Big Mountain Pharmacy Launches a New Blog: Blogging the Drugs

One thing that has often been lacking from online Canadian pharmacies is information. Not only about the drugs on sale themselves, but also about illnesses and general news on the medical industry such as regulation and equipment.

That is what triggered Big Mountain Drugs to start their health information blog, which is now fully up and running on their website offering articles packed with information about common illnesses such as Alzheimer’s, erectile dysfunction (impotence) and acne. Not only that, they have also released articles giving useful information to help with particularly common issues. These include helping patients with poor eyesight by giving tips on how to identify medication safely, and giving family and friends of patients’ advice on how to tell the difference between dementia and depression.

Information like this is extremely valuable to patients, as they can learn more about the drugs that they are taking and the conditions that they are taking them for. The knowledge to patients increases safety as they can easily spot the symptoms of complex or potentially dangerous illnesses, and learn how to deal with the issues that come with many conditions. Blogging the Drugs from Big Mountain pharmacy, which can be found on their website, now lists many informative articles to help their customers. All of the information is free, and is written by medical professionals giving accurate and interesting information and facts.

One customer said: “Blogging the Drugs from Big Mountain pharmacy is extremely helpful and I’ve discovered a lot of new things about my illness that I didn’t know before, including information about the drugs that I am taking so that I can keep an eye out for side effects. It makes me feel much safer that I have more knowledge than I did before”.

Big Mountain Drugs commented “We wanted to add value to our customers by allowing them to make more informed decisions. Although they cannot buy most of the drugs without a prescription, it still gives them the opportunity to learn about the drugs that they are prescribed by their doctor so that they can speak with their doctor if they have any concerns. It also helps them to learn about their illnesses so that they can be aware of any issues such as symptoms of their conditions”.

One concern however, is that online Canadian pharmacies as of recent times, are no longer allowed to advertise on Google unless it is in their own country, which will mean that many people searching for information on drugs online will not be able to find the blog unless they live in Canada if they use Google to search for it.

You can join the blog on Facebook (bigmountaindrugs) and Twitter (bigmountaindrug), some of the most popular social networking sites so it is always very easy to connect and check out any new information that is issued by Big Mountain Drugs. They also post videos on Youtube and you can subscribe by RSS feed so that you get information in new articles as soon as they are posted online.

Many Drug Rehab Approaches, Holistic Drug Rehab Still Most Effective

The medical field is an ever-evolving field with new technologies and breakthroughs occurring at a rapid pace. Continual strides are being made within the addiction treatment field and time and again, research shows that holistic drug rehab is the most effective treatment for those suffering from various types of addiction.

One particular addiction treatment program has become the standard for drug rehabs worldwide. Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center began its quest for improved treatment methodologies over a decade ago. Since then, it has transformed the face of addiction treatment.

“From a purely logical standpoint holistic drug rehab makes the most sense,” begins a spokesperson for Mountainside. “Up until our pioneering research, the alcohol and drug rehab treatment field was utilizing standard addiction treatment modalities. Our hypothesis was pretty simplistic: employ evidence based treatment modalities and provide a variety of different proven modalities to help a person get well. We looked around at different areas in medicine to see the methods that were currently working and then began drawing from those fields to create a program that addresses the complete needs of an individual from the physical issues, to the emotional, social and mental health issues that a person may have. Our success rates have been phenomenal. We have been refining our program to what it is today: our trademarked Integrated Care Model. Although just recently trademarked, our empirical evidence for this treatment model is an evolution of a body of work that spans over a decade. And, we will continually review and further refine our treatment program in the future to insure that we are providing the most optimum addiction treatment options for an individual.”

Unitaids Pool for HIV/AIDS Pharmaceutical Patents Appears Flawed

Recently the International Policy Network (IPN), a nongovernmental educational organization focused on highlighting the role of free society institutions in social and economic development, released a report discussing Unitaid’s proposed pharmaceutical patent pool. Written by Alec van Gelder and Philip Stevens, this report examines the implications of creating a pharmaceutical patent pool for anti-retroviral medicines (ARVs) in order to improve treatments for HIV/AIDs.

