LAPWI is now very proud to be offering discrete and individualized pain medication detoxification programs.

As you may already know, treatment of chronic pain with opiate (narcotic) medications is not without its potential consequences. By consistently using these medications to alleviate your pain, both your mind and your body can develop a "dependence" that is difficult to control on your own. "Tolerance" is another issue that can result from continued use of narcotic medications. Perhaps you are aware of these issues, but are afraid of stopping these medications because of the horrible withdrawal symptoms you might experience.

Now there is a very quick and safe way to bring your body back to its natural balance without the painful effects of withdrawal, while continuing to feel the pain relief your body needs.

Suboxone (Buprenorphine HCI) is the first medication of its kind. It allows people to become less dependent on their opioid medications without having to endure the harmful side effects of opioid withdrawal. Suboxone also acts as an opioid free pain reliever, so that you don't have to be left without any pain relief either.

The process is simple. Make an appointment to come into our office, then meet with our licensed physician to determine the appropriate treatment for you. If we agree that Suboxone is right for you, you will begin to take the medication immediately, in our office. After just a few hours, you will be ready to go home or get back to work without the nasty feeling of withdrawal. We only ask that you check back in with us a few times over the weeks that follow.

Getting healthy again has never been so easy. For more information please read about Suboxone (http://www.suboxone.com/), or call to make an appointment for a consultation. We accept most major insurances, Medicare, and private pay.

We look forward to working with you!
