Synergy Treatment Opens State of the Art Alcohol Detox Facility
Using NTR
DANA POINT, CALIFORNIA, December 19, 2007 -- SYNERGY is the only drug and alcohol treatment center in the world
to combine residential treatment with cutting-edge NeuroTransmitter Restoration (NTR) technology.
NTR uses naturally occurring amino acids and minerals to intravenously saturate the body with
nutrients during initial detoxification. This causes the body's cells to shift into repair mode,
speeding the physical recovery process up to 10-days instead of the weeks, months and even years
it can take to repair damage caused by drugs and alcohol.
There is no cure for addiction, only remission. Prior to the restoration therapy of NTR, the most widely used program to address addiction was the 12-step model that addresses emotional and spiritual components. Yet addiction is also a physical disease. Adding the NTR therapy at the beginning of a residential treatment program improves the likelihood of long-term success in recovery. NTR heals the addicted brain at the cellular and molecular level.
In the brain, all drugs resemble neurotransmitters by attaching to cell receptor sites. Over time, the body adapts to the presence of drugs or alcohol and the brain's receptors change to accommodate these chemicals. When the chemicals are suddenly removed, the body experiences withdrawal symptoms. These symptoms can be painful and even dangerous, resulting in irregular heartbeat, seizures and even stroke.
The NTR solution of naturally occurring amino acids and minerals coats these cell receptor sites like a cool, wet blanket. This revolutionary process is an all-natural approach that offers unsurpassed comfort during the detox phase. Withdrawal symptoms are substantially reduced and mental clarity is restored within days instead of weeks. Cravings are reduced and even eliminated. Studies involving 15,000 clients of NTR show an unprecedented success rate of 80% a year after NTR therapy.
Traditional detox methods at residential treatment centers include the use of mild or non-narcotic prescription medication to ease the body through the painful withdrawal process that generally lasts 3 to 7 days. Restoration of mental clarity takes much longer. This substantially reduces the amount of effective time for psychological treatment in a 30-day residential program. "With traditional detox, it can take weeks for the mind to be clear enough to absorb the information we present," says Dennis Larkin, founder and CEO of Synergy Treatment. "By that time, they're halfway through the program."
NTR is not a cure-all but rather a jump-start into recovery. Synergy clients will relax in a comfortable, residential home with 24-hour care, nutritious meals, cable and high-speed Internet access while the amino acids are delivered intravenously. Within days, alertness generally returns. The Synergy treatment team initially comes to the client to begin the physiological phase of recovery, including one-on-one counseling, group processing and presentation of education materials. This schedule continues until the time when physical stability allows the client to join the Wellness Center activities.
Synergy offers a multi-discipline approach of mind, body and spirit renewal. All three elements of the disease of addiction must be addressed for long-term success in recovery. Synergy Treatment blends the cutting-edge technology of NTR therapy, the finest clinical and medical care available, and the great holistic healing traditions of the East, including massage, acupuncture and meditation. It is the only drug and alcohol treatment center in the world to offer this revolutionary treatment program. "Synergy is an exciting venture, the first of its kind," says Larkin. "We're thrilled to be able to offer this exclusive recovery component that adds another layer of support for our clients."
