Finding Drug Rehabs Offering Personalized Recovery Programs

Drug rehabs aren’t all the same. On the contrary, every drug rehab center is invariably shaped by the quality of therapists it employs. If you’re serious about getting sober, it’s imperative that you enroll in drug rehabs managed by competent and compassionate professionals. In the end, there’s simply no other way to achieve meaningful and lasting drug recovery.

Drug rehabs are always hard. Those patients who complete their drug rehab programs successfully are the ones who get the best support along the way, from caregivers who know exactly what they’re doing and care deeply about the work. The right drug rehabs administered by the right drug rehab experts will quite literally change your life. You owe it to yourself, and to the people who care about you, to learn that truth on your own terms.

In the hills above the Malibu coast is a facility offering effective drug rehabs with a long record of clinical success. Much of that success can be attributed to the center’s licensed clinical therapists, all of whom are leading figures in their respective fields. The day you enroll in one of the center’s exclusive drug rehabs will be the day you start rediscovering yourself as you used to be, before your disease turned you into the person you are today. Don’t wait any longer to finally make the right choice.

Connecticut Alcoholism Treatment Program Offers Comprehensive Approach To Treating Addictions

On a quiet afternoon, you can find a variety of individuals from all walks of life actively participating in Mountainside Addiction Treatment Center’s variety of programs. But, from an outsider’s perspective, you would never know that the activities these individuals are participating in, actually equip them for life-long continued self-recovery from their addictions.

Connecticut Alcoholism Treatment Program Offers Comprehensive Approach To Treating Addictions

Nestled in the foothills of the Berkshires, this unassuming facility specializes in offering comprehensive treatment programs for those struggling with addictions.

“In the early 90’s, we pioneered a program that set the standard for other drug rehab and alcohol treatment centers worldwide,” states a spokesperson for Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment center. “We realized the importance of true comprehensive treatment options for individuals. We took that vision, developed a team of caring, compassionate, professionals ranging from Licensed and Certified Alcohol and Drug Rehab Counselors, Psychiatrist and Nurse Practitioners, to a Spiritual Advisor and Mind Body Spirit Program Director.

Yeadon Pharmacy Backs National No Smoking Day

A Yeadon pharmacy is getting behind next Wednesday’s national No Smoking Day (10 March) by taking up temporary residence at two local health centres in a bid to help members of the community stop smoking.

Following the success of last year’s event at Yeadon Health Centre, staff from The Co-operative Pharmacy in High Street will extend their advice sessions to offer help on stopping smoking at Silver Lane Surgery.

In partnership with the two health centres, staff will set up a stand in the South View Road and Suffolk Court clinics between 10:00am and 5:00pm.

Open to patients from all neighbouring surgeries, visitors will be given advice and counselling on giving up smoking and invited to use a smokerlyser, which measures the amount of carbon monoxide in the lungs and blood.

Patients will also be able to book appointments for the three-month smoking cessation programme and can receive free samples of nicotine patches and gum.

The Co-operative Pharmacy branch manager, Sageer Sharif, said: “Last year’s event was extremely popular with visitors and we think that this year’s national theme – ‘Break free’ – developed with smokers themselves, will have a powerful effect.

Overcome Prescription Drug Addiction

Cliffside Malibu, a prestigious recovery facility 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 helping clients overcome prescription drug addiction in a private and dignified setting.

Overcome Prescription Drug Addiction

Prescription drug addiction is personal problem. By the same token, prescription drug addiction treatment should be a private process. The best prescription drug addiction rehab facilities are those which most effectively shield their clients from public scrutiny. In the end, any inferior standard of care is simply unacceptable.

Those principles, in turn, are the bedrock of Cliffside Malibu’s treatment philosophy.

With its expert caregivers and posh amenities, Cliffside Malibu is a world-class institution. The prescription drug addiction 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 celebrity clients face enormous challenges on the road to wellness,” said Cliffside Malibu’s Program Director. “As a prescription drug addiction treatment center, it’s our role to ensure that they’re allowed to pursue recovery without having to look over their shoulders for paparazzi. We believe that our long record of success reflects the depth of our commitment to confidentiality.”

