Alcoholics find best course of treament in individualized treatment program

It’s often said there are many paths to the end result. While that may be true for many circumstances, there’s often one path that is the most optimal.

Alcoholism treatment has often been accomplished in a variety of ways, including methods such as shock treatment. However, individualized treatment has been shown to be the most effective.

“Generally speaking, the most effective course of action within any field is one that is specific to an individual,” begins a spokesperson for Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center. “And, over a decade of research and evidence-based practices show us that it is no different within the addiction treatment field. At Mountainside, we hold to the philosophy of approaching each person as an individual, instead of being just a part of the whole addicted individual. Meditation, physical activity, individual counseling, group counseling, acupuncture and Yoga are just some of the treatment modalities that we utilize in our addiction treatment programs. We make certain that we understand the needs of the individual, the totality of their addictions, including past attempts at becoming sober, and we put together a plan for that person that is as unique as they are as individuals. This approach to drug rehab has proven to be the most effective in terms of long-term sobriety success rates for our clients.”

Waters, for an in-depth meeting on what makes its program so successful.