The report examines the potential problems associated with this move, which would allow researchers to experiment on patented ARVs in order to create more effective “fixed dose combination” drugs (FDC) for subpopulations in Africa. Unitaid would distribute these new drugs on a non-profit basis, where royalties as determined by patent pool administrators would be paid to patent holders. The authors of the article point to several issues that could arise with this type of patent pool, including:

• Distribution barriers in Africa, where poor healthcare infrastructure and a shortage of trained personnel exists. These barriers could hinder the new
medications from reaching those that really need it.
• Uncertain need for a patent pool type of arrangement, when many companies already allow researchers to investigate patented material. The authors write, “Many companies have established programmes which give academic researchers free access to vast proprietary compound libraries.”
• Unclear incentive for patent holders to give up intellectual property rights to drugs, knowing that the royalties they could receive would be significantly less than what they are receiving now from the patent.

Stevens and van Gelder conclude that this type of patent pool needs a better focus before they would be able to garner support for it within the industry. If the patent pool was to become compulsory, “R&D, licensing production to existing and new FDCs along with access to medicines would be undermined and potentially crowded out of the marketplace altogether by an unwieldy and unworkable bureaucracy.” They add that this would be counter-productive to Unitaid’s efforts, and could slow access to medicines in the countries that most need them.

Narconon Vistabay – Drug Rehab Programs with the Highest Success Rates

When drug use and alcohol use interfere with family, work, and social activities, it’s time to seek treatment from a successful addiction recovery center. Drug and alcohol addiction are serious issues that need to be addressed with the help of professionals who can help the addict recover and live a productive life as a sober individual. Narconon is the addiction recovery program with the highest success rate, over other types of alcohol and drug addiction treatment program options. The Narconon approach uses holistic methods to detoxify the body of all the harmful toxins that alcohol and drugs introduced to it, and it replenishes vitamins and minerals that are key to good health.

Drug abuse comes in many forms, whether it is cocaine, marijuana, hallucinogens, crystal meth or even prescription medication. All cause damage to your liver, kidneys, brain, and lungs. The sooner an addiction is addressed, the less damage will be done and the more ill effects can be reversed. Even if the addict has been using drugs for 30 years, sobriety will help slow down if not stop the damage that has occurred from the alcohol and drugs that they put into their bodies. Narconon Vistabay is able to provide professional care for their clients throughout the recovery process. From detox to graduation, the counselors and staff will do what it takes to help an addict recover and feel good about leaving their rehabilitation ready to start a new life, without drugs and alcohol.

One past graduate has this to say about the Narconon program:“Freedom is a precious gift. All the technology we are learning here will help us live a free life. The program doesn’t work unless it is applied and followed in life. I value myself, my freedom, and my group. I already know that the program works and it has saved my life as I know it has for others.” -J.A. Narconon Graduate

Narconon Vista Bay is located in S. Lake Tahoe amongst the beauty of nature and has amenities that make it feel less like an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center and more like a retreat. For more than 30 years, the Narconon program has helped countless numbers of people worldwide successfully overcome their addictions to drugs and alcohol. By using a holistic approach to addiction treatment, addicts are able to overcome their addictions without becoming addicted to another substance.

Mountainside Cites That Heroin And Opiate Use Is On The Rise

The numbers of individuals entering inpatient drug rehab for heroin and opiate addiction continues to increase. In Afghanistan and Pakistan the opium (heroin) trade is tightly controlled by al Qaeda and the Taliban, and despite the war the efforts, the production of heroin and opium has dramatically increased – heroin is still dirt-cheap and readily purchased on the streets of Kabul and sold in short distance of military barracks. This phenomena has caused many analysts to be alarmed that our troops, reacting to the stress of war and ease of access of drugs, may develop drug habits like many of the soldiers in the Vietnam era.

The prevalence of cheap heroin has become a major issue in this country for teenagers who have begun experimenting with the drug as it is often cheaper and easier to buy than alcohol. Last year more than 46 people died from heroin overdoses in Nassau County, NY – this represents a 75 percent year over year increase. One of these individuals was Natalie Ciappa, a National Honor Society member at her high school on Long Island.

