Rehab News: New alcohol treatment launches in Canada

A clinic in Vancouver is offering a new form of alcohol treatment, called the Neuroreceptor Repair and Regeneration (NRR) protocol.

The treatment is said to consist of an "innovative and nurturing detoxification" and is based on correcting the neurological aspects of chemical dependency at the source of the problem.

Developed by Vancouver-based Maggie Gold, the detoxification method involves an intravenous infusion of amino acids, vitamins and minerals that are designed to help flush out the chemicals that are largely responsible for relapse.

The treatment, which is administered during a ten-day detoxification course, is "very gentle", said Ms Gold.

"A large number of addicts fear the detoxification process because of how painful it can be. Fortunately, our integrated treatment significantly reduces these unpleasant withdrawal effects," she claimed.

The expert noted that, while many alcohol treatment methods focus on the psychological aspects of recovery from alcoholism, they tend to miss out physical detoxification and brain chemistry.

"Unless the stored metabolites from drug or alcohol intake are completely eliminated and brain function is repaired and regenerated, addictive cravings continue and recovery remains a struggle," she added.
