WHAT MAKES ARISE UNIQUE?
The ARISE Alcohol Recovery Residential Program is DIFFERENT from most treatment progams. Our focus is on relieving the underlying cause of the addiction. We begin the recovery process by restoring severely dysfunctional brain chemistry with an emphasis on micro-nutritherapy and healthy nutrition. Once the underlying cause of alcoholism is relieved, symptoms are naturally removed without the use of medications.
We use infra-red, dry heat sauna detoxification to remove the alcohol toxins that are stored in the fatty tissues. If not removed, these toxins can move into the blood stream during times of severe stress and create a craving for alcohol that is unconscious and automatic, causing relapse months and years after recovery.
At ARISE, participants learn how to restore the body’s energy pathways so that dis-ease is released and healing can occur naturally. New neural pathways in the brain are created to sustain ongoing recovery.

ISN’T RELAPSE NORMAL?
Relapse is usually due to an imbalance of brain chemistry. You know that when your body is craving alcohol, nothing you’ve learned from talking and education takes away the craving and nothing works better and faster than alcohol to make you feel better, temporarily.
In a 2009 research study of 62 alcohol dependent people, conducted by Dr. Suka Chapel, 95% had low blood sugar symptoms (hypoglycemia). In another research study of 100 alcohol dependent individuals, approximately 88% were hypoglycemic, 73% had allergies, 56% had environmental sensitivities, 55% of the women and 35% of the men had histories indicating probable candida overgrowth.* No amount of talking or therapy will cure these problems or change the brain’s chemical imbalance. While alcohol temporarily relieves the symptoms of these problems, in actuality, it is really making things worse.
In addition to these imbalances, your body is lacking the vitamins, minerals, amino acids, essential fatty acids, trace elements and enzymes that are absolutely necessary for releiving your physical dependency on alcohol. Dependence on caffeine, refined sugar and nicotine are telling examples of biochemical imbalance.
So, yes, relapse is normal when brain chemistry remains dysfunctional. At ARISE you will learn how to repair your brain chemistry. You will learn how to relieve depression, insomnia, anxiety and cravings, and more so that relapse is no longer normal.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY “BIOCHEMICAL RESTORATION”?
Your body is made up of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fatty acids, trace elements and enzymes. When these substances are lacking or unbalanced, you experience symptoms that you recognize as cravings, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, insomnia, headaches, mood swings, irritability, out-of-control behaviors, anger, violence and suicidal thoughts, to name just a few. These symptoms are not a reflection of the real you. They are the result of chemical imbalances in the brain and body.
No amount of will power can restore these chemical imbalances.
To recover, you must add the missing ingredients: food supplements, in very specific amounts, in order to stabilize your biochemistry. Due to your alcohol dependence, your body is unable to metabolize much of what you are eating so that very large amounts of supplements must be added to your diet so that your body can absorb and utilize them. Additionally, proper nutrition through healthy food habits will restore your body and brain to normal..