Recently, this past Wed, more than 1,000 parents gathered at a hosted forum in Smithtown, NY to voice their support and concern for the drug problem.

Directly correlated to the increase in heroin addiction has been the number of deaths by people using methadone. Many individuals who enter heroin rehab, also have tried methadone. A recent study published by the National Drug Intelligence Center (DIC indicates a 390% increase in deaths due to methadone since 1999. Increase in methadone deaths attributed to the drugs emerging popularity for use with chronic pain sufferers as well as increased diversion (stealing from legitimate sources and diverting to the street for illegal consumption).

The highest overdose rate was experienced among those between the ages of 15 – 24.

Opiate addiction or dependence which is recognized as a central nervous system disorder, can affect anyone from any walk of life. Opiate addiction is essentially what happens after someone intakes opiods such as Heroin, Oxycontin, Percocet and others for extended periods of time causing the brain to stop producing the vital chemical dopamine (the body’s natural response to pain as well as other physical activities) which in turn causes an uncontrollable urge for that person to have to ingest more of the drug they had been taking just to feel “normal”.

Opiate dependence while chemically the same as addiction more often occurs in people who have suffered from chronic or severe pain and have to be on this type of medication for an extended period of time. Normally to avoid any unpleasant effects the person’s physician will taper them off of the medication so the patient’s brain function has a chance to return to normal. Once the brain is actively producing dopamine and as long as the patient is no longer in pain, the medication is no longer medically needed.

Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center has been helping people recover from alcoholism for over 12 years. Located in Connecticut, just north of New York City, its national program continues to help people from all over the country.

Executive Rehab Promotes Physical And Psychological Healing

Cliffside Malibu, a prestigious drug rehab 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 achieve holistic recovery.

Drug addiction is both a physical and psychological disease. By the same token, drug rehab must promote both physical and psychological healing. The best drug rehab facilities are those which help clients get better in mind as well as in body, in substance as well as in spirit. In the end, there’s no other way to ensure the long-term success of the recovery process.

Those principles, in turn, are the bedrock of Cliffside Malibu’s holistic 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 comprehensive excellence will ever be acceptable.

“There are no partial victories in the fight against addiction,” said Cliffside Malibu Clinical Director Patricia Freeberry. “Real healing must be both physical and psychological in nature, which is why our exclusive drug rehab programs are explicitly designed to treat the whole patient. We believe that our long record of success proves the effectiveness of our approach.”

Unfortunately, that commitment to holistic healing is precisely what distinguishes Cliffside from its competitors.

It’s easy for a drug rehab center to pay lip service to the importance of holistic treatment. It’s harder, though, for that facility to live out the meaning of its words. The truth is that many of the most “exclusive” drug rehabs in Los Angeles deliver one-dimensional care to their clients. It should come as no surprise that those institutions routinely fall short in their efforts to promote lasting wellness.

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

Pet Owners Save a Trip to the Animal Clinic and Find Pet Meds Online

Pet owners find themselves as contented as their cats and dogs with more time in their afternoon as they save a trip to the vet. As more and more consumers turn to the online community to find what they need, pet lovers find all their petmeds needs on the web. No longer do they have to make an extra trip to the pet clinic or pet store to find Frontline, Heartgard, Sentinel or any other pet need because they can get it just as easily on the Internet, never leaving their house or the company of their pet. All pet medications are USDA/EPA approved and exactly what they’d expect to find in a vet’s office or pet store.

The Internet creates convenience for everyone, including owners of animals who may find it difficult to work their animal’s needs for pet meds in with their busy schedules. Why should pet owners have to travel to meet the health needs of their pets when the Internet provides every pet medication conveniently at the fingertips? Online pet stores are only as far away as the nearest computer. More and more pet owners realize that the convenience of online pet supply outlets can ease a schedule and provide more time in the day.

