Waismann Method – USA’s Leading Medical Accelerated Opioid Detox Program
For over 26 years, Waismann Method® has been the gold standard for opioid detoxification, operating exclusively in Southern California since 1998. Unlike other programs with multiple locations or outpatient facilities, our treatment is conducted in a full-service, accredited hospital under the care of a quadruple board-certified physician.
Thousands of patients from Minnesota and across the world have traveled to us because we provide the safest, most effective medical opioid detox. Our goal is to eliminate withdrawal symptoms in the most comfortable and medically responsible manner, allowing patients to regain their health and move forward with their lives.
The Growing Need for Rapid Detox in Minnesota
Minnesota, like much of the United States, has been deeply affected by the opioid crisis. From prescription painkillers like OxyContin, Vicodin, and fentanyl to illicit opioids like heroin, opioid dependence has led to rising overdose rates, emergency room visits, and treatment admissions across the state.
Many individuals struggling with opioid dependence initially received painkillers for legitimate medical reasons. However, prolonged use can lead to tolerance, dependence, and withdrawal symptoms, making it incredibly difficult to stop without professional intervention.
Opioid withdrawal symptoms may include:
✔ Severe anxiety and restlessness
✔ Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea
✔ Muscle aches and body pain
✔ Insomnia and extreme fatigue
✔ Sweating and chills
✔ Intense cravings for opioids
The fear of withdrawal often prevents people from seeking help, trapping them in a cycle of dependence. However, withdrawal does not have to be prolonged or unbearable. Waismann Method®’s rapid detox safely and effectively eliminates withdrawal while restoring physiological balance.
What Makes Waismann Method® Different from Other Opioid Detox Under Anesthesia Programs?
Unlike many detox centers that perform one-size-fits-all treatments, Waismann Method Rapid Detox provides personalized, hospital-based opioid detox that is tailored to the patient’s individual health needs.
Key Advantages of Waismann Method Rapid Detox:
✔ Full-Service, Accredited Hospital Care – Our treatment is performed in a private ICU unit within a JCAHO-accredited hospital, ensuring maximum safety and access to comprehensive medical resources.
✔ Led by a Quadruple Board-Certified Physician – Dr. Michael H. Lowenstein is one of the most experienced rapid detox physicians in the world, with over two decades of expertise in opioid detoxification and anesthesia-assisted withdrawal management.
✔ Minimized Withdrawal Discomfort – Our rapid detox under sedation process helps patients bypass the most intense withdrawal symptoms while under medical supervision.
✔ Multiple Detox Options – In addition to rapid detox, we offer medically assisted opioid detox protocols tailored to each patient’s medical history and level of opioid dependence.
✔ No Need for Hotels or Loved Ones to Care for You – Unlike other detox centers that discharge patients to hotel rooms, placing the burden of care on family members, we provide professional post-detox support at Domus Retreat. This ensures that patients receive the medical and emotional care they need, rather than shifting responsibility onto untrained loved ones. We believe your well-being is our responsibility—not something to be handed off the moment detox is complete.
✔ Private Recovery Support – After detox, patients transition to Domus Retreat, where they receive personalized care, emotional support, and professional guidance for a smoother, safer adjustment period.
Unlike traditional rehab centers or outpatient detox programs, we do not rely on replacement opioids like Suboxone or methadone. Our goal is complete opioid detoxification so patients can regain control over their lives without unnecessary long-term medication dependency.
How Does Rapid Detox Work?
Our treatment process is designed to be as safe, effective, and comfortable as possible while ensuring a complete detox from opioids in a medically controlled environment.
Step 1: Comprehensive Medical Evaluation
Patients undergo a thorough medical assessment, including lab tests, cardiac evaluations, and pre-detox stabilization, to determine the safest and most effective detox plan.
Step 2: Rapid Detox Under Sedation
On the second day, detox is performed in a private ICU unit under anesthesia-assisted sedation. During this process:
- The body is medically cleansed of opioids.
- Withdrawal symptoms occur while the patient is sedated, minimizing discomfort.
- Vital signs and overall health are closely monitored throughout the procedure.
Step 3: Recovery at Domus Retreat
After detox, patients transition to Domus Retreat, a private recovery center where they receive:
✔ Around the clock supportive care
✔ Emotional and physiological stabilization
✔ Nutritional support and physical therapy
✔ Professional counseling and stress management tools
This additional recovery period helps patients rebuild their strength and regain emotional balance, significantly improving long-term success rates.

Waismann Method® provides treatment for individuals struggling with dependence on:
✔ Prescription opioids (OxyContin, Percocet, Vicodin, Dilaudid, fentanyl, tramadol)
✔ Illicit opioids (heroin, illicit fentanyl)

Every patient is evaluated individually to determine the safest and most effective detox protocol.
