Oxycontin Detox

OxyContin detox can be difficult because the drug falls into the opiate category (naturally occurring constituents of opium), causing both mental and physical addiction. Opiates travel rapidly through the bloodstream to the brain, where they stimulate opiate receptors, triggering intense feelings of pleasure and reward. This quick high is followed a state of relaxation and contentment that lasts for several hours. Concurrently, opiates act directly on the respiratory center in the brainstem, causing a decrease in the breathing rate of the user. When OxyContin® and/or other opiate-derivative drugs are used incorrectly, this breathing slow-down can be dangerous and even fatal.

OxyContin detox methods traditionally have focused on talk therapy, the psychological aspects of addiction and treatment for the often unbearable symptoms of withdrawal. The rate of success with traditional methods, however, has been low.

A newer and quicker method of OxyContin detox is Accelerated Neuro-Regulation (ANR), a rapid drug treatment that is being used with increasing success for opiate dependency. ANR (formerly rapid detox), also known as the Waismann Method^sm, treats OxyContin addiction as a physical disease that can be overcome with advanced medical techniques. ANR eliminates the cravings that often accompany traditional opiate detox treatments. The Waismann Method^sm has been clinically proven to be effective for OxyContin addiction. In fact, ANR clinics have reported success rates of nearly 64% in treating a variety of opiate addictions, including OxyContin addiction.