The health needs of pets can vary widely and get considerably expensive. With online petmeds, all forms of pet medicine and treatments are available in one location at prices that are considerably lower than a pet shop or vet clinic. The online store saves money by having less real estate and employee expenses to contend with. These savings can then be passed onto the pet owner through lower prices. Not only can pet lovers find everything they need for their pets easier, but the pet meds also tend to be less expensive.

Shipping costs have deterred some potential online shoppers, but many online stores get around this by offering reduced or free shipping. At Petmeds, for example, shipping on all orders over $39 is completely free, adding to the savings with reduced overhead.

About the Author:

Sam Sheppard is a long time pet owner and blogger who finds it hard to find time in his schedule to get all his pet meds for the animals he loves. With online petmeds, Sheppard finds more time not only for writing but for quality lap time for all his furry friends as well.

Narconon is a drug-free treatment method that consists of two main stages; detoxification and rehabilitation. Besides nutritional supplements, sauna sessions are an important part of the detoxification stage. Rehabilitation includes specific courses designed to increase communication skills, study skills, orientation to the environment, understanding of moral principles, and preparation for work.

With a success rate of 76%, the “Narconon Drug Rehab” is backed by a ‘Graduate Assurance Plan’. The plan promises graduates following approved discharge plans that relapse within six months of the program, will be re-admitted at no charge. “Narconon Prescription Drug Treatment” is available for a flat fee, and the duration is based on need, not insurance coverage.

Take Rehab Seriously Or Run The Risk Of Never Beating Addiction

Addiction is both a physical and psychological disease. Addiction treatment, then, must promote both physical and psychological healing. The only successful rehab facilities are those which help their clients get better in mind as well as in body. In the end, there’s no other route to meaningful and lasting wellness.


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 comprehensive care to individuals who seek it. At Sunset Malibu, the client always comes first.

“Every one of our clients comes to us with some sort of emotional problem,” said Sunset Malibu Program Director Dr. Georgina Smith. “It’s our job to ensure that that problem gets solved, in order to lay a solid foundation for the long-term recovery process. With everything from advanced dual-diagnosis techniques to intensive depression treatment, we make it our mission to help patients heal from the inside-out.”

Unfortunately, that passion for holistic healing is precisely what sets Sunset apart from its competitors.

Most treatment facilities pay lip service to the importance of holistic recovery. But very few of them live up to their own promises. The truth is that many of the most “exclusive” clinics in California only target the physical symptoms of addiction. More often than not, those facilities fail to help clients get better for good.

Under the circumstances, argues Dr. Smith, those shortcomings are inexcusable.

“Addiction ruins lives,” Dr. Smith said. “Addiction treatment can save them-but only if it’s administered with empathy and expertise. We stop at nothing to ensure that our clients receive the best possible support along the road to wellness. To do anything less would be to forsake our personal and professional obligations.”

Substance abuse is an increasingly prevalent problem in the United States and around the world. The good news here is that it doesn’t have to be a fatal one. Sunset Malibu has proven itself capable of helping clients rediscover the world as they used to know it, before addiction stripped them of their hope and joy and dignity. It’s hard to imagine that any service could ever possibly be more valuable than that one.

Drug Rehab Where You Are Surrounded By Luxury

Affluent addiction victims typically seek the services of elegant private treatment facilities. Unfortunately, that search is often impeded by a lack of information from and about the luxury rehab industry.

That’s about 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 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.

For drug rehab patients and their families, that sort of enlightenment can often make all the difference in the world.

Rehab is always an arduous process. To be successful, patients need intimate and comprehensive support at every step on the road to wellness. The best treatment clinics, then, are invariably those which most effectively meet the needs of their individual clients. In the end, anything less than the most personalized care is and can only be a recipe for failure.

But those principles aren’t always put into practice.

It’s one thing for a rehab center to pay lip service to the importance of luxurious accommodations. It’s quite another for that facility to make a deep and abiding commitment to the physical comfort of its clients. The unfortunate truth is that many of the most well-known clinics in Los Angeles fall short of the promises they make in their advertising brochures. Unsurprisingly, those institutions rarely produce meaningful or lasting recovery.

