Various rehabilitation programs boast about using the newest approach or the latest technology but at Narconon they simply do what works and achieves results for the participant. You can use all the new technology the world has to offer but if it doesn’t produce long term results for participants it is a waste of time and effort. Utilizing a sauna based detoxification process the participant engages in a number of therapies which will facilitate the removal of toxins left in the body through years of drug and alcohol abuse. Where most rehabilitation programs advocate the use of other drugs like methadone, the program at Narconon seeks true detoxification through holistic and natural methods which do not introduce other drugs into the body of the participant.

Additionally, participants engage in educational therapies centering on changing life conditions. The life skills training classes received at Narconon Vista Bay which is administered by professionally trained staff members prepare participants for reintegration into society with a newly developed sense of self-control. Participants can then deal with problems and difficult conditions in their life in new ways. Encouraging the development of communication skills participants learn to resist old habits and engage life with new strategies which can produce more positive results. This approach to drug rehabilitation has produced effective results for the last 4 decades and continues to change the lives of former addicts today.

Various rehabilitation programs complete detoxification and rehabilitation in less then 10 weeks time and then participants are released back out on the street or sent home with no support structure at all. Many find themselves back in the same circumstances they left in order to enter treatment. One of the differences in the rehabilitation program of Vista Bay is the comprehensive follow-up program which continues to provide support for former addicts as they reintegrate back into society. Historic information shows that if former addicts are to have the best chance of remaining drug free a comprehensive follow-up program will be a key component in their success.

At Narconon Vista Bay recovering addicts are nurtured by staff, family and friends subsequently developing a new sense of self-worth. A complete support structure embraces the addict and encourages them to complete rehabilitation program successful and go on to remain drug and alcohol free for the rest of their lives. With each successful step completed in the program participants begin to gain a healthy level of self-esteem which is the direct by-product of successful goal achievement. As the participant gains confidence in their ability to live a drug-free life they become prepared to face the many challenges of life with self-control, self-worth and self-esteem.
