Narconon Arrowhead drug rehab program

Many drug rehab and alcohol addiction treatment programs in Newport, Rhode Island tell addicts that they have a disease and that it will affect them for the rest of their life.

It has been more than 50 years since alcoholism was classified as a disease by the medical pundits of the time. This idea has persisted through the decades, and more recently drug addiction was added to the "disease" theory.

However, these are just theories. Not a single study has been able to prove that addiction is an actual disease.

The Narconon Arrowhead drug rehab program does not subscribe to the disease theory of addiction. This is not our philosophy. The Narconon Arrowhead drug rehab program helps to rehabilitate the whole person through effective detoxification and a series of courses designed to enhance life skills.