Given the stakes in the fight against addiction, those sorts of failures can lead to disaster.

Refreshing Take On Recovery Methods At Cliffside Malibu

Cliffside Malibu, a prestigious alcohol treatment facility on the Malibu coast, has long been a leading light in the California rehab community. Now, the center is pleased to announce its renewed commitment to providing clients with superlative luxury on the road to recovery.

Alcohol treatment is always difficult. Those patients who complete the process successfully are invariably the ones who feel most comfortable in their healing environments, and most supported in their recovery efforts. The best alcohol treatment clinics, then, are those which most effectively meet the physical and psychological needs of their clients. In the end, there’s simply no substitute for a private and luxurious rehabilitation facility.

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

From gourmet meals to personal spa services, we stop at nothing in order to fulfill our obligations.”

It’s easy for an alcohol treatment center to pay lip service to the importance of luxury and elegance. It’s hard, though, for that center to live up to its own standards.

In fact, overdose rates for people addicted to prescription medication are now higher than those associated with the abuse of heroin and cocaine.

Although there has been a lot of media coverage in recent years surrounding celebrity deaths caused by drug overdoses, the problem is more far-reaching, affecting people from all types of backgrounds across the country.

The Office of National Drug Control Policy at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that there are approximately 20,000 deaths a year related to drugs in the United States – the leading cause of fatal overdoses being drugs prescribed by a physician.

Connecting addicts and their families with the help they need – be it Alcohol Treatment or treatment for drug addiction – is the most important step in healing the thousands of people suffering with an addiction problem. In many cases it can be difficult or almost impossible for people to find the right treatment program.

This is why the service provided by Treatment-Centers.net is an effective solution for finding a good program, and linking treatment facilities in need of an affordable online marketing campaign with effective and innovative advertising solutions.

The website specializes in helping addiction treatment organizations market their programs and increase visibility on the Internet. The site provides Internet marketing consulting in addition to advertising products and services on the site’s treatment directory.

Luxury Alcohol Rehabs Are Not All Equal

Cliffside Malibu, an elegant alcohol rehab 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 win the fight against alcoholism under their own power.

Alcohol recovery is and must be a personal process. The most successful alcohol rehab programs are those driven by the active efforts of alcohol rehab patients, and the most successful alcohol rehabs are those which empower their clients. In the end, there’s no better way to cultivate meaningful and lasting sobriety.

Those principles, in turn, comprise the core of Cliffside Malibu’s alcohol rehab 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 most empowering alcohol rehab on the planet to those individuals who need it. At Cliffside Malibu, nothing less than excellence will ever be acceptable.

“Alcohol rehab can’t be a passive experience,” said Cliffside Malibu Clinical Director Patricia Freeberry. “Our clients have to play an active role in their own recoveries, which is why our alcohol rehab programs are specially designed to promote personal strength and self-esteem. We believe that our record of success proves the soundness of our methods.”

Cliffside’s competitors, meanwhile, can hardly speak as glowingly about their own treatment efforts.

It’s easy for an alcohol rehab facility to talk about empowering its clients. It’s harder for that facility to put its principles into practice. The truth is that many of the most high-priced alcohol rehab clinics in Los Angeles treat their residents like babies, by stripping them of control and command during the healing process. More often than not, those institutions fall short of the promises they make in their advertising brochures. According to Cliffside administrators, that sort of failure is unacceptable.

Take The Stress Out Of Finding The Right Drug Addiction Treatment Center

Addiction treatments are only as successful as the treatment centers that administer them. That sounds obvious, but the truth is that too many prospective rehab patients assume that every facility must be more or less the same. This simply isn’t the case. In fact, only those rehab centers which properly recognize and cater to their clients’ needs can ever be expected to affect meaningful long-term healing.

The practical implication here is that you have to do your research before making a rehabilitation decision. It isn’t enough to simply pick a treatment center based on price or convenience; if you’re going to get better, it’s going to be because you find a place that can meet each and every one of your unique individual needs. Given the stakes in the fight against drug addiction, it’s hard to imagine how you could ever settle for any sort of inferior option.

