Drug addiction or chemical dependence of many kinds is a huge social problem and takes a huge toll on people and the society. It takes a very strong commitment and resources both financial and human to undergo a successful treatment. Many treatment centers have been experimenting with novel approaches and trying to rely less on chemical treatment and more on alternative medicine approaches that include Biofeedback and Bioresonance therapies.
One important component of the therapy is having patients undergo re-learning how to live life positively. After all, life is an experience. When reliance on chemicals overtakes a person’s capability to make her/his own choices to experience life, and the active and conscious participation in life is no longer possible, the life can spin out of control. In overcoming chemical dependence and addiction, it is vital to replace the current behavior with positive and enriching behavior to re-experience life. This lesson helps a treatment center citizen reintegrate into the world after going through the treatment. This Experiential treatment or therapy is the bridge to leaving a life of chemical dependence and commencing a life of health, both physical and emotional (mental).
Experiential treatment is a needed component of the therapy. It is the door to the world– it forces the patient to evaluate himself (herself), to own up when he/she falls and learn that quitting is not an option. This is a vital lesson a patient learns during the treatment that, when problems occur there are other means of handling problems than reverting to chemical dependency.
Experiential therapies are of many types but can be divided into two main classifications, outdoor experiential therapy, and indoor experiential therapy. Research supports the use of experiential Therapy as it boosts the confidence and wellbeing which helps better social interaction and integration.
The outdoor activities are quite popular for their healing abilities. A good workout by itself releases the same feel-good endorphins as some chemical highs might. The outdoor experiential treatment uses nature to help residents resolve their issues and free themselves from chemical dependence. Activities can consist of winter sports like snowshoeing, and summertime sports like hiking. More extreme activities, like a Heli-experience, are likewise possible.
While outdoor activities are advantageous for the social element of communicating with other residents, their main achievement is to make the resident introspect and put a perspective on their own life.
Indoor experiential treatment can be based on an indoor ropes and obstacle course. Equine treatment integrates elements from both indoor and outdoor therapies. The equine therapy combines the power of nature and a physical challenge as well as need to build and rely on the relationship with a fellow living animal which is a great boost to the self-esteem.
As more and more people look for alternative non-chemical treatments, therapies like Experiential, Biofeedback and Bioresonance therapies are getting attention as adjunct therapies or one of the components of an integrated treatment.
Bioresonance Therapy is a type of Biofeedback therapy that has also been found to be useful in alleviating the many effects of withdrawal during treatment for addictions.
