Heritage Home Supports Clients Suffering from Alcoholism by Providing Effective and Cost Efficient Alcohol and Drug Addiction Treatment


Help Yourself or a Loved One by Understanding the Disease of Alcoholism…

Alcoholism is a disease that can have devastating effects on your health. Liver, pancreatic, or kidney disease, alcohol poisoning, brain deterioration and internal bleeding are some health affects that can result in death. For pregnant women, drinking is the leading cause of mental and physical birth defects. Research studies show that although the early stage of pregnancy is a high-risk period, irreversible damage caused by alcohol consumption can occur throughout the trimesters because the baby’s brain is still developing. Fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) can impact on a baby’s health by causing problems like mental retardation, behavioral problems, or facial deformities. Fortunately, proper health care during and after pregnancy has a great impact on the health of your child.

The caring staff at Heritage Home can help you recover from the effects of alcoholism by developing your body, mind and spirit through the Holistic approach to alcohol rehabilitation and sobriety.

Is Alcoholism a Social or Medical Problem? Find out more…

Alcoholism was known as a social, rather than medical disease. It is true that there are many social and legal consequences for alcoholism. Loss of employment, divorce, criminal charges like assault and reckless endangerment, and suspension of one’s licence, is but a few examples of how alcoholism can destroy lives. The fact remains however, that it is hard to achieve or maintain sobriety due to the medical problems associated with being an alcoholic.

The difficulty in providing alcoholics with long lasting cures prompted researches, the medical community and pharmaceutical companies to investigate how prescription medication can assist addiction therapists in helping their alcoholic clients minimize cravings for alcohol.

Research studies by universities, hospitals and pharmaceutical companies have tested prescription drugs like Naltrexone, Vivitrex (an injectable form of Naltrexone), Campral and Disulfiram. Studies have found that these prescription drugs can significantly help alcohol dependent patients in abstaining from consuming alcohol two to three times longer than those who did not use these prescription drugs. These results occur because when the brain’s addiction pathways are targeted, the desire to consume alcohol is lessened. Lessened, not eliminated.

Because prescription drugs do not eliminate addiction problems, it is essential for people to receive a Holistic approach to recovery. By receiving a Holistic approach to recovery, you or a loved one can begin healing from the medical, social and legal effects of alcoholism. The Heritage Home alcohol and drug rehab program aids clients in the healing process by dealing with their addiction, responding to the underlined causes of addiction, and developing a post-treatment support plan that will enable you to achieve sobriety.

Why Alcohol and Drug Rehab Treatment is Essential to You or a Loved One’s Recovery…

Problems with prescription drug approaches is that even when prescription medication is consumed properly, the brain has created memory paths in its learning centers that can last for years after the person has stopped drinking alcohol.

Learning paths are created when alcohol is consumed because a neurotransmitter called GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) helps to create a sense of euphoria. Excessive alcohol consumption creates too much GABA, which leads to poor muscle control and slow response times. To deal with this problem, the brain releases a stimulating chemical called glutamate. Unfortunately, even when alcohol consumption is stopped, glutamate levels are still high. Irritability and discomfort are typical side effects of this imbalance and people tend to cope with these painful emotional and physical reactions by drinking. Alcohol consumption keeps both the GABA and glutamate levels even, that is why the risk of relapse is very high. Long-term results of trying to avoid the pain of withdrawal are life threatening diseases and social and legal problems.

It is necessary to receive medical supervision when withdrawing from chronic alcoholism. Addiction therapy is needed so you or a loved one can learn how to live a life of sobriety. Heritage Home alcohol and drug therapy approaches fight against the brain’s chemical imbalances by creating ways of helping clients cope with their unique triggers. Places, things or even smells can trigger intense cravings that result in relapse. Prescription drugs like Naltrexone, Vivitrex, Campral, and Disulfiram can assist in limiting the amount of alcohol consumption, but unless a person can develop effective coping skills, as taught in our alcohol and drug treatment program, he or she will be at a high risk of relapsing.

Nutritional Therapy is an Important Part of Alcoholism Recovery…

Clients will benefit from our nutritional therapy program. Heritage Home will work with you to create a dietary program, which is essential to recovery. Due to excessive drinking, alcoholics are at risk of developing insulin resistance syndrome (low blood sugar or hypoglycemia). The effect of hypoglycemia is an impairment of function called neuroglycopenia. Loss of functioning ranges from feeling ill, coma, or in rare cases, death. The Holistic approach to alcohol recovery used by Heritage Home focuses on rebuilding body, mind and spirit. Proper nutrition is a basic step in maintaining a healthy life style and achieving sobriety.

Heritage Home Uses Modern Breakthrough Alcohol and Drug Addiction Treatment…

As alcohol and drug remedies are approved by health organizations and become available in Canada and the United States, Heritage Home makes these treatments available to our clients.

One such natural plant remedy called Kudzu (a drug that is extracted from the Kudzu root) may help in treating alcoholism. The natural Kudzu root provides alcoholics with the feeling of intoxication while lessening the amount of alcohol consumed. This type of treatment is a moderation approach. Moderation can be beneficial to people suffering from alcoholism. However, an abstention approach is recommended for those who have medical problems associated with alcoholism.

The choice to receive moderation or abstention therapy needs to be discussed with a professional. At Heritage Home, our clinical staff works with each client in developing an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program that is best suited for their unique medical and psychological needs.
