“A holistic approach looks for fundamental underlying issues,
rather than only addressing symptoms.”
–Fran Sussman
A truly great drug rehab center knows that a holistic recovery program will help you discover and heal the underlying causes of addiction, which is the only way to achieve permanent recovery. Choosing a holistic recovery program is crucial because it identifies the primary causes of your dependency (the why), which always have both physical and psychological components that must be identified in order to truly heal. These can stem from anything such as anemia, hypoglycemia, thyroid problems, attention deficit disorder, brain-wave pattern imbalances, or deep emotional pain caused by trauma. The “why” may not always be self-evident because it is buried underneath the drugs, alcohol, and other symptoms that are used to numb the pain. At Passages Addiction Treatment Centers, the right team will guide and protect you as you delve into the areas of your life that have been hidden from you but hold the keys to your freedom.
It takes a carefully selected team to help you uncover and treat the specific reasons you are depending on addictive substances or behaviors to cope with your life. At Passages, you will be guided through a personalized program to achieve total recovery and optimum health. This is done by enlisting the help of several key health professionals that look at the specific situation from different points of view, treating every aspect of your life. A holistic approach considers the importance of the entire person: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. A team of specialized doctors, therapists, and health practitioners will help you work with your body, your mind, your emotions and your spirit to stimulate self-healing and regain your passion for life.
The pain is there for a reason. It is calling to you. It wants you to find it and heal it so that you can be free to exert energy on things that excite you and inspire you. But if you numb the pain and never fully address the situations that need to be healed, the pain will continue and even grow stronger. But you don’t have to face this alone. By identifying the source of the pain, and working through it with a team of professionals, you can find healing and begin to create a new direction for your life. Deepak Chopra states that “the best way to get rid of the pain is to feel the pain. And when you feel the pain and go beyond it, you’ll see there’s a very intense love that is waiting to awaken itself.” And won’t be alone… there is a team of professionals waiting to walk alongside you as you take the steps forward on this path towards freedom.
Passages Addiction Treatment Centers would like to help you find permanent freedom from your addiction through a holistic approach that can help you redefine the “why” that guides the life you decide to create.
