Therapeutic benefits from holistic drug rehab proves effective

Physical and therapeutic benefits from drug rehab

Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center has been a long-time pioneer and advocate of alternative drug addiction treatment methods. Through years of effective treatment, they have developed one of the most duplicated treatment plans within the addiction treatment field. Utilizing holistic methods such as the use of Qigong and Yoga in conjunction with other accepted treatment methods, they have created an evidence-based holistic drug addiction treatment model that has become the model for drug rehabs worldwide.

These various alternative methods have been used for hundreds of years for maintaining healthy and peaceful lifestyles as well as to help fight illnesses and speed up recovery times in individuals who do not suffer from a drug or alcohol addiction. Mountainside felt that it was a worthy option to look into for those struggling with drug abuse.

“Long standing research has shown that extensive drug and alcohol abuse builds within one’s system, creating a toxic effect,” begins a spokesperson for Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center. “Certain drugs or by-products of drugs or alcohol, such as TCH, can lodge in tissues and cells for years. The use of methods, like Qigong, stimulates the lymph system, speeding up the detoxification process which aids in removing the toxic material from the bloodstream. Leaving these toxins within the system, we believe, is one of the reasons an addicted individual remains in a state of unrest and agitation. By speeding up toxin release through holistic drug rehab, we have been able to help individuals become more at peace with themselves, which allows them to focus on their recovery, fully.”

For more than 12 years, Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center has led the way in offering an individualized alcohol and drug addiction treatment program.

Mountainside’s treatment team is committed to providing quality, compassionate care to each individual in a tranquil, peaceful environment conducive to optimal recovery. The program won national attention and resulted in Mountainside being invited to Washington to meet with the White House Drug Czar, John P. Walters, who wanted to learn more about the innovative program offered at Mountainside.

In addition to its licensed and certified counselors and social workers, Mountainside provides medical services through an on-staff Nurse Practitioner and a Registered Nurse with specializations in drug addiction and alcohol treatment. Psychiatric services are available when needed.
