1. Chemical imbalance in the brain;
2. Unresolved events from the past;
3. Beliefs you hold that are inconsistent with what is true;
4. An inability to cope with current conditions.

Genetics is not a cause of dependency, so we do not list it as one. There are millions of people in the Unites States alone whose ancestors were addicted to substances, and they are not, and have never been. Neither do we say that you have the incurable “disease” of addiction, nor that relapse is a result of this “disease.” Rather, alcoholism and addiction are symptoms of one, or a combination, of the four causes. We also know that once the cause(s) of your dependency has been found and healed, your dependence on drugs, alcohol or addictive behavior will end.

ABUSING OPIUM TO COPE WITH UNDERLYING PROBLEMS

All addictive drugs produce a reward system in the brain. Using addictive drugs, such as opium, gives us a feeling of well-being, and users frequently develop a tolerance to the drug.

Passages Addiction Cure Center in Malibu understands that every person who relies on opium, or any addictive substance for that matter, does so to relieve or cope with underlying problems in his or her life. These underlying problems must be brought to the surface and healed with professional therapy in order to achieve a complete cure.

Whether the cause of your opium dependency is strictly one of the four aforementioned causes, or a combination of them, at least one of the four causes has to be present in your life for you to need to continue to use opium.

If you have become psychologically and physically dependent on opium, know that you can easily heal your dependency once you cure whichever of the four causes listed above is present in your life.

Permanent freedom from dependency on opium may be only a phone call away. We will be with you or your loved one along your path towards permanent sobriety. Please call us now at (888) 777-8525 to learn more. We also offer Ativan rehab as well as OxyContin rehab.

TRUST PASSAGES ADDICTION CURE CENTER TO PROVIDE ONE-TO-ONE OPIUM REHABILITATION

Our founders, Chris and Pax Prentiss, know from personal experience that group meetings are not effective in curing dependency. Rather than emphasizing and searching for the root causes of a person’s dependency, standard group treatment only provides a person with a sense of community. This treatment method ignores the fact that each individual is different—that there is no program that can meet the needs of all people.

Most of these treatment centers offer a one-size-fits-all type of service, which is like a department store that sells one-size-fits-all clothing. They hope that while clients are sitting in their group meetings, some magic word will drop into their laps that will suddenly make them free of addictive drugs and alcohol. Here at Passages, we know that this method does not work because each client is unique.

Here at Passages Addiction Cure Center, we understand that every client is different and, because of that, needs a highly tailored, individual program to achieve a permanent addiction cure.

COMPLETE, HOLISTIC OPIUM REHAB FOR YOUR TOTAL CURE

Even though some of our clients enter our treatment program reluctantly, within a few days they have fully responded to the undeniable atmosphere of healing, to the love, and to the great expertise of our therapists, and they call the people who were responsible for their coming to Passages to thank them.

And our expert therapists, including psychotherapists, hypnotherapists, spiritual counselors, and more, are renowned in the industry for their breakthrough methods and strategies.

We believe that a total, holistic, private, one-on-one approach to an opium addiction cure is essential because it is necessary to treat the entire person who is dependent on addictive substances. That is why we offer services such as spiritual counseling, which is important in clearing individual problems at a profound level.

According to Audrey Hope, one of Passages Addiction Cure Center’s spiritual counselors and the creator of her own award-winning international talk show, “spiritual counseling…works because it answers the questions of what really makes us suffer as human beings. We all feel pain for wounds not processed, truth not spoken, anger not expressed, unconscious beliefs that kill, low self-esteem, self-abandonment, and longing for inner peace.”

Passages Addiction Cure Center offers answers to these deep inner issues and these damaging self-perspectives in an effort to heal spiritually as well as psychologically and physically. Passages Addiction Cure Center offers a true, complete, holistic treatment program unrivaled by any other in the world.
