Drug Treatment Center Opens its Doors to Patients Seeking Alternative Addiction Treatment Methods

Traditional addiction treatment and drug rehabilitation programs have made strides in methodology for treating many types of addiction. Now Ambrosia, one of the freshest drug rehab facilities on the block, takes addiction treatment to a new level by incorporating chronic pain management to help those kick painkillers for good. As drug rehab centers struggle to get the word out about their programs, Ambrosia Treatment Center has found a comfortable niche in helping those most in need of pain management, break addiction to some of the hardest and most addictive prescription drugs on the market.

From Ultram to Oxyconton, the staff at Ambrosia takes a broad approach to treating addiction. The new program not only uses traditional 12-step drug rehabilitation methods but also teaches pain management using alternative holistic addiction treatment methodologies. This innovative new method is hoped to have profound effects.

Patients suffering from chronic pain and chemical dependency often find the path to recovery difficult. They have either had surgery or have tried a multitude of chiropractic interventions. Usually these treatments are combined with various pain medications such as vicodin, percocet, or stronger narcotics such as
oxycontin. While these medications offer temporary pain relief they also are highly addictive, causing the patient to resort to taking more than the prescribed amount. Their usual dosage is no longer effective as their body builds up a tolerance. This sometimes leads to negative behaviors such as “ doctor” shopping, or writing fraudulent prescriptions. In some cases, patients’ seek out illicit street drugs leading to even greater addictions and even sometimes overdose or death. Chronic pain and the powerful medications used to treat it are the leading cause of relapse in the recovery process.

Ambrosia Treatment Center breaks the cycle of addiction by addressing the problem of pain. To find out more information about Ambrosia’s
