People who struggle with addiction lead a life of suffering and need evidence-based addiction treatment centers to recover.
The cost of addiction is high—not only financially but also from a mental and physical standpoint.
Beating addiction takes a tremendous amount of commitment. Those who find the most significant success in recovery do so with the aid of evidence-based addiction treatment.
Best Rehabs In Arizona ranks among the best evidence-based addiction treatment centers in the nation. Our approach combines the best evidence-based addiction treatment with holistic wellness that promotes healing of the total person’s body, mind, and soul.
The outcome is a well-rounded, healed person who beats addiction and equips themselves to fight cravings and relapse. This philosophy enables people to get—and remain—clean and sober for life.
Here are some of the primary points you need to know if you are ready to start your life over again, without addiction to drugs or alcohol.
Dr. David Sackett coined the term evidence-based medicine in a paper published in 1996. His definition of evidence-based treatment (for addiction or otherwise) as follows:
“The conscientious, explicit, and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients.”
That might make you wonder what that means, precisely. Let us break down the primary points of Dr. Sackett’s statement and relate it specifically to evidence-based practice in addiction treatment.
First, he mentions the importance of employing evidence-based addiction programs in a targeted way—carefully, clearly, and in good judgment. Your physician at Best Rehabs In Arizona will craft the best treatment plan for each person in our care.
Next, Dr. Sackett discusses the need for the current best evidence. Scientific researchers work continuously to find the next advancements in treating patients. Studies further drill down to discover the best evidence-based treatments for opiate addiction, cocaine abuse, and more. Physicians should use the latest, proven therapies and keep on top of emerging science to give their patients the most favorable outcomes.
Finally, Dr. Sackett notes that care providers should make their decisions.
Undergoing addiction treatment is not like trying on a one-size-fits-all shirt. Addiction comes in all different shapes and sizes. Knowing which therapy is the best evidence-based addiction treatment depends on physician know-how.
Fortunately, our team at Best Rehabs In Arizona has twenty-five-plus years of experience, allowing us to formulate the most useful evidence-based addiction treatment programs for each person in our care.
Nobody sets out in life with the express goal of becoming addicted to alcohol or drugs. Substance abuse results from traumatic events, either physical or psychological. Therefore, you must receive treatment for both the substance use disorder and your trauma to heal fully.
Consider these scenarios, as they underscore the validity of this thought process.
A young woman takes a severe physical beating from her partner. She sustains physical wounds that heal, but it is the mental torment that haunts her. Her friend shares an anxiety prescription with her, hoping she will quell the feelings of despair. It works, and the young woman grows dependent on it. Instead of coping with the feelings, however, she begins abusing that pill to quiet her mind.
Here is another typical situation. A young man sustains a debilitating neck injury in a motorcycle accident. During his long recovery, the doctor prescribes painkillers to ease his discomfort. After months of use, the doctor takes the patient off the pain medication. But the young man grew addicted to the prescription. Now, to ease his suffering, he turns to street drugs like heroin to keep the pain at bay.
These are fictitious accounts—but we hear these themes over and again at Best Rehabs In Arizona. Know that these scenarios are the reason that we affirm that evidence-based addiction and trauma treatment go hand-in-hand.
We see an interesting paradox as related to Alcohol Use Disorder, alcoholism. Alcohol is a legal drug, and so many people use it for toasting special occasions and celebrating life’s special moments. However, as much as people accept drinking alcohol casually, they attach a stigma to those who grow addicted. That seems somehow unfair!
Therefore, we see evidence-based addiction treatment and alcohol rehab as a match made in heaven. We use the latest behavioral modification techniques, counseling, and group therapies to help you break the cycle of alcoholism.
Then, we take it a step further by helping our clients dig deep inside themselves to uncover the root of their addiction. If we find a secondary diagnosis, which we call a dual diagnosis, we also treat that condition.
