Drug rehab and alcohol addiction treatment that really works

Although alcoholism, and more recently drug addiction, have been considered a "disease" for more than 50 years, there has been no study that proves conclusively that addiction is a disease.

Yet most drug and alcohol addiction treatment programs in or near Portland, Oregon will tell addicts that they have a disease and that will affect them for the rest of their lives.

This is not our philosophy. At Narconon Arrowhead’s drug rehab center, we have been able to demonstrate that drug and alcohol addiction can be overcome, permanently, and that former addicts can go on to lead healthy, happy and productive lives free from substance abuse after leaving our drug rehab facility.

Types of drug rehab programs include detoxification, outpatient counseling, short-term inpatient treatment (30-day program) and long-term residential treatment (longer than 60 days). Within these there are also medical models that use substitute drugs in the treatment process and there are drug-free programs that do not prescribe more drugs to addicts.
