Addiction Detoxification

 


Fees for Detox have been discounted from $5,000 to $2,500 for up to 5 days. Our 10 day program is $4,500 and discounted from $9,000.

You will be residing in a safe, comfortable and nurturing environment while receiving care both medically and naturopathic treatment throughout your stay. We pride ourselves on providing you with an addiction detoxification recovery program in a home like setting. Your personalized addiction detoxification program will be determined and monitored by our key Medical Doctor. In addition, you will be in the hands of our highly experienced Naturopathic Doctor, professional staff members who will be watching over you 24-hours per day.

The River Source addiction detoxification is typically a 3-10-day process. We are unique because we go above and beyond other addiction detoxification programs. With our unique integrative approach using both medical and naturopathic treatments your detox pain will be minimal. Most programs offer their patients staff minimal medical treatment and supervision during the initial withdrawal process. Our addiction detoxification program not only offers ongoing supervision, but also the expertise of our Licensed Physician and Licensed Therapist who specialize in addictive medicine.

The Licensed Doctors supports our patients by determining and prescribing the most medically comfortable addiction detoxification protocol. An example of  our unique protocol for Opiates is for the first 12 to 24 hours benzos such as Klonopin / Klanazapan; muscle relaxers (parafonforte pyschobenxaprene or soma; for nausea phenegren or alternative; for sleep trazadone or anatryptalene; after 12 to 24 hours; Suboxone for 3-5 days, homepthaic remedies, nutritional iv (high magnesium, high b’s and c’s’ complex b 5, 6, and 12’s, calcium, and zinc etc) and oral vitamin therapy, dry sauna, acupuncture, Physical Manipulation (Back Adjustment), massage therapy, b-12 shots, meditation, light exercise, counseling 1 on 1 and group therapy to help with aftercare plan. By the end of the detox you will not be on any of the drugs. Yes it really works! See the article by Dr. David Arneson and Dr. Liz Kim on how this works “link to articles” or go to in the news / archives.

Simultaneously our substance abuse detox offers inpatient treatment, medical supervision (under the care of a naturopathic physician and medical doctor), nutritional iv therapy. We also provide individual counseling/life coaching, group therapy. Our Sauna Detox - helps to get the “bad stuff” out of your body and the nutritional IV therapy puts the “good stuff” back into your body. That’s why our combination of Sauna Detox and Nutritional IV Therapy is a winning combination that makes sense and works. The River Source is a holistic substance abuse treatment program which simply means we focus on all aspects of recovery - mind, body and spirit. The therapist supports our patient by determining any underlying psychiatric / psychological factors that contribute to the patient’s addiction (ex. Dual Diagnosis). This simply doesn’t happen in most drug treatment programs, particularly at fees as reasonable as ours.

Finally, each patient in our addiction detoxification is under the direct supervision of a Doctor and Counselor who have Professional Certification in Addiction Counseling. Upon completion of Detox, the Drug Treatment Team presents the patient with options that will help to insure ongoing recovery.

· Every patient has a different medical and dependency history, and we treat them as individuals with specific needs. The River Source Method sets the standard by which other painkiller addiction treatments are measured. We are committed to changing the way the world views drug addiction. It is no longer a hidden and shameful disease of the stereotypical "drug addict," but rather a medical disease caused by a legitimate chemical imbalance. Different doctors in the US have tried this procedure in surgery centers or even offices in order to save on costs. Consequently safety standards are saved as well, compromising results and well being of patients.

New Treatment process by the River Soruce: Constitutional Hydrotherapy

Constitutional hydrotherapy is a special technique in which alternating hot and cold compresses are applied to the torso and abdomen which greatly improves recovery from various illnesses, both acute and chronic by stimulating our vis medicatrix naturae, our own body’s natural ability to heal itself.

During the treatment the patient lies comfortably on a soft table while hot towels are applied over the upper torso to warm the body. Once the body is warm, a single cold towel is applied in exchange for the hot one. This process occurs twice: once on the front of the body, and again, on the back.

The hot compress causes local vasodilation (widening of the blood vessels), causing blood to be drawn away from the core and to rise toward the blood vessels closer to the skin. Then, the alternating cold compress causes vasoconstriction (narrowing of the blood vessels) which drives the blood back into the core of our body. In addition, the cold compress (also called a warming compress) is kept on the torso for 10 minutes, allowing body to warm it. This process increases circulation and immune function. Some sources state that this warming process increases white blood cell production and lymph flow throughout the body. This increase in circulation is very beneficial for detoxification and excretion of toxins from the body, and increasing tone of the vessels.

At the River Source Treatment Center, we add another dimension to the traditional constitutional hydrotherapy to enhance its benefits. Hydrotherapy researchers have shown that an increase in blood flow is delivered to the underlying organs in response to stimulation of the skin above it. For this reason, electrodes from a sine wave machine are applied to the skin above the adrenal glands and abdomen to deliver a mild, soothing current to those organs. Stimulating the adrenals and intestines increase the body’s ability to recover from stresses at an optimal rate. The adrenal support is vital for our clients because prolonged use and abuse of pharmaceutical and illicit substances have been known to decrease the function of this crucial gland, responsible for the direct production of vital hormones in our body, and linked to our brain’s signaling pathways (via the Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis). Long term use of Opiates and other substances have also been known to decrease immune function, especially by disrupting the intestinal flora and its tissue: the Gut Associated Lymphoid Tissue (GALT) and Mucosa Associated Lymphoid Tissue (MALT), which account for 70% of our body’s immune system. Enhancing the function of the GALT and MALT would allow the body to protect itself from foreign pathogens so that it may divert more of its energy to healing and rebuilding the body during their stay at the River Source.

Patients who receive Constitutional Hydrotherapy report improved sleep, increased vitality, decreased recovery time from colds and flus, and an overall peaceful and serene detoxifying experience. As with all therapies, consult your Naturopathic Physician before receiving constitutional hydrotherapy and receive all treatments under a physician’s supervision for your safety.
