Burning Tree Programs Adds Neurofeedback Therapy to Relapse Prevention Curriculum

Kaufman, TX (PRWEB) May 16, 2007

Burning Tree Programs (www.burningtree.com) is excited to begin treating clients with Neurofeedback Therapy in 2007. Neurofeedback Therapy results in very low relapse rates when combined with conventional treatments. This is, in part, due to the fact that it seems to function as a “mental antabuse.” There have been several studies showing that Neurofeedback training appears to have potential for decreasing alcohol/drug craving and aids in relapse prevention.

Many practitioners in the chemical dependency field have demonstrated that intensive Neurofeedback-based treatment has exerted a positive influence on a number of factors which contribute to chemical dependency including stress levels, depressive personality traits, post traumatic stress disorder and chronic relapses.

Additionally, studies have shown that Neurofeedback training can increase the retention of clients in alcohol/drug treatment programs while decreasing the relapse rate whereas traditional interventions for chemical dependency often result in high attrition and release rates.

Neurofeedback Therapy will be provided to our clients by Mindy Fritz, MS. “I am very excited about the opportunity this innovative treatment will provide for our clients and feel that it will add to their success in overcoming addiction,” states Fritz.

Burning Tree Programs has two drug and alcohol rehab treatment facilities located in Texas and is licensed by the Texas Department of State Health Services. Our admissions department may be reached at 866-287-2877.
