Speaker Sponsors

Chef Liz Scott sponsored by Prometa Treatment Program

Prometa The Prometa Treatment Program is a different way to treat addiction to alcohol, cocaine or methamphetamine. It's different because it integrates medical, nutritional and psychological aspects - all on an outpatient basis. It's designed to help relieve cravings and withdrawal, restore nutritional balance and improve mental clarity, so individuals can focus on recovery instead of addiction. PROMETA is an integrated, physician-based treatment that involves prescription medications and nutritional supplements administered in a proprietary manner. The treatment is followed by after care, such as individual and/or group therapy, which is considered a key part of recovery. Visit Prometa>>
