Meet Dr. Steven Stein, Narconon Vista Bay Medical Director

07:43 minutes

In this short video, Dr. Stein discusses his education and the qualifications he possesses that led to his current position at Narconon Vista Bay.

Why Most Medical Doctors Don’t Understand Addiction

09:03 minutes

Dr. Stein discusses one of the major drawbacks to successful diagnoses for most drug addicts. Many doctors are skeptical to diagnose problems and prescribe addiction treatment because they’re not trained correctly. Dr. Stein says that what most doctors perceive as an “addict” is a stereotype that does not reflect the truth. As a consequence, there may be thousands of people in dire need of drug treatment who have yet to receive it.

The Importance of Detoxification in Drug Rehab

09:03 minutes

Dr. Stein discusses the vital importance of complete detoxification from drugs and alcohol. This is an essential part of substance abuse treatment. It must be accomplished before attempting to address the underlying problems that led to the addiction in the first place. The time required for successful Detox cannot be rushed.

Diagnosing Alcohol And Drug Rehab Patients

09:03 minutes

How does a person know that he or she has a problem with drugs or alcohol that requires substance abuse treatment? Dr. Stein answers that question by pointing out the single most important thing that a patient must realize before entering drug rehab.

The Biggest Obstacle To Effective Drug Treatment

09:03 minutes

In this video, Dr. Stein describes the biggest obstacle that often defeats drug rehab patients and causes the majority of relapses. Its not availability of treatment or lack of support, but simply a lack of adequate time to confront the problem. The old adage that time heals all wounds is particularly true with substance abuse. The more time a person puts into their recovery, the happier they will be with the results.

The Changing Trends of Drug Rehab and Drug Addiction Treatment

09:03 minutes

Dr. Stein discusses what he sees as the biggest changes in drug treatment over the last ten years. The types of cases that are typically treated at Narconon Vista Bay have changed a lot in a relatively short time. One thing that has not changed, however, is the need for adequate, effective treatment.

The Importance of Time in Drug Treatment

09:03 minutes

Are longer drug and alcohol programs really more effective in treating the addicted patient? Dr. Stein gives a big emphatic yes. He stresses the importance of allowing adequate time when treating the patient. He points out how a typical 28-day program (usually determined by insurance) does not begin to address the problems that need to be treated. This, he says, is why addiction treatment at Narconon Vista Bay has no time limit. It takes as long as it takes, which is how drug rehab should be.

Sauna Detox at Narconon Vista Bay: Why It Works

09:03 minutes

Extraordinary situations often require extraordinary methods to produce the best results. When it comes to alcohol and drug addiction treatment, traditional treatment methods do not address the toxins left in body tissues from years of substance abuse. Dry sauna treatment is a required part of the Narconon drug and alcohol treatment program at Vista Bay. Dr. Stein describes the beneficial effects of sauna on creating complete detoxification in the addict.

When It Comes To Drug Treatment, Longer Is Better

09:03 minutes

Dr. Stein talks about the advantages to longer-period addiction treatment. While the financial investment may be considerably more, the outcome is usually worth every penny for the patient, the patient’s family, and their future in the long term.

Effective Alternatives To 12-Step Programs

09:03 minutes

For many people, the respected 12-step withdrawal program only leads to failure, relapses and a further lack of self-esteem. It is estimated that over 90% of addicts who attend a 12-step meeting never attend another one, and a majority of 12-step attendees can have four or more relapses. Clearly, there needs to be an alternative. Thankfully, there is. Dr. Stein provides some welcome advice for addicts who have found no help in traditional 12-step alcohol and drug addiction treatment programs.

Alcoholism – Recognizing Problem Drinking

09:03 minutes

Alcohol can be just as destructive to an abusers family as it can be to the alcoholic. Dr. Stein discusses the deceptive traits of alcohol abuse how hard it can be to determine that you have a problem, and how not recognizing this problem can affect entire groups of people. He also stresses the importance of seeking effective alcohol treatment at Narconon Vista Bay.
