Transitions Rosarito Beach provides advanced Ibogaine therapy and 24 hour medical staff to ensure the safety and comfort of all our guests. Our oceanfront retreat offers a soothing environment to safely detox from alcohol. We do not force group meetings, and we do not force our guests to get a sponsor or to attend AA meetings. The Ibogaine Treatment we provide offers intense introspection that allows our guests to think for themselves and discover their own truths. It is unrealistic to think there is one path we all must follow in order to succeed.
Unfortunately, many of the available alcohol rehab centerswill try and keep overhead costs down by not hiring the proper medical staff. The lack of professional staff is often supplementedby group therapy and the 12-steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. This approach may be helpful for some people; however, based on the statistics, this model has a 92% failure rate and since you are researching our Ibogaine Treatment, this may mean that it did not work for you.
Before choosing your alcohol rehab center it is important to ask some basic questions in order to ensure you are not setting yourself up for more of the same routine.
Question 1:
Will I be forced to attend AA meetings and find a sponsor?
If the 12-step program does not seem suitable to you, then definitely avoid treatment centers that are based on going to those meetings.
Question 2:
How much of this program will consist of group meetings?
If a treatment facility dedicates a large portion of the program to group therapy, this most likely indicates a lack of hands on treatment that is geared toward the actual problem behind the addiction. The best way to completely turn people away is to force them to attend group meetings all day.
Question 3:
How many on-site nurses and Doctors and do they employ and do they work 24 hours a day?
Treatment facilities that do not have 24-hour nursing careare gravely compromising the safety and comfort of their patients. Detoxification can be very dangerous, especially alcohol detox becauseit can cause seizure. It is absolutely critical the detox process happens in a medically supervised environment; without a professional medical staff, this can’t be achieved.
Question 4:
Will program label me as an “addict” or “alcoholic” upon admission?
Almost allalcohol rehab centers will label their patients as addicts and/or alcoholics. This may be the most damaging aspect these programs. Forcing someone to identify herself as an addict or alcoholic only reinforces the low self-steam and shame the drive the addiction.
Question 5:
What are the real reasons behind addiction?
If you ask this question and you don’t get a clear answer, you’re told addiction is a disease; the center probably is centered on the Big Book of alcoholics anonymous. The first these centers will do is assign destructive labels to their patients and force them to believe they are powerless.
