National Opioid Crisis Expert, Dynamic Speaker And Author, Dr. John Rosa Tells Readers America Has Been Drugged And Duped

Dr. John P. Rosa, opioid crisis expert, author and dynamic speaker, gives readers a remarkable and shocking statistic that shows how Americans have been duped into thinking a highly addictive drug can cure pain and suffering.

ROCKVILLE, MD. March 18, 2019: Dr. John Rosa, dynamic speaker, national opioid crises expert, and co-author of The Recipe for Success with Jack Canfield, posted a new blog on his website entitled, “America Has Been Duped Into Believing Pills Can Cure Pain And Suffering.” Dr. Rosa turns his attention and guides his readers to the source of the duping.

Dr. Rosa states, “When I do speaking engagements, I like to grab my audience’s attention with a startling fact.” He adds, “The sad thing is that the same startling fact has been the same during all the years I’ve been traveling and speaking to corporations, organizations and groups.”

According to Dr. Rosa, the shocking fact is, “The U.S. is roughly 5% of the world population, yet we consume 90% of all the opioids in the world.”

“Think about that,” says Dr. Rosa. He adds, “This fact screams to me that, 1. The rest of the world has no pain, or 2. We’ve been duped. That’s right. We’ve been duped by a medical community that wants everyone to believe that pain can be relieved by taking a pill.”

“But, what about the rest of the world?” He asks, “Why aren’t they suffering?” He concludes, “They aren’t suffering because they do not turn to drugs for pain relief. They turn to the methods that have been used for thousands of years: acupuncture, diet, herbs, massage and other methods that our society considers “alternative”.” As Dr. Rosa points out, “The truth is that modern medicine is truly “alternative.” Traditional methods of healing have been suppressed and we as a society have been duped.”

Opioid Crisis Expert and Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics, Dr. John Rosa Questions The Benefits Of Seeing Addicts Overdosing On TV News And Social Media

Dr. John P. Rosa, opioid crisis expert and owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics, talks about how law enforcement agents as well as complete strangers are capturing overdoses on cameras and posting to social media and news stations and wonders whether the effects are doing anything to bring the epidemic to an end.

ROCKVILLE, MD. March 4, 2019: Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics and opioid crises expert, Dr. John Rosa, posted a new article on his website entitled, “The Opioid Crisis Goes Live On TV And Social Media,” in which Dr. Rosa questions whether this new trend is helping or hurting the opioid crisis.

Dr. Rosa states that, “More and more law enforcement offices throughout the country are wearing body cameras and capturing people overdosing live.” He continues adding, “These videos are ending up on local as well as national news shows and are going viral on social media. For some, this publicity comes as a wake-up call. – maybe not so welcome, but a wake-up call nonetheless.” “For others,” says Dr. Rosa, “this kind of unexpected publicity presents just another harsh episode in an already untenable life. But, with the opioid crisis continuing to grow and the prevalence of video equipped smart phones and the popularity of social media, “ he says, “we can expect the coverage and the humiliation to continue.”

“Imagine seeing your mom or dad, your brother or sister, your son or daughter or someone you know and love on the evening news, passed on, overdosed and possibly even dying right before your eyes,” says Dr. Rosa. He adds, “Imagine not knowing and finding out this way that your loved one is doing drugs. That is the case in some instances. Imagine seeing yourself this way.”

Dr. Rosa talks about a series in The New York Times, called Hooked In America. Dr. Rosa says in the article, “it was stated that not only law enforcement but also “strangers with cameras have started posting raw, uncensored images of drug users passed out with needles in their arms and babies in the back seats of their cars The videos rack up millions of views and unleash avalanches of outrage.””

According to Dr. Rosa, “Without question public humiliation has its effect on the addicted exposed on TV and/or social media. But, whether the effect is positive or not is the debate. By filming the overdoses and sending them to the news media, police departments say they are simply trying to reveal the brutal reality of what they see every day.” Dr. Rosa also states, “This is all wrong and only fuels the flames of stigma. Most people will view these videos and say, “look at what these people are doing to themselves.” My dream with every fiber of my heart and soul is to have people see such videos and say, “Look at what we did to you all.”

Opioid Crisis Expert and Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics, Dr. John Rosa Encourages Those Experiencing Pain To Insist On Drug-Free Pain Prescriptions

Dr. John P. Rosa, opioid crisis expert and owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics, reminds readers that the opioid crisis is not slowing down and strongly urges those in pain to ask their doctors to prescribe non-drug methods for pain relief.

ROCKVILLE, MD. February 21, 2019: Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics and opioid crises expert, Dr. John Rosa, posted a new blog on his website entitled, “Ask For A Drug-Free Prescription For Pain Relief,” in which Dr. Rosa tells readers there’s only one way to end to opioid epidemic.

Dr. Rosa points out the fact that, “No one wants to live with chronic pain.” He emphasizes, “The costs are too great. From sleeplessness to irritability to interfering with one’s work, pain can wreak havoc.” He continues, “But, taking a doctor prescribed pill that relieves pain often leads to even more detrimental effects.”

