What the program's websites say
- opiates.com, the program's main site, states in its footer: "The Waismann Method closed in 2025." The top of the page says the site does not provide treatment, and the text says the program operated from 1998 until 2025. opiates.com
- rapiddetox.com states: "we no longer offer treatment" and "We are not a treatment provider and do not offer clinical services." The copyright is held by Seven Management Services, Inc. rapiddetox.com
- Domus Retreat, the program's post-procedure residence in Orange County, states that after 20 years it has permanently closed. Domus Retreat page

Directories that still list it as taking patients
As of October 20, 2026, the Waismann Method appeared as an active program on rehab.com (with a price of $19,000 to $24,800), rehabs.org, the NAATP directory, choosehelp.com and Psychology Today. If you found the program through one of those listings, the listing is out of date.
Two different things carry the Waismann name
The Waismann Method was a sedation-assisted detox program in California, operated by Seven Management Services, Inc., with Michael H. Lowenstein, MD as medical director and articles reviewed by Clare Waismann. It closed in 2025.
ANR, Accelerated Neuro-Regulation, was developed by Dr. Andre Waismann and is offered by ANR Clinic in Florida, which is operating. ANR Clinic describes its treatment as something other than a detox: the stated aim is to treat the dependency itself during sedation in a hospital ICU, with naltrexone tablets afterwards.
