Alternative To Meds Center

At the Alternative To Meds Center in Sedona, Arizona, licensed medical and behavioral health professionals help participants to reduce or eliminate their dependence on pharmaceuticals. The center welcomes individuals with a variety of challenges, including substance dependence as well as anxiety, depression, psychosis, and other mental illnesses. The center's care team works to restore these individuals to mental wellness while minimizing withdrawal symptoms and supporting well-being through nutrition, environmental medicine, and individualized detoxification.

The Alternative To Meds Center understands that much of what people experience as mental health symptoms actually come from accumulated toxins in the brain. After undergoing a thorough medical examination to determine the nature of his or her toxic load, the participant takes part in a program in which exercise, supplementation, and sauna therapy begin to flush the toxins out of the system. Then, as part of a holistic detoxification and wellness program, the participant receives a customized suite of adjunctive therapies that helps toxins to be released from the body.

With all participants, the center strives to find the root cause of symptoms and create a holistic plan for addressing them. Ideally, by restoring balance to the brain and body systems, the center can help the participant to achieve mental wellness without the aid of artificial substances.