Unfortunately, that commitment to confidentiality is also precisely what distinguishes Cliffside from its competitors.

Vista Bay Drug Rehab Success Through Holistic Cocaine Addiction Recovery

Video footage posted on YouTube offers the public a rare glimpse at Narconon Vista Bay Rehab, a drug and alcohol treatment center that’s renowned worldwide for its holistic cocaine addiction recovery program. Vista Bay Drug Rehab is not the sort of facility that’s in the spotlight, despite the fact that Narconon has built a reputation for highly effective holistic treatment programs for over 40 years. While the facility is highly regarded (with recognition that extends to being awarded a Congressional Certificate), the staff is content to let the center’s success in helping patients finally overcome their addictions speak for itself.

Vista Bay Drug Rehab Success Through Holistic Cocaine Addiction Recovery

Brandon (his last name is with held to protect his identity), a 22 year old who fought addictions to cocaine, marijuana and alcohol, is a typical success story. After years of substance abuse, doctors told him he had suffered permanent nerve damage. He was literally throwing his life away. He enrolled at vistabay, hoping to turn his life around, and after graduation wrote:

“I have been clean now for five months, and I will continue on this track for the rest of my life… I feel blessed that the Narconon program saved my life and I have learned to live life, instead of letting my environment (sic) have a negative effect on me.”

There have been thousands of other patients like Brandon. Watching the video on YouTube, where a graduate of the program recounts everything he’s gained since completing treatment, including reaching the stage where he’s able to set and achieve goals in his life, is poignant and helps to put a human face on why Narconon expends so much effort in helping people overcome addictions.

Vista Bay Drug Rehab Center is different from most other drug rehab clinics. The patient is the priority and the treatment program for each patient is customized to meet their individual needs. An all natural, holistic approach to cocaine addiction is employed, rather than the clinical treatment that most centers rely on and the success rate of Vista Bay Rehab supports the idea that holistic treatment is a superior method.

Narconon has offered drug addiction rehabilitation for over 40 years and the cocaine addiction program at Vista Bay Rehab continues to gain recognition for its success rate. Even though 30 days of additional treatment are offered should a patient suffer a relapse within six months of graduating from the program, the staff is seldom called upon to make good on this promise. Based in California, with a beautiful and well equipped facility (which can be seen on the YouTube video), Vista Bay Drug Rehab is truly a permanent solution to cocaine addiction and other substance abuse issues.

Vista Bay Rehab and Bay Area Community Create Family Intervention Success

Family is the constant that everyone should be able to count on. When a family member loses their way, becoming caught in the net of drug or alcohol addiction, Narconon Vista Bay Rehab is the addiction treatment facility of choice for family members who care enough to take action. While the holistic program at Vista Bay Drug Rehab differs radically from most clinical addiction recovery programs, the staff and their ability to reach out to the family of patients is one of the key reasons that vista bay graduates succeed where so many others fail. Testimonial from G.G., a father whose addict son was spiraling out of control is typical of what family members say of the program:

Vista Bay Rehab and Bay Area Community Create Family Intervention Success

“Living at home after his third state rehab stay things went from bad to worse. Our son began to steal money from family and friends. He would pawn expensive household things to support his habit. His cocaine habit had torn our family apart and the decision was made, I would take my own son to jail. I was forcibly placing him in the car when my wife came to me with what she called, the answer. She had contacted a man named Francisco at a place named Narconon. I told her it was just another 28 day rip off, but today I am glad she insisted. My son is still at Narconon, not as a patient, but helping others with their problems. ”

Other testimonials from families in the Bay area community, including those beginning to show up as a video on YouTube, are common. They reflect the fact that Vista Bay offers an extremely effective addiction treatment program (often succeeding where others have failed multiple times) and that the staff and family interaction, whether through intervention, treatment or follow-up after graduation, is both valuable and recognized within the community.

