Drug Rehabilitation &

New Life Detoxification Procedure
In  1978,  Narconon  adopted  Mr.  Hubbard‟s  second  and      truly    pioneering       innovation,       the    New       Life Detoxification       Program.     The    program      utilizes  intensive sweating in dry sauna, in combination with plenty of fluids and   nutritional   supplementation,   to   reduce   drug   residuals from   the   body.  Drug   residues,   including   medicinal   drugs, can remain in the body for years. These residues can trigger drug cravings and depression. A vital step in the successful rehabilitation      of  substance    abuse     is  flushing    out   these accumulated   toxic   residues   so   that   the   person   no   longer experiences   unwanted   adverse   effects   from   the   drugs   he has taken.

The   Narconon        New    Life   Detoxification   produces spectacular   results   by   removing   the   root   causes   of   future physical     restimulation.     One    of   the  cornerstones      of   our treatment       is  the    New      Life    Detoxification      program. Research has established that many types of drugs, such as cocaine,      heroin,    Valium,      PCP,     amphetamines      (crank, crystal,   meth,   ecstasy,   etc.)   alcohol   and   medicinal  drugs such as narcotic painkillers, tranquilizers and sleeping pills, can remain in the body for years.

Over   time,   these   residues   and   metabolites   of   these   drugs   can  become   stored   in   the   fatty tissues   of   the   body.   When   this   happens,   these   stored   residues   can   make   it   difficult,   if   not impossible, for the addict or alcoholic to remain drug-free.

These      residues     can   trigger    a  variety    of   symptoms,       including      drug    cravings     and depression.   These   cravings   and   the   obsessive   need   to   use   drugs   that   they   create,  are   so difficult to resist that the addict will do almost anything to get even the most illegal of drugs. The result is always trouble.

A vital step in the successful rehabilitation of substance abuse is flushing out these accumulated toxic residues. An exact regimen of medically supervised exercise, periods of time   sweating   in   a   dry   sauna   (while   drinking   large   amounts   of   water   and   taking   frequent cool-off and shower breaks) and nutritional supplements are used to rid the fatty tissues in the body of these drug residues. The results can be spectacular. In many cases, completion of this    portion    of  the   Narconon       program      results    in  greatly   reduced      cravings     for   drugs,    or elimination of these cravings entirely. Mental alertness and clarity of thinking improve while drug-induced depression often vanishes.
