What Does “Drug-Free” Mean?
We view the center as “drug-free” in its focus. We use functional medicine in all of our programs. Functional medicine is a combination of many modalities of effective treatments. For example, nutrient therapy, exercise, and many others are combined in the programming of each client’s journey back to natural mental health.
However, this does not mean that drugs don’t sometimes have a place in treatment. For instance, there are some cases where the doctor will help the client gently and safely wean off one or more medications. However, there are cases where medical oversight may only recommend dosages be lowered as much as is possible.
In some cases, it is not possible nor recommended to taper down to zero. As always, patient safety is at the forefront and each individual is, of course, highly unique.
Are Labeling and Medicating Effective?
Perhaps you or a loved one has been seeking help with mental health issues such as depression, insomnia, anxiety, PTSD, schizophrenia, bipolar, addiction, or other distressing, debilitating conditions. But, you may share a concern that finding the “right” label or taking the “right” medications may not prove effective and may even present side effects and unintentional medication dependency.
Or, perhaps medications were already tried but proved unsuccessful. And, perhaps you have decided to begin a different approach. Perhaps you were given a label or multiple labels to try and describe your unique symptoms. Possibly, all of the above have occurred but did not help straighten out the unwanted conditions. We are here to help all of the above situations.
Drug-Free Mental Health Treatment is Rising in Popularity
Drug-free mental health treatments deliver results without the liability of drug dependency. They also avoid the burden of drug-induced side effects. Drug side effects can greatly burden a person on top of their original symptoms.
Clients comfortably relax within the safe “container” of a residential inpatient center. The center is staffed by over 50 medically trained doctors, holistic psychiatrists, nurses, and other dedicated caregivers. In a compassionate and professional atmosphere, support, exact treatments, and testing can accelerate results at maximum rates with absolute minimum discomfort.
What is Meant by Drug-Free Mental Health Treatment?
Compared to more traditional modes of treatment, drug-free mental health centers like ours can deliver authentic help. Such assistance is given in a caring and comfort-based environment. Many evidence-based treatments are provided. A small sampling of these includes orthomolecular medicine, therapeutic sauna, corrective diet, neurochemistry rebalancing, stress management, the removal of the neurotoxic burden from the body, and learning relaxation techniques.
Counseling of various forms is given for personal enlightenment, addiction relief, stress reduction, spiritual growth, music and art therapy, and many other personal aims. Equine therapy is a highly popular feature of our program. Testing is used to zero in on causative factors so that such can be addressed and removed or corrected. Our practitioners use these techniques to help clients at the center on a daily basis,
Nonetheless, the center does acknowledge that drugs do help in certain circumstances, and can be prescribed where needed or recommended. But unlike traditional psychiatric treatment, simply medicating the person is not the preferred or automatic strategy for “getting better” or for long-term results.
It has taken decades, but we, as a society, are becoming less and less enchanted with psychiatric drugging as a first or best choice for treatment. We have shown there are other, better choices.
For these reasons, and because the results show dramatic therapeutic value, drug-free mental health treatment is gaining great popularity.
