One more thing to love about Asheville, North Carolina, aside from the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Biltmore Estate, and some bluegrass music, is a recovery center that is “holistic, dynamic, creative, experiential, individualized, and mindfulness-based.”
NAD+ Therapy: A Powerful Aid for Recovery and Detoxification
In a world full of contrast, challenges, and discomfort, it is the seeking of new solutions that constantly propels us forwards, towards more of everything we desire: more freedom, more relief, and more health and well-being.
There are as many solutions in this world as there are problems, because for every problem or physical manifestation of vibrational energy, there is an equal energetic creation of its opposite.
Light has a shadow, north has a south, disease has healing. The world of 3 dimensions, is a world of polarity. All this is to say: it comes as no surprise that as the challenge of addiction presents specific elements of suffering and discomfort, new avenues of healing, with new refined specifics of ease and comfort, are constantly being formulated and discovered.
One such treatment form is called NAD+ Therapy. Is it a miracle drug? not exactly. Does it offer relief and healing that to some might seem rather miraculous? Absolutely. Because that is what has been called for from the realm of suffering. And when there is a call, there is an answer.
This is an avenue that bypasses some of the lengthy and torturous experience of detox. It is a method to more efficiently reverse the damage of repeated drug abuse, on a cellular level. It is an avenue of healing for the body and psychosomatic system that comes with more ease and flow.
Who just pitched a perfect game against substance abuse stigma?
The stigma surrounding substance abuse and addiction is so strong in our society that we rarely think of a successful person as someone who could struggle, even though they are just as likely. The negative stigma continues to perpetuate false stereotypes, and in return, reinforces behavior of stress, fear, denial and secrecy. All of which exacerbate the problem and stand in the way of people getting help.
Let’s take a quick look at some baseball facts:
In 2001, CC Sabathia was the youngest player in the major leagues (after being awarded Minor League Player of the Year in 2000). He’s played for some of the top MLB teams. In 2008, he signed what was at the time the largerst contract for a pitcher in MLB history for the New York Yankees. He’s been an invaluable player since. In 2009, he was the Opening Day starter and that year won his first championship ring with the Yankees. He also won the American League Championship Series Most Valuable Player Award. By the end of 2014 season, he was one of the more sucessful pitchers from a hitting standpoint. And his ability to pitch a high number of effective innings each season has some broadcasters calling him the “workhorse.” He is the very definition of success in this country: determined and hard-working.

The complex situation of doctors and substance abuse is nothing new, but it is persistent. It is one that leaves many people scratching their heads. How can a doctor, trained to be a problem-solver and someone who is self-sufficient, recognize and acknowledge when he or she is struggling with substance abuse? How can these brilliant minds be at the top of their field and yet the end of their rope? Read more →
Here is one of the drug and alcohol facts that many people don’t always want to admit: rehab doesn’t always work. Not the first time, sometimes not the second or third. And for some it takes even more tries than that. But this shouldn’t be a discouragement or deterrent from them seeking help in the first place. It’s just important to understand the reasons why rehab doesn’t always work. And why incorporating NAD therapy like NTR Brain Restoration can be crucial to addressing the whole picture. Read more →
A question that’s asked often is ‘how do I know if I have lost control of drug or alcohol use?” Plenty of people who use drugs and alcohol on a regular basis swear they can stop anytime they want. And the truth is, not everyone who uses drugs or alcohol needs to help. Just as many people who do need help aren’t able to recognize that they’ve lost control of their drug or alcohol use. So how do you tell if you or a loved one has lost control of drug or alcohol use? Read more →
