"In the 21st century, treatment of mental health issues [alcoholism, depression, anxiety, drug addiction, etc.] will focus on physical, holistic healing through biochemical restoration, repair, and balance."
Physical Restoration For
Alcoholics & Drug Addicts
Most who stop drinking/drugs still experience: CRAVINGS, DEPRESSION, ANXIETY, MOOD SWINGS, and other alcohol/drug induced symptoms that play havoc with sobriety.
Time Heals... or Does It?
Without the buffer of alcohol or drugs to reduce anxiousness and disguise
depression, you feel the full brunt of brain and nervous system changes
that your drinking/drug use has caused. With no physical repair, feeling
good is not just around the corner. These symptoms linger
for years according to a recent Johns Hopkins University study of 312 abstinent
alcoholics. Over a ten year period
they found the following ongoing symptoms:
- Depression
- Hostility
- Anxiety
- Paranoia Psychosis
- Phobic Anxiety
- Inadequate
- Inferior Feelings
Researchers concluded the typical recovering person experiences
many of these symptoms for years. Their study shows a painfully slow reduction
in symptom intensity with levels dropping slowly over a long period of
time.

Alcohol & Drugs can Assault Sanity
Suicide is so prevalent among treated alcoholics that one in four deaths
of these alcoholics are from suicide, usually occurring within the first
year after treatment.
Alcoholism assaults sanity by depleting key antidepressant chemicals in
the brain. Counseling won't correct such damage. Physical intervention
is needed to resupply the brain's natural chemicals and lift depression.

PSYCHIATRY, 41 (1984): pp 888-891
Alcoholics, Recovering or Not, Lose many
Years of Their Life Span
Treated alcoholics have almost the same mortality rate as drinking alcoholics..about
three times higher than the general population. Degenerative diseases set
in motion by heavy alcoholic/drug use, are not halted by counseling. Biochemical
intervention and repair must take place.

A New Successful Solution
For the past ten years Health Recovery Center has pioneered a successful
model of primary treatment based on biochemical repair. Our published research
shows the dramatic drop in client symptoms after six weeks. Of these clients,
74% were sober and stable at follow up one to three years later. Much of
this success is the result of physical repair for a PHYSICAL DEGENERATIVE
DISEASE
Program Provisions
An intensive six weeks includes:
- Medical assessment, detoxification and treatment
- Laboratory testing
- Individual sessions of biochemical repair and therapy
- Replacement of missing essential elements (Natural chemicals, not drugs will be the preferred choice)
- Group support and lectures
- 25 weeks of aftercare support
