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.

A Natural Drug Treatment Environment Promotes The Most Effective Healing

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 cutting-edge care in an ideal healing environment.

Rehab doesn’t happen in a vacuum. On the contrary, every drug treatment center is affected by its geographical location. The best treatment facilities are almost invariably those situated in the most hospitable physical surroundings. In the end, there’s simply no substitute for the pristine seclusion of the Malibu coast.

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’s personal comfort always comes first.

“Rehab is a grueling process,” said Sunset Malibu Program Director Dr. Georgina Smith. “To complete it successfully, patients need to feel wholly at ease in their healing environment. Our secluded private estate is the perfect place to achieve that sort of emotional and spiritual peace.”

Unfortunately, Sunset’s unique ambiance can’t be replicated by its competitors in other parts of the country.

Most drug treatment centers really do try to help their clients. But every clinic is limited by its physical location. The fact of the matter is that a drug treatment center in New York can’t possibly offer clients the same experience that they would enjoy at a drug treatment center in Malibu. The result, of course, is that New York drug treatment facilities can’t be trusted to promote meaningful and lasting wellness.

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

Narconon, Drug-Free, Non-Profit, Drug Rehab Treatment

Narconon Vista Bay goes to the Fair! The Monterey County Fair is one of the largest in the state of California, with an average of 65,000 visitors. Taking advantage of that opportunity, Narconon Northern california had a booth in the middle of the action. The goal was to provide free drug education for children and also mingle with members of the community.

Over the five days of the fair, Narconon drug education material was placed in the hands of over 4000 children. While at the booth, kids enjoyed a prize wheel and gifts, as parents and community members appreciated the positive Narconon approach to drug prevention and education. The informative material offered was enjoyed by all.

Narconon programs assist schools across the country in meeting several criteria for the United States Department of Education, Title IV (Safe & Drug Free School) funds. Trends of youth substance abuse are tracked and monitored, and program presentations and training is modified to meet the ever changing needs of society. Prevention is the goal of drug education.

Perhaps the most unique concept behind Narconon Prescription Drug Addiction Treatment is that it is completely drug-free. The treatment has at least a 70% success rate. It is based on techniques developed by L. Ron Hubbard, an author and philosopher. Each single component or phase of the treatment is designed to increase the abilities of the client.

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.

LuxuryDrugRehab.com is a referral service dedicated to connecting callers with the right drug rehab programs or alcohol rehab center. To learn more about the service, please call 1-888-488-0088, or visit the LuxuryDrugRehab.com Web site at www.luxurydrugrehab.com.

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.

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 trying process,” said Cliffside Malibu Clinical Director Patricia Freeberry. “As an alcohol treatment clinic, it’s our job to ensure that our clients have everything they need to rise to the occasion. 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. The truth is that many so-called “luxury” alcohol treatment clinics in California fall far short of the facades they present in their advertising brochures. Unsurprisingly, these institutions rarely help clients achieve meaningful or lasting wellness.

Treatment-Centers.net – Free Directory of Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers

Free services offered by websites such as Treatment-Centers.net are becoming more and more useful as a growing number of people struggle with an addiction problem. 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.

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.

Sports Are An Effective Drug Deterrent, Study Says

A recent Women’s Sport Foundation study shows people who participate in sports are less likely to engage in illicit drug use, a conclusion shared by Narconon.

A well known addiction treatment organization, Narconon offers a variety of athletic activities as a key component of the treatment programs at addiction rehab centers it operates. The organization also promotes sports and sponsors sporting events as a way of offering communities an alternative to drug use, while sending a message about drug-free, healthy activities. The core concept is that participating in sports not only engages the participants, promoting a healthy lifestyle for children and adults, but athletic competition is also much more enjoyable and rewarding than drug use. The Women’s Sport Foundation study validates this position with its finding that the incidence of drug use decreases for people who are actively involved in sports.

Narconon President Clark Carr points out: “Our drug educators and community volunteers have been endlessly creative in raising public awareness, understanding, and commitment.” Part of that creativity has been expressed through hosting or organizing a wide range of sporting events, among them: golf tournaments, celebrity softball games, international marathons, hockey games featuring NHL alumni, bicycle tours and European football matches. Besides the health benefits gained by those participating in athletic endeavors, Narconon staff and volunteers are on hand at these events to provide educational drug awareness material and promote the advantages of a drug-free lifestyle. A community that has fun, engaging and competitive recreational sports options available for youth and adults alike, has accessible alternatives that can make the difference between making a healthy choice, or turning to drugs out of boredom.

Even when not directly hosting the event, Narconon participation or sponsorship is evident in many other organized sports activities throughout the world, including Narconon sponsored racing cars, community soccer teams throughout Europe and the Narconon Miracles hockey team. Besides its involvement in sporting events, Narconon also partners with community organizations and government agencies to provide drug education programs to thousands of school children across the United States and throughout the world.

Rehab With Renewed Efforts In Holistic Healing

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 pursuit of sustainable holistic healing.

Addiction is never strictly a physical disease. On the contrary, substance abuse always entails psychological dependency, which makes it especially important that substance abuse treatment promote psychological wellness. In the end, there’s simply no other way to guarantee the long-term success of the rehabilitation 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 rehab 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 comprehensive care to individuals who seek it. At Sunset Malibu, the client-the whole client-always comes first.

“There are no partial victories in the fight against addiction,” said Sunset Malibu Program Director Dr. Georgina Smith. “Real healing has to occur in mind as well as in body, in spirit as well as in substance. That’s why we use advanced dual-diagnosis techniques to assess the psychiatric health of every new resident. It’s also why our personally-tailored treatment programs have such a robust rate of success.”

Sunset’s competitors, meanwhile, can hardly make the same claims about their own treatment efforts.

Most rehab facilities acknowledge the importance of holistic treatment. But very few of them put their own principles into practice. In fact, many of the most “exclusive” clinics in Los Angeles target the physical symptoms of the disease while virtually ignoring its psychological roots. This is an enormous mistake-and one that can have devastating consequences for patients and their families.

There are many rehabs to choose from and Sunset Malibu is the leading luxury drug and alcohol treatment center located in Malibu, California. For further details about Sunset’s treatment strategies, accommodations, or other general facts about drug rehabs, please call 1-800-332-9202 or visit our Web site at http://www.drugrehabsunsetmalibu.com/.

Treatment Of Eating Disorders By Leading Professionals

Sunset Malibu, an elite treatment clinic 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 anorexia and bulimia.

An eating disorder exists beyond the individual will of its victim. No one ever chooses to be sick, and no one can ever simply decide to get better. The practical implication, of course, is that eating disorder recovery can only occur under the auspices of a professional eating disorders treatment center. In the end, there’s simply no better environment in which to pursue sustainable healing.

Those considerations, in turn, are at the heart of Sunset Malibu’s eating disorder 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.

“We exist only and entirely to meet the needs of our residents,” said Sunset Malibu Program Director Dr. Georgina Smith. “To be successful, eating disorder treatment has to be specially tailored on a patient-by-patient basis. That’s precisely what we do-and precisely why our clients enjoy such a robust rate of success.”

Unfortunately, that emphasis on the individual is also precisely what sets Sunset apart from its competitors.

Many addiction treatment facilities offer eating disorder therapy to their clients. But only a handful of them devote sufficient resources to the eating disorder recovery process. Indeed, many of the most well-known clinics in California fall far short of the promises they make in their online advertising brochures. As should go without saying, those institutions routinely fail to effect any sort of meaningful or lasting healing.

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

Sunset Malibu is a luxury eating disorder treatment center located in Malibu, California.
