What is Neurotransmitter Restoration or Amino Acid IV Therapy?
Increasing numbers of physicians are utilizing Intravenous (IV) Therapy as part of their approach to
help patients restore and/or maintain their health. Amino Acid IV Therapy also called
Neurotransmitter Restoration (NTR,) is a safe all-natural approach to treating the imbalance of
chemicals in the brain caused by the addictive use of any substances that we crave. Addiction to
any drug or combination of drugs and/or other substances, responds equally well to Amino Acid IV
Therapy.
Research has revealed that physical cravings are caused by an imbalance of neurotransmitters,
primarily in the reward centers of the brain. These cravings and urges are major diagnostic indicators
of chemical dependency. This is the same imbalance that causes uncomfortable and sometimes life-
threatening withdrawal effects by discontinuing use of the addiction stimuli.
Using Amino Acid IV Therapy neural receptors, which have been overly stimulated, are returned to
their original state. This results in a safe and comfortable detoxification and the complete elimination
of physical dependencies on addictive substances.
Amino Acid IV Therapy was first developed by Dr. William Hitt, an award-winning physician and
pioneering scientist, in the mid 1980s after a lifetime of research involving amino acids. In its initial
clinical application, approximately 3000 patients were treated using NTR with a documented recovery
rate three years after treatment of 70%. This is a 200%-700% increase in successful treatment over
current, treatment programs.
Treatment begins with a consultation with our physicians to recreate a thorough drug history. The
treatment relies on the accuracy of each patient’s report of the substances used in their lifetime.
The complete substance history is necessary to address the chemical changes made in the brain. If
this is incomplete then the treatment will not be satisfactory. In addition, if any mood-altering
substances are used after the treatment, the chemical balance of the brain will be altered and the
substance cravings will return. Habits take 21 days to change. We use amino acid supplements to help
alleviate anxiety or cravings that may come with this change. Based upon this information, the
physicians determine what amino acids will re-balance the brain chemicals or “neurotransmitters” to
their original state. Amino acids and vitamins are individually formulated for each patient based on the
substances that they have ever used. The formulations are then administered intravenously, under
the supervision of licensed physicians and staff, each day for ten days.
Most patients report no discomfort. Some patients experience mild stomach upset
and/or diarrhea during the first 24 hours and no patients have reported significant
pain or discomfort.
We offer additional IV treatments to continue addressing the physical dependency
or cravings as needed. However, it is important to understand that Amino Acid IV
Therapy eliminates physiologically based drug cravings and will have little impact
upon the emotional or psychological components. Psychological treatment is
recommended for addressing persistent thinking and feeling patterns.
Our program in Hawaii works closely with Dr. William Hitt’s program.
