Substance abuse can affect every part of your life, from physical and mental health to work, relationships, and daily stability. At Camelback Integrated Health and Wellness, we provide medication assisted treatment in Phoenix, AZ, for people struggling with substance use disorders, including opioid use disorder and alcohol use disorder.
A common misconception is that medication assisted treatment replaces one drug with another. In reality, MAT uses FDA-approved medications alongside behavioral therapy, counseling, and ongoing clinical support to help reduce cravings, manage withdrawal symptoms, and support long-term recovery. Major health authorities clinically validate this integrated method as a primary path to recovery and serve as a foundational pillar of care for opioid and alcohol use disorders.

Medication Treatment Information
A common question or concern about MAT therapy is how a medication can help to recover from addictions to other, harmful medications. We use FDA-approved medications in safe doses that actually work to target the receptors in your brain that experience pleasure from drugs and alcohol. In doing so, Camelback Medication Assisted Therapy Phoenix is able to weaken the perceived benefits of drug and alcohol use, which ultimately lessens the cravings and the effects of the substances themselves. Our expert team works with you to manage your personalized medication assisted treatment program to monitor progress and help you through every step of your MAT recovery.