Drug and Alcohol Addiction Destroys Families No Further

“It took around 2000 hours to put this data base together,” commented Marcel Gemme, the Owner of Drug Rehab Services. The data base he is referring to is the first ever of its kind in Canada . Simply put, it is a one-stop-shop for your entire drug and alcohol treatment needs. “Our directory includes lists of outpatient, detox centers, medical detox locations, assessments, home detox information, residential treatment (free programs included), shelters, aftercare, AA meetings, and NA meetings. All of these services are listed, which you can find easily using the online locator,” said Marcel. He went on to say, “there are also specific categories to narrow down your search, such as youth treatment, treatment centers for woman, and centers for men.”

With this being one of the most extensive and easy to use data bases ever developed, it truly eliminates the problems of finding the right treatment. Many data bases that are created are sometimes difficult to use and may be incomplete, and in most cases you can’t even talk to a real counselor. “Canadians who are looking for the right help can search this directory for options in there own province and city, narrowing the search down to specifically what they need,” added Marcel. The internet can, unfortunately, not be user friendly, especially in a crisis situation looking for help. Drug Rehab Services found this to be one of the main problems Canadians were facing. And when it came down to locating help for drug or alcohol addiction, it sometimes was next to impossible to find the right treatment; this now has all changed.

Pharmacy Warns On Sex Infections Danger

One of the UK’s leading pharmacies has issued a stark warning to older women about the dangers of unprotected sex – hot on the heels of a major national campaign to raise awareness of unplanned pregnancies among women over 35.

The Co-operative Pharmacy, which has nearly 800 branches, has seized on the “Conceivable?” campaign, launched by the Family Planning Association (FPA) last week, to highlight the fact that unplanned pregnancies are not the only issue facing older women – sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the 45-64 age group are also showing a worrying increase, with Chlamydia up 119%.1

“Any woman who thinks that these problems are faced only by teenagers must think again,” said Wendy Lee, Clinical Governance Pharmacist at The Co-operative Pharmacy.

“As more adults begin new relationships later on in life, they are not always thinking about the consequences of unprotected sex.”

Research also shows that nearly a third (32%) of 45-54 year olds believe that it is unlikely or very unlikely that they would be at risk of getting an STI if they had unprotected sex with a new partner or someone other than their current partner.2

Lee explains: “Some STIs don’t cause any symptoms, especially in women and if these go undetected this can cause more widespread health problems later on.

“There are a number of contraceptive options available and these generally suit all age ranges. However, male condoms provide the most effective protection against STIs.

“All options should be discussed with a healthcare professional and they will be able to provide the relevant support and guidance, including advice on emergency contraception.”

All branches of The Co-operative Pharmacy offer advice on contraception and STIs as well as many other prescription services and hayfever treatments.

Courtney Love Isn’t Alone When It Comes To Rumors Of Drug Addiction

Courtney Love is facing a problem that many stars and public figures experience when they encounter problems – complete loss of privacy. Issues such as drug addiction and alcoholism recovery often rest on a principle of anonymity, for Love and many like her – their solution is different. Love’s public history with drug abuse has spanned over a decade and has affected many areas of her life, most recently rumored to be the cause for the loss of custody of her daughter. Courtney is under constant public scrutiny. The loss of anonymity that stars experience often complicates an individual’s recovery, however many do recover.

Love’s most recent online rants regarding her daughter have caused her fans to believe she has fallen back into the drug scene. Courtney maintains that she is sober and her life has changed since her 2006 house arrest for violating an order for a previous court-mandated drug addiction treatment program.

“We certainly hope that Ms. Love has gotten the appropriate drug addiction treatment and that she continues to maintain her sobriety”, a spokesperson for Mountainside Center states. “When you’re a star who is trying to stay in recovery and you are continually scrutinized for every move you make, the path to sobriety is often a challenging one. We understand those pressures and the pitfalls one can easily fall into, especially when they do not have the luxury of anonymity. No matter how much despair one feels, there really is hope—there really is a remedy. We all hope the best for Courtney and her daughter”.

For nearly two decades, Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center has led the way in offering individualized alcohol and drug addiction treatment programs. Pioneers in affordable drug addiction treatment, Mountainside combines cutting edge therapies with holistic treatment methods including inclusion of traditional 12-step therapies. As Mountainside’s licensed and certified counselors, social workers and treatment team serve, they strive to provide quality, compassionate care to each individual in a tranquil, peaceful environment conducive to optimal recovery.

