The most common type of drug rehabilitation or treatment program today uses a traditional 12-step approach. The 12-steps in their original form can be very useful, but the treatments accompanying this philsophy have been changed to incorporate the use of harmful prescription drugs. Diagnosing someone with a disease and using more drugs to treat their symptoms doesn't allow them the ability to fully recover.
Another common method of drug rehab includes a longer-term religious basis. This is where prayer, scripture and hard work are often substituted for rehabilitation counseling to develop Christian-based habits. Faith-based programs such as this can be helpful in the right circumstances, but when someone is continually having physical cravings for drugs and they haven't been able to address those physical symptoms, the prayer and teachings have a much harder time taking effect.
While both of the programs listed above do work for some people and can be successful, our method of drug and alcohol rehabilitation addresses addiction on a physical and mental level - treating the problem holistically and without introducing more drugs to the equation.
