Total Rehab Services, Inc., is proud to offer a revolutionary and comprehensive psycho-physiological approach to the treatment of addictions and compulsive disorders. Many health care providers agree that a holistic approach (mind/body) to the treatment of addictions can bring about significant changes in the patient’s addictive symptomatology. Research has shown that an integrated holistic approach is at the core of the successful resolution of this disorder. By focusing on readjusting mental and physical imbalances using alternative medical modalities such as: acupuncture, vitamin/minerals and amino acid therapy, nutritional counseling, homeopathic, herbal therapy, psychotherapy and hypnotherapy, all under one rehabilitation program, can bring about long lasting changes towards a drug-free life style. We also conduct biopsychosocial assessment and evaluations to determine drug dependency or drug addictive tendencies. In addition, we perform drug screenings for DUI’s cases, court referrals, or for employees who were caught with “a dirty urine”. We specialized in the treatment of chronically addicted and dual diagnosed patients. Since 1992, our outpatient substance abuse program has been licensed by the Florida Department of Children and Families. Total Rehab Services’ professional staff is State licensed, certified, bilingual and with an extensive experience in the field of addictions rehabilitation. |

Drug addictions affect millions of people in the United States. Statistics continue to show an alarming upper trend with no signs of reversal at sight. Many health care providers agree that conventional clinical intervention methods had failed to produce long lasting effects. Research has shown that genetics and/or biochemical imbalances are at the heart of addictions. We, at Total Rehab Services, strongly believe that by focusing on readjusting the biochemical and mental imbalances, as well as nutritional, and bioenergetic deficiencies at the same time, a long lasting rehabilitation is possible.
Proper diet and nutritional supplementation are essential in the treatment of addictions. The clinical focus in the nutritional rehabilitation is to eliminate drug cravings and withdraws by changing the client's neurochemistry and nutritional deficiencies through dietary intervention, amino acid, and vitamin/mineral therapy. We call this clinical approach "biochemical restoration." Extensive research conducted by Dr. Michael Smith MD, at the Lincoln Hospital in New York City, demonstrated the efficacy of acupuncture treatment for the reduction of heroin, cocaine and crack use. His clinical findings showed fewer relapses and a significant reduction of re-admissions to drug treatment centers for those who received acupuncture treatment for an extended period. Homeopathic and Herbal therapy is an important adjunct to drug treatment. Due to the direct deleterious influence on specific organs such as the liver, kidneys, stomach, colon, lymphatic system by the use and abuse of drugs, a systemic organ detoxification is a must. These two therapies stimulate the body’s purging mechanisms triggering a gradual elimination of homotoxins without causing the body to decompensate. Since optimal function of eliminative organs is necessary to battle addictions and sustain recovery, blood-cleansing remedies are also vital to complete the detoxification process. Everybody knows that cigarette smoking poses health risks. Nevertheless, did you know that smoking can steal away a month of life a year? One cigarette can increase your heart rate by 20-25 beats per minute; cigarettes contain more than three thousand known toxic poisons; smoking a pack a day can deplete the body of more Vitamin C than most people can consume in 24 hours, and smoking is so immunosuppressive that it takes three months to reverse it's damage to the immune system. About the addictions program and policies Our program intervention encompasses all five addictions: alcohol, drugs, eating disorders, gambling, sex, and work. Our clinical intervention lasts 3 to 4 months depending on the patient’s level of recovery. Therapy sessions are conducted three times a week, until the patient is stabilized; usually 6 weeks, then treatment is given twice a week for the remaining of the program. Sessions are usually one to two and half hours in length depending on the type of therapy given. Psychotherapy sessions include individual, couples, and/or family therapy (family involvement is required). Rehabilitation treatment sessions include acupuncture, homeopathic detoxification and herbal therapies, and nutritional counseling. Total Rehab Services has a “Zero Tolerance” policy. We do randomized urine/saliva tests throughout the program. One positive result from the urine/saliva tests constitutes enough grounds for an immediate termination from the program. Urine test and/or saliva samples are mandatory. Payment plans are offered and major credit cards accepted. Health insurance coverage for mental health and substance abuse only reimburses for psychotherapy services in an outpatient setting. All alternative medical and nutritional components of the program are not covered by most health insurance plans. The following is the complete clinical intervention rendered to all patients admitted into the program.
Our program has a track record of 80% success among our graduates.