Hollywood Drug Addiction Increases Number of Drug Rehabs

The bright lights and big city of Hollywood attracts young people in throngs with promises of fulfilled dreams and a charmed life. While the draw and the excitement initially seems like everything they could have hoped for, nowadays there’s a darker side—a side that is becoming synonymous with something other than fame.

“Hollywood is a hot bed of drug addiction”, a spokesperson for Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center states. “With money and power, comes responsibility—responsibility that many find themselves unable to deal with. When arriving in Hollywood, they just can’t imagine a life other than what they had dreamed—a life of glamour, of fame, of fortune. They don’t realize the pressure that surrounds all of those things. When they finally realize their dreams, that unexpected pressure can cause an implosion and, instead of dealing with it in a healthy, productive way, many choose the easy way out—a way to numb themselves, a way to temporarily escape. And, often times that temporary escape becomes a permanent way of life until either they get into serious legal trouble or until someone who is genuinely concerned intervenes and gives them a wake-up call. They soon discover that their money can buy just about anything—except the one thing that truly eludes them: happiness.”

“California’s drug rehab centers are growing at an unprecedented rate and the catalyst for this growth is unrelenting.” Until there is a fundamental change in the Hollywood | Los Angeles party mentality, the only answer to its ever-increasing problem is effective drug rehab centers.

For nearly two decades, Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center has led the way in offering individualized alcohol and drug addiction treatment programs. Pioneers in affordable drug rehab, Mountainside combines cutting edge therapies with holistic treatment methods including inclusion of traditional 12-step therapies.

The Dopamine Factor In Addiction

A recent study out of London suggests that individuals with high levels of dopamine may be more susceptible to drug addiction and may be prone to engaging in high risk behaviors and activities.

Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that is responsible for the natural reward system and provides pleasure and motivation within the brain. The recent study finds that the more dopamine within the brain, the less sensitive an individual is to it. This finding could result in better drug addiction treatment, better ADHD treatment as well as treatment for a host of dopamine-related afflictions. The study suggests that regulating the dopamine within an individuals’ system may be more effective than blocking the dopamine receptors altogether.

“This is a very promising finding”, remarks an expert at Mountainside Addiction Treatment Center who have long been advocates of physiological and neural research. “A brain scan could be performed on a person in a higher risk group, such as those who have histories of family pre-dispositions to various addictions. There has been ongoing debate relating to neurobiological theories centered around the mesolimbic pathway, which these findings seems to support. The brightest part of this study is the potential for early intervention—that is crucial in any step of the addiction cycle. The earlier the intervention, the greater the chance for success. Obviously, truly anyone can recover with an effective rehabilitation program and the desire to change, however, statistics show the longer the addiction, the longer the recovery process.”

Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center is a comprehensive and innovative provider of treatment for individuals suffering from drug addiction and alcoholism. In addition to its inpatient services the organization also takes part in advocacy, outcome studies and outreach efforts.

Finding A Drug Treatment Program With Everything You Need For Lasting Recovery

Sunset Malibu, an exclusive drug 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 providing clients with long-term support during the drug treatment process.

Finding A Drug Treatment Program With Everything You Need For Lasting Recovery

Addiction recovery doesn’t happen overnight. On the contrary, drug abuse is a resilient disease, and drug treatment can only succeed if it’s driven by sustained effort. The most effective drug treatment program is the one that ensures the long-term health of its clients, with everything from sober living programs to independent 12-Step support networks. In the end, any inferior standard of care is doomed to fail.

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. Now Sunset is renewing its commitment to its core values, with the goal of delivering life-changing care to individuals who seek it. At Sunset Malibu, the client always comes first.

“Our clients come to us because they want to get better forever,” said Sunset Malibu’s Clinical Director. “It’s our role as a drug treatment program to help them do that, by ensuring that they’re fully supported through every phase of the healing process. We believe that our commitment to sober living and aftercare programs is reflected in our robust record of clinical success.”

