<p>At first, I was a little skeptical of the <a href="http://www.purdetox.com/sauna-detox-program" target="_blank">sauna program</a>. I did do some research and after reading the success stories from others (online) I thought I might just give it a try.</p>
<p>I have tried other methods in the past and I have never felt as good as I did when I finished the sauna program. In just about under 30 days, all the restlessness and pain from the last 4 years of opiate use has finally left my body.</p>
<p>I gained 20 pounds, have tons of energy and confidence, feel extremely healthy and I am ready to finally live my life again without feeling like a “prisoner” to my addiction. – N.D. Oct 2011</p>

<p><strong><em>Primum non nocere</em></strong> is a Latin phrase that means &#8220;<strong>First, do no harm</strong>&#8220;.</p>
<p><strong>Nonmaleficence</strong>, which derives from the above phrase, is one of the fundamental precepts of medical ethics all medical students are taught in medical school.  In other words…it may be better not to do something, or even to do nothing, than to risk causing more harm than good.</p>
<p>It reminds the physician and other health care providers that they must consider possible harm that any intervention might do. It is invoked when debating the use of an intervention that carries an obvious risk of harm but a less certain chance of benefit. The Hippocratic Oath includes the promise &#8220;to abstain from doing harm.&#8221;</p>
<p>Why are physicians and health care providers taught this? They have the power to do harm because we trust them.  If one has an accident, or become seriously ill, a patient’s life is in their hands.</p>
<p>However, there is BAD news.  There are doctors who are doing harm and in great volume. Psychiatrists are busy inventing new diseases at psychiatric conventions for which more prescription of psychiatric medications can be written.  Hand in glove with big Pharma and the FDA, the practice of medicine, can make you very, very sick, indeed.</p>
<p>The practice of writing prescriptions for psychiatric medications (which are nearly impossible to come off, on one’s own) has trickled down to the Internist, the Gynecologist, the ‘Family Doctor” and  “The Specialist.”  Pharmaceutical companies court them. Here comes the latest greatest drug over a catered lunch.  Next, samples of these drugs are being handed out to patients who believe in and trust their doctors.</p>
<p>The harm is to the patient, who may be uninformed regarding the prescription med they are being prescribed and ultimately becomes the victim of dependency, horrible side effects, and nightmarish withdrawals. In the cases of antidepressants, homicidal or suicidal tendencies can and have been unleashed.  The after affects are tragic.</p>
<p>Whether it is pain medication, medication for insomnia, medication for anxiety, or any medication for any ailment. It is extremely important to know what you are taking before you put that drug in your body.</p>
<p>Of course, not all physicians are bad and many are extremely ethical. Regardless, they are operating under the influence.  Those that are ethical resist. Yet, the powers of the drug companies and the FDA are both pervasive and persuasive.  After all, there are BILLIONS of dollars, deutschmarks, pounds, etc. involved. The true currency they deal in, is drugging the population.</p>
<p>Pür Detox can help as we shine in the area of prescription med detox and treatment. There is no such thing as a “Xanax deficiency”. So giving Xanax will not handle anything. It will only harm. The true reason behind why you are feeling that way can be found and handled. That’s what we do. And do pretty good.</p>

<p>This is the best experience in sauna I have ever had. So many things blew early that I previously thought I had run out in prior saunas. I was very willing and open minded during this experience to achieve the goal I went into the sauna with. Pat (Pur staff member) is the best Sauna Detox Specialist ever. I am so in-tune with my body and the drugs are not impinging on my mind as they were before. I feel alive and content. Thanks!</p>

