It’s so common for people struggling with addiction, PTSD, and depression to go through trial and fail. It’s not that they don’t choose the right methods or stick to the programs, but it’s the apparent reality that conventional methods fail their patients. Sadly, it’s the same for the poorly administered alternative methods as not everyone knows how to get the best out of the alternative therapies. It’s not the patient’s fault that nothing has worked for them until now. We totally understand why the struggle is still on; it’s merely because they haven’t tried our methods as we’re looking to uncover the ailments that caused their PTSD, depression, or anxiety. And only when we use the right techniques for every single patient is when healing begins.

As patients at the Holistic Sanctuary, you will forget about all the other methods you’ve tried and will get an entirely different take on your depression, PTSD, or addiction. No one has told them until now that healing can only begin when the mind, body, and soul are at peace. No one has taught them until now how yoga or meditation can help them discover the struggles in their souls that led to depression or PTSD later in life. No one has ever told them that a healthy diet (organic, plant-based, and non-GMO) will prepare their bodies and eliminate the toxins so that true healing can begin.

Patients always forget the feeling they had in life before anxiety, addiction, depression, or PTSD, and that’s one of the reasons why they shift so far from true self. At the Holistic Sanctuary, the methods used will help the patients not only go back to their life before addiction, but also get a fresh start in their life without addiction, depression, or PTSD. And every patient will be allowed to do it on their personal terms, in the particular rhythm, as healing is different for everyone, and no program should try otherwise. It’s why people come to the Holistic Sanctuary.

Upon completion of a program at an ordinary rehabilitation center or detoxification clinic, newly sober patients often encounter something known as post acute withdrawal syndrome or PAWS–such a cute acronym for a terrible thing. Symptoms include depression, fatigue, anxiety, and cravings that often lead to relapse with their drug of choice. After a period of abuse, the body adjusts for the surplus of opiates by creating more and more receptor sites for the exogenous (not produced by the body) opiates. After quitting, those sites remain. Although inactive, they are still there, waiting to be filled. There is a natural reset button that fixes this.

The founder, Johnny Tabaie, aka “The Healer has formulated a dense, adaptable formula that serves this need as well as the many other varied needs of his patients. Through the Pouyan Method and its proper utilization of plant medicines, a component of the method and not its sole panacea, this seemingly inevitable part of recovery (PAWS) can be avoided. Then, by taking that concept even further and replenishing the body, cleansing it, and stripping it of all toxins, the patient can not only feel fine – since we know that ‘fine’ is never enough for an addict – but feel like they had entered a time machine and returned to their pre-addicted state. Sounds like a lot? or like it may be too difficult to get yourself back to an all-natural god body? The expert nursing team and truly sanctimonious facility at The Holistic Sanctuary makes these otherwise difficult lifestyle changes as easy as taking that nightly salt bath that they prepare for their patients.

Addicts are typically aware that they have damaged their livers, but will they make themselves multiple coffee enemas a day to repair them? Unlikely. An example of just another otherwise difficult recovery solution that is made easy at the Sanctuary, as the staff prepares up to five enemas a day for patients to do in their private suites. The reduction in liver enzymes is documented from beginning to end of the patients’ stay with comprehensive medical examinations.

Have you ever looked around an AA meeting, seen the overweight smokers clinging to their junk food and coffee and thought to yourself, ‘wait, how different is this? is this not substituting one addiction for another? who drew this line on which addictions are okay in recovery?’ The all-or-nothing policy at the Holistic Sanctuary rewrites the boundaries, building a wall that insulates its patients from all addictions, any and all harmful toxins. But wait, this is going to be too difficult? I do not think I could ever give up donuts, coffee, or cigarettes? Once again, through years of firsthand experience and alternative health research, Johnny Tabaie is able to make this complete change as easy and pain-free as possible. The slightest tweak to the daily IV fluids leaves patients craving-free. A brilliant tapered approach to Ibogaine detoxification, a withdrawal free benzodiazepine solution, and a steady reduction in SSRI doses are all tools in Johnny’s belt.

Health does come at a steep price tag, yet the cost is insignificant when you put it in perspective: Addiction often forces those afflicted to gamble with their lives everyday; it strips them of their soul, their morals, and leaves a hollowed shell of a person to haunt their loved ones. There is a new hope in the industry, one that those suffering from addiction desperately need: There exists a painless solution that rejuvenates the minds, bodies and souls of those lucky enough to discover(and afford) it. Many of the world’s high end centers offer luxurious splendor, but they utilize the same ordinary approach purported by Western medicine as the ‘gold standard’ – medication assisted treatment (MAT), a transfer of one addiction for another. Behind the facades of swimming pools and palm trees are programs of recovery devoid of substance, with eye-popping price tags seemingly generated solely for the purposes of exclusivity. This is not what you pay for at the Holistic Sanctuary. Along with the view, privacy and organic linens, Johnny Tabaie offers something other luxury treatment centers cannot, an alternative course toward total transformation – a new holistic recovery program.