Unfortunately, that passion for long-term treatment is precisely what sets Sunset apart from its competitors.

Any drug treatment program can talk about the importance of long-term recovery. It takes a special institution, though, to actually live up to its own standards. The fact of the matter is that many of the most “exclusive” drug treatment centers in Los Angeles essentially abandon their clients at the end of their primary rehab programs. As should go without saying, these clinics can’t be trusted to promote meaningful or lasting wellness.

Under the circumstances, argues Sunset Malibu’s Clinical Director, those shortcomings are inexcusable.

Sunset Malibu offers luxury alcohol and drug treatment programs located in Malibu, California. For further details about Sunset’s treatment strategies, accommodations, or other general facts about drug treatment, please call 1-800-332-9202 or visit our Web site at http://www.drugrehabsunsetmalibu.com/.

Narconon Holistic Residential Treatment Center Gives Life Back to Families Permanently

After a year of watching Lindsey B. waste away from an addiction to crystal meth, her family held an intervention with the help of a Narconon holistic drug rehab counselor. The mother of three children was throwing her life away, and her loved ones had had enough.

Narconon Holistic Residential Treatment Center Gives Life Back to Families Permanently

“The intervention made me realize that my family knew I had a problem,” recalled Lindsey, “and that I really wanted help. I came to the Narconon drug treatment center the same night as the intervention. I was ready to change my life and was open to what Narconon had to offer me.”

Just like Lindsey’s family, many don’t know where to turn when a loved one has a drug addiction but will not seek treatment. Lindsey’s family turned to Narconon VistaBay, where an intervention specialist was assigned to help prepare the family for the painful and difficult conversation to come. During the intervention, the specialist kept the conversation productive and on track, with the end result being Lindsey agreeing to Narconon drug rehab.

Once at one of the Narconon holistic rehabilitation centers, Lindsey began a physical detoxification to rid her body of drugs. Clearing the body of all drug residues, through daily sauna treatments and exercise, is an important part of the Narconon drug rehab process. Once the body is healthy, Lindsey began individual and group therapy sessions to discover the reasons behind her addiction. Throughout her recovery, Lindsey’s family received regular updates regarding her progress. At her graduation, they were there to applaud her success.

“Narconon is great,” said Lindsey on the day she graduated from the Narconon holistic drug rehab at VistaBay. “All of the staff and students have been excellent throughout my entire time here … Narconon offers a way to find out who you really are and informs you of all of the possibilities life has to offer. I could never have found them without Narconon.”

Narconon Holistic Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs in California

When it comes to drug and alcohol rehab, Narconon Vista Bay has a unique approach: physical detoxification combined with cognitive individual and group therapy. Add into the mix family involvement, a relaxing setting in the Sierra Foothills and no fixed length of stay, and it’s easy to understand why Narconon Vista Bay has higher success rates than traditional drug and alcohol treatment programs.

The Narconon treatment begins by ridding the addict’s body of all drug and alcohol residues. Months or years of abuse can cause a build up of these residues in the body, and even if the addict does not use drugs those residues can enter the blood stream and trigger physical cravings. Daily sauna treatments, exercise and vitamin supplements help to flush the residues from the system, allowing the addict to move onto the next phase of the Narconon holistic drug rehab treatment: cognitive therapy.

Individual and group therapy are a vital part of Narconon holistic drug rehab. Until an addict addresses the behavior and stresses that lead to the addictive lifestyle, he can not heal. Once the addict takes ownership of his mistakes, he then learns new skills that will help him lead a sober life. Shopping trips and hikes in the relaxed setting of small-town Placerville allow the addict to test those skills before returning home. Throughout this phase, the family can play an important part by joining the addict in therapy.

Even after the addict has successfully completed both physical detoxification and the multiple therapeutic steps, there is still work to be done. Counselors at Narconon Vista Bay create a personalized, graduate assurance program that keeps the client and his immediate family in touch with the facility for a full year after graduation. The professional staff at Narconon Vista Bay doesn’t want to see all of its – and the addict’s – hard work go to waste.