<p>Wow! Before I came down here I was feeling hopeless about my situation and trapped. I didn&#8217;t feel that I could overcome the barriers of physical pain and trauma without medications. Obviously this closed the dooor to having a clean, happy life and inhibited my progress in achieving my goals. Despite the difficulties had to overcome with life still running and doing this program. I feel <span style="text-decoration: underline;">completely</span>&nbsp;different from when I arrived. My viewpoint on life, interpersonal relationships and my future have completely shifted. My reality on the effect that drugs have on a being spirituatlly and the devastation they create has increased 300%. I&#8217;m glad that I did the program with work study as it increased my confront and raised my necessity and discipline. Thanks to all who helped me through this. It is so good you are here.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Per  “Late Breaking News” from an E-lert site:</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>“A group of US representatives plan to introduce legislation that will legalize marijuana and allow states to legislate its use, pro-marijuana groups said Wednesday. The legislation would limit the federal government’s role in marijuana enforcement to cross-border or inter-state smuggling, and allow people to legally grow, use or sell marijuana in states where it is legal. The bill, which is expected to be introduced on Thursday by Republican Representative Ron Paul and Democratic Representative Barney Frank, would be the first ever legislation designed to end the federal ban on marijuana.”</p>
<p>Of course, this would generate revenue for the federal government, as there is nothing for sale for which they do not collect taxes.  With the economy in the tank, we need to refill the coffers and what better way then to introduce a new product, already surveyed and desired by many.</p>
<p>But, what are the consequences of this? Smoking marijuana is part of our culture? It being as readily available as alcohol? Another source of revenue? From more DUI’s, that’s for sure.</p>
<p>The film “Reefer Madness” has become a cult classic and is viewed by users of pot as hilarious.  However, there was a young girl from the south side of Chicago who started smoking marijuana which led to trying psychedelics, then to speed, then to cocaine, other psychedelics, then to hard core drug experimentation-heroin.</p>
<p>Within a matter of a few years, many of her former high school friends were full blown heroin addicts and at least three died of overdoses.  At age nineteen, she left her hometown and moved to West Palm Beach  to get away from drugs, only to find the same scene she had tried to escape from. Only now, she fell in with cocaine dealers.  By the time she was twenty-five, clearly, she wouldn’t make it to thirty if she did not end drug use-‘hobnobbing’ with the lowest common denominator of society in the subterranean world of illegal hard drugs. It wasn’t glamorous, especially when one acquaintance asked her for a ride and once she had agreed, he got into the car and put his concealed 45-caliber pistol under the seat.  She got him to his destination fast and soon changed her own course in life.</p>
<p>Marijuana is a mind-altering drug, while it initially causes euphoria,  it makes one slower, less productive, can cause paranoia, slurred speech and the all-inclusive munchies. As if obesity isn’t already a problem in this country. While these observations are not true for everyone- they are for most.</p>
<p>If the use of Marijuana has led to other drug use for you and you feel you need help, please contact us and we can see what we can do in order to help you in life and get you into a marijuana drug detox and rehab facility.</p>

<p>In completing the P&uuml;r Program I have accomplished and received the thing that I sought and expected from the process. I have no physical cravings and my mental (cravings) are few and controlled. I have also gained from the program things I did not expect such as, sleeping 6 hours plus a night, eating three meals a day and gaining an overall feeling of supporting my body and mind. In the end, this program has surpassed my initial expectations.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Valium made it’s way into to the suburban home to relieve stress of the modern housewife in the 1960s.  Its original purpose was to treat seizures, relax muscles and be used in preparation for surgeries.  Oh and by the way, it relieved anxiety and we are off!</p>
<p>Benzos are one of the most addictive drugs ever invented.  The Rolling Stones introduced the scene to pop culture in 1966 with their song “Mother’s Little Helper.”</p>
<p>Compared to Valium, there are stronger and stronger permutations of Benzodiazepines, such as Ativan, Centrax, Dalmane, Doral, Halcion, Lexaton, Prosom, Restoril, Serepax, Klonipin and Zanax.</p>
<p>Now these are under the jurisdiction of the psychiatrist, or MD whose stock in trade is drugs, drugs and more drugs. The daily lunches, or perks from that hot pharmaceutical representative who passes out samples of the latest Benzo doesn’t hurt either as Big Pharma rakes in $21 billion from drug sales.</p>
<p>In Aldous Huxley’s book “Brave New World,” published in 1932, the plot line is as follows:  To maintain the World State&#8217;s <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_Economy">Command Economy</a> for the indefinite future, all citizens are conditioned from birth to value consumption …  the need for <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcendence_%28philosophy%29" target="_blank">transcendence</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solitude" target="_blank">solitude</a> and spiritual <a href="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/communion" target="_blank">communion</a> is addressed with the ubiquitous availability and universally endorsed consumption of the drug <em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soma" target="_blank">soma</a></em>. (Soma is in fact a actual sedative drug). In Huxley’s book, soma is a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallucinogen" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3366ff;">hallucinogen</span></a> that takes users on enjoyable, hangover-free holidays…, Sound familiar?</p>
<p>Huxley’s vision has come to pass, and the Rolling Stones echoed the advent of a drug-dazed population.</p>
<p>This is no joke or philosophical exercise. The truth is if you have become dependent on <a href="http://www.purdetox.com/medical-detox-program/benzodiazepines-anti-anxiety-drugs" target="_blank">Benzodiazepines</a>, you need help.  The withdrawal symptoms can be severe, even leading to seizures, if  stopped abruptly.  Thus it needs to be done under the care of a skilled medical physician that has the intention of helping you, not keeping you drugged.</p>
<p>If you or a loved one have become dependent on a Benzodiazepine call <a href="http://www.purdetox.com/" target="_blank">Pür Detox</a> now for information on how we can help.</p>