Addictions-Treatments.com is a site devoted to finding you the best addiction treatment center possible. If you’d like more information on addiction recovery programs, please call 1-877-771-6160, visit our website at http://www.addictions-treatments.com/, or contact us at admissions@addictions-treatments.com.

Expert Services Find You The Best Drug Rehab Center Possible

Affluent addiction victims routinely seek treatment from rehab facilities that can help them get sober without compromising their luxurious living standards. Unfortunately, that search is often impeded by a lack of transparency in the luxury rehab industry.

Now, though, prospective rehab patients have a trusted source on the inside.

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 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.

For drug abuse victims and their families, that sort of insight can literally make a world of difference.

Rehab is always an arduous process. To complete it successfully, patients need to feel wholly supported in their efforts, and wholly comfortable in their environments. The logical corollary, of course, is that the best rehab facilities are those which best meet the individual needs of their individual clients. In the end, there’s no other way to achieve meaningful and lasting recovery.

The bad news, though, is that those principles aren’t always put into practice.

It’s one thing for a drug rehab center to say that it cares about its clients. It’s quite another thing for that facility to live out the meaning of its marketing slogans. The unfortunate truth is that many of the most “exclusive” treatment centers in Los Angeles fall far short of their own standards of service. As should be obvious, those centers are woefully ineffective in helping their residents heal.

LuxuryDrugRehab.com is a referral service dedicated to connecting callers with the right alcohol or drug rehab centers. To learn more about the service, please call 1-888-488-0088, or visit the LuxuryDrugRehab.com. Online visitors will find testimonials, staff profiles, and other valuable information about drug rehab facilities and the rehabilitation experience.

Friends, Parents And Other Relatives Of Drug Addicts And Alcoholics Are Most Likely To Be The People Who First Contact A Drug Rehab

Narconon, a Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facility with a treatment center near Watsonville, CA, receives thousands of calls per year. A remarkably large percentage of those calls come from people who are desperate to get their loved ones off drugs.

“Frequently, the last person to admit they have a problem is the addict,” Mike Dipalma, CCDC, RASi at Narconon, said. “It usually takes the influence of an intervention, or even just the concern of a family member, to initiate the rehab process.”

DiPalma said that the caring telephone counselors at Narconon are very good at putting callers at ease.

“We know that rehab is not a pleasant experience for anybody,” DiPalma said. “We’re trying to save somebody’s life here. So we’re quick to analyze that situation and help to get the addict into treatment.”

DiPalma added that callers to Narconon are usually surprised by both the program’s unique approach to rehab, as well as the established effectiveness of Narconon treatment.

Since its founding in Arizona State Prison in the 1960s, Narconon has promoted a non-drug, educational approach to rehab. When a person is admitted into Narconon, he does not become a patient. He becomes a student.

“Narconon is all about learning,” Dipalma said. “It’s about learning how you got to be an addict in the first place, how to keep from being an addict in the future, and most importantly, how to break your habit now and forever, without the use of ‘replacement drugs’ or 12-step programs.”

Indeed, it’s these programs that frequently defeat the entire purpose of rehab. DiPalma said that 12-step programs, for example, force the addict to admit that they’re weak and will never truly overcome their problem. Drug replacement methods, such as methadone treatment for heroin addicts, frequently just create another addiction for the addict to overcome.

“At Narconon, we believe you can overcome your addiction for good. You can live without drugs when you understand why you started taking them in the first place,” Dipalma said.

The Narconon program was established to help people suffering from substance dependencies, with the goal of freeing them and their families from the devastation of drug or alcohol abuse. Narconon of Northern California opened its drug and alcohol rehabilitation program in 1992, in Bonny Doon, California. Launched by “word of mouth” publicity, ongoing success resulted in the relocation of the residential treatment program to a larger campus in Santa Cruz, CA. The Narconon treatment facility of Northern California program now graduates 150 clients annually. It includes a center in Placerville and a new center in South Lake Tahoe, CA.
