Neuroreceptor Repair and Regeneration
NRR consists of an intravenous solution of amino acids (the building blocks that make up all the proteins in our bodies) which rebuilds the damaged areas of the brain. You will receive the drip for four hours during the first three days, and two hours per day thereafter. (Each individual is different, so this may be modified at any time.)
This combination of brain nutrients, vitamins, minerals and amino acids helps eliminate cravings and repairs the brain. It is gentle, long-lasting, and repatterns the brain to help reduce distressing emotions.
NAD stands for 'nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide', which is the chemical term for a molecule that reacts with oxygen in the mitochondria in every cell of your body in order to create energy so you can move, breathe, pump blood, digest food, think, and generally, live your life.
Lack of this essential cellular fuel is now recognized as a key feature of chronic fatigue, apathy, depression, anxiety, alcohol and drug addiction, weak immune system (infections and cancer), muscle pain and weakness, headaches, memory disturbance, sleep problems, focus and concentration defects and other chronic diseases. NAD deficiency may be an unrecognized epidemic of cellular disease.
How do you treat NAD deficiency?
First of all NAD is in many of the foods that we eat, but it is mostly lost in cooking and what little remains is broken down by the acid in our stomachs.
For patients with severe NAD deficiencies, such as alcoholics or drug addicts, the intravenous form has been shown to be highly effective, usually eliminating the physical craving within three or four days and then producing a clarity of thinking with continued daily IV therapy. The cognitive and emotional improvement is likely due to increased production of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, noradrenalin and dopamine. Numerous studies have shown that IV NAD is highly beneficial for drug addicted patients, including those dependent upon benzodiazepine medications like Valium, Librium, Clonazapem, and Klonopin.
NAD therapy offers a foundational treatment that promotes health throughout the body.
Suppositories are solid dosage forms that are typically inserted into the rectum. As soon as you insert, it goes through the blood brain barrier for instant absorption, giving maximum bio-availability to the body and brain.
NAD suppositories work in conjunction with the NAD IV and gives a higher dose of NAD, delivered in a gentler method than increasing the dosage of the IV.
Agora suppositories are safe, made of natural products, and offer a highly effective method to support breaking free of alcohol and drug dependency.

Guilt can play an important role in lack of successful recovery. Drugs and alcohol are often used as a solution to relieve discomfort around not being able to resolve issues which come up in our lives. Then we feel guilty about our inability to solve the problem, and then we have further guilt around using drugs or alcohol to avoid dealing with it. This leads to great stress and our lives may start to spiral out of control.
Energy Psychology sessions addresses guilt and other issues, enabling you to move forward in a positive way and to let go of old issues.
30 - 45 minute Infrared Sauna which starts the detoxification process. Your day will begin with this for the first 10 days of the program.
This is a gentle process of detoxification which eliminates toxins and allows stored drug and alcohol byproducts and metabolites to leave the body. Saunas and steam baths have been used for centuries by many world cultures to induce detoxification.
Deeply relaxing and restorative, massage further assists in the detoxification process by helping eliminate stored toxins from the body, while releasing physical pain and withheld emotional stress, often locked in muscles and tissues.
Touch is the core ingredient of massage and also combines science and art. Practitioners learn specific techniques for massage and use their sense of touch to determine the right amount of pressure to apply to each person and locate areas of tension and other soft-tissue problems. Touch also conveys a sense of caring, an important component in the healing relationship.
Massage improves circulation, which increases blood flow, bringing fresh oxygen to body tissues. This can assist the elimination of waste products, speed healing after injury, and enhance recovery from disease.
