Narconon Fresh Start - Rehab Unlike Any Other!

Narconon Fresh Start is a drug rehab program unlike any other available, and one which has among the highest success rates in terms of long-term abstinence once clients complete our program. What makes Narconon Fresh Start different is that we don’t base our treatment curriculum off of the traditional “disease” model, as most programs do. The basis of our program at Narconon Fresh Start is much more proactive, giving individuals an opportunity to completely resolve their addiction issues so when they walk out our door and return home there is no need to attend daily meetings or take part in any sort of maintenance activities. In other words, they are completely rehabilitated and are confident that they can remain off of drugs for good because they have handled any and all issues which prompted them to abuse drugs in the first place.

The other aspect of the Narconon Fresh Start program which makes it so workable and effective is that we only provide treatment in a residential long-term setting, so that individuals have the most ideal setting for a full recovery. Under most circumstances, putting a hardcore addict in an outpatient or short-term program is setting them up for failure. Even someone with a moderate history of substance abuse may not fare well in such program if there are circumstances in their life which could easily trigger a relapse. For example, someone in outpatient treatment who returns home to an abusive parent or partner every day is not going to be able to sustain their gains in treatment and will very likely not even complete the program or relapse shortly after. At Narconon Fresh Start however, our facilities accommodate a long-term stay for clients, who may remain in treatment for several months.  Everything is provided on-site to make them as comfortable as possible and is off course drug free and distraction free so that they can completely focus on their treatment process.


Rehabilitation starts with a complete detoxification, including a standard drug and alcohol detox as well as a sauna detoxification program offered only at Narconon Fresh Start. The sauna program which incorporates exercise and supplements helps completely eliminate residual drugs and toxins from an addict’s body so that they aren’t held back physically during the recovery process or at any point in the future. The next steps of rehab at Narconon Fresh Start focus on developing communication and confront skills, so that an individual is better able to better handle situations, people and life circumstances that would ordinarily trigger them to abuse drugs. It is also very important for individuals to weed out the people in their lives which cause them stress or provoke emotions or actions which may trigger a relapse. This can be a very difficult step, but one which is very important to thoroughly cover before a person leaves rehab. Accountability is also very important, and our clients take responsibility for their substance abuse and make amends where possible so that a true fresh start for them and their families is possible.
