the patients had been diagnosed with diabetes about 6 ½ years before surgery.

As routine follow up to the surgery, the patients’ weight was monitored and blood tests were done. During the first year, researchers followed each patient on a monthly basis, and during the second year the follow-ups were every three months.

After that, the follow-ups were annual unless more frequent visits were needed. At the end of the five-year follow-up period the data clearly showed that in about 40% of patients, diabetes was in remission and in about 43% it was improved, which resulted in a combined improvement/remission rate of 83%.

The incidence of diabetes and obesity is on the rise and that has resulted in several studies for effective methods for sustaining weight loss and for diabetes remission. Bariatric Surgery has been shown to be an excellent option for the treatment of morbid obesity as well as a way to improve Type 2 diabetes.

ASMBS is a non-profit organization that works to progressively move forward in the science of gastric banding surgery.

New Heights In Drug Abuse Treatment

Cliffside Malibu, a prestigious recovery facility in the Malibu hills, has long been a leading light in the California treatment community. Now, the center is pleased to announce its renewed commitment to helping clients heal in a serene, secluded environment.

Drug abuse treatment is always an arduous process. Those patients who complete it successfully are invariably the ones who feel most secure and supported along the way. The best treatment centers, then, are those whose atmospheres are most suited to personal comfort and peace of mind. And, in the end, there’s simply no substitute for the most exclusive enclave on the California coast.

Those principles, in turn, help to explain the robust success rates enjoyed by Cliffside Malibu’s residents.

With its expert caregivers and posh amenities, Cliffside Malibu is a world-class institution. The drug abuse treatment center has always catered to an elite clientele. Now Cliffside is expanding its mission, with the goal of delivering the planet’s best care in the planet’s best place. At Cliffside Malibu, administrators know that the right surroundings can make all the difference.

“Recovery doesn’t happen in a vacuum,” said Cliffside Malibu Program Director Dr. Georgina Smith. “On the contrary, environment matters in the healing process. That’s why Cliffside Malibu takes such great pride in its secluded private estate. It’s also why our clients so often achieve meaningful and lasting recovery.”

Unfortunately, that place-specific success is precisely what distinguishes Cliffside from its competitors in other parts of the country.

Most rehab facilities really do try to meet the needs of their clients. But every clinic is inherently limited by its geographical location. For all their efforts, treatment centers in Los Angeles or New York simply can’t recreate the unique ambiance of Malibu. As should go without saying, those natural shortcomings often impede the healing process.

For recovery patients and their families, say Cliffside administrators, that sort of stumbling block is unacceptable.

Cliffside Malibu is a luxury alcohol and drug abuse treatment center located in Malibu, California. For further details about Cliffside’s treatment methods, amenities, or other general information about drug abuse treatment, please call 1-800-501-1988 or visit our Web site at www.cliffsidemalibu.com.

LighterLife Has Conducted A New Survey That Has Revealed The Shocking Scale Of Abuse Faced By Overweight People In Britain

LighterLife has conducted a new survey that has revealed the shocking scale of abuse faced by overweight people in Britain, with nine out of 10 overweight Britons having been called a derogatory name due to their weight.

LighterLife Has Conducted A New Survey That Has Revealed The Shocking Scale Of Abuse Faced By Overweight People In Britain

The survey of over 1,000 adults conducted by weight loss specialist LighterLife, revealed that the younger generation are the worse culprits with 56% of 16-24 year olds cited as responsible for name calling compared to 35% of 55-64 year olds.

When it comes to insulting friends and relatives, men are the most cruel with nearly a third admitting to name calling compared to just 11% of women. Shockingly, 33% of obese or very obese people admitted that they also called others names despite being overweight themselves. And it is friends who appear to receive the brunt of this abuse. Overall, 68% reserved abuse for their friends, 15% insulted their siblings while partners and parents are equal at 10% each.

Mandy Cassidy, a psychotherapist with LighterLife, said: “It’s sad that adults now find such behaviour acceptable, particularly so among the younger age groups, as they could well carry these views as they get older, thus increasing the problem even further.

People can appear to shrug off comments, she added, but inside, they can be devastated: “Often it is only through counselling that the full impact becomes clear – many of our clients have resorted to avoiding social occasions and decline invitations.

“Even some people who appear totally confident say that they become ‘really good liars’ and concoct a range of excuses for not attending events which can drive them indoors to eat as a way of dealing with their hurt and anger, compounding the problem.

“Just because someone is overweight, it doesn’t mean it’s acceptable to insult them. This type of prejudice isn’t tolerated in any other walk of life so we shouldn’t allow it here.”