“The pills doctors prescribe for pain relief are killing people every single day,” says Dr. Rosa. He adds, “They are causing otherwise normal, law-abiding people to become drug dependent. In order to keep up with built up tolerance to drug levels, we see people turn to lying and stealing to afford the addiction.”

As Dr. Rosa reminds readers, “This country is in the midst of an opioid epidemic that shows no signs of slowing down. The only way it can be stopped is if people become aware of the problem and refuse to accept prescriptions for pain relief that come in pill form.” “Instead,” he sas, “insist that your doctor give you a drug-free prescription for pain relief.”

Opioid Crisis Expert and Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics, Dr. John Rosa Turns His Attention To The Free Rein Pharmaceuticals Have To Market Opioids

Dr. John P. Rosa, opioid crisis expert and owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics, talks about how despite the fact that more bodies are piling up in areas where big pharma companies aggressively market opioids that there is still no federally imposed limits on their marketing.

ROCKVILLE, MD. February 11, 2019: Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics and opioid crises expert, Dr. John Rosa, posted a new article on his website entitled, “No Federal Limits To Marketing Opioids Gives Pharma Companies Free Rein,” in which Dr. Rosa maintains that the addiction to wealth and power appears to be more important than human lives.

Dr. Rosa states, “The pharmaceutical companies that make opioids are given free rein to market their drugs wherever they please despite the fact that this country is experiencing a tragic opioid epidemic.” He continues explaining, “The reason I bring this up is that a new study has shown that the areas of our country hardest hit by the opioid epidemic are the exact regions where pharmaceutical companies marketed prescription opioids.”

“According to the study,” says Dr. Rosa, “In one county, doctors received about 31 times the national average of direct marketing from pharmaceutical companies between 2013 and 2015, even as the opioid epidemic claimed lives in the same area.” He adds, “In addition the study found that, “increases in marketing were associated with higher prescribing and a higher rate of overdoses from prescription opioids.” The new research was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association’s Network Open journal (Jama).”

As Dr. Rosa sees it, “The addiction to wealth and power is allowed to proliferate despite the deadly and tragic results.” He emphasizes, “This all-consuming addiction to greed is profoundly affecting the health of our country, yet it is allowed to continue without restraints.”

“It is painfully obvious,” says Dr. Rosa, “that the desire for wealth and power supersedes the desire to preserve lives.” He validates his statement saying, “To prove this, “the recent study found an association between pharmaceutical company marketing of opioids and higher rates of death from opioid overdoses one year later. Researchers examined more than $40m in drug company marketing, directed at 67,500 physicians across more than 2,200 counties nationally between August 2013 and December 2015.”

Opioid Crisis Expert and Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics, Dr. John Rosa Reveals His Prediction For Opioid Deaths Over Holidays Was Fulfilled

Dr. John P. Rosa, opioid crisis expert and owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics, tells readers predicting opioid deaths is too easy in the midst of an epidemic and that the holidays always exacerbates the use of drugs because of excessive stress.

ROCKVILLE, MD. February 4, 2019: Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics and opioid crises expert, Dr. John Rosa, posted a new blog on his website entitled, “As Predicted For Some People The Holidays Were Not Happy,” in which Dr. Rosa talks about how the excessive stress of the holidays increases the likelihood of drug overdoses.

“Here we are on the other side of another holiday season,” writes Dr. Rosa. He continues adding, “Typically, the holiday season is filled with joy, excitement, the happy anticipation of spending time with friends, family and loved ones. However, for some people, the holidays are filled with dread.”

Dr. Rosa points out, “It is well known that excessive stress, especially during the holidays, can trigger negative behavior including the use of drugs and overdose. This is one reason that the use of drugs is exacerbated during the holidays and why so many people in recovery programs relapse during this time.”

According to Dr. Rosa, “As I predicted in my December blog, the holidays proved to be heartbreaking for too many people due to opioid overdose deaths. Due to the opioid epidemic, these deaths are too easy to predict.” He adds, “The pain of losing a loved one to opioid addiction is horrendous and cannot be healed.”

Opioid Crisis Expert and Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics, Dr. John Rosa Explains That Drugs Change The Brain Making Quitting Very Difficult

Dr. John P. Rosa, opioid crisis expert and owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics, spreads understanding about the opioid addiction epidemic in hopes of getting more people to care enough to help curtail the growing number of related deaths.

ROCKVILLE, MD. January 7, 2019: Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics and opioid crises expert, Dr. John Rosa, posted a new article on his website entitled, “Lack Of Understanding About Addiction Leads To Not Caring.” Dr. Rosa is clearly on a mission to help bring understanding to a growing problem.

Dr. Rosa writes, “Many people don’t understand why or how other people become addicted to drugs—or to anything for that matter.” He adds, “Addiction is addiction whether it is perceived as a positive or negative addiction. Most people think those who are addicted to drugs and or alcohol lack moral principles. They think those souls should exercise greater will power and that stopping is just a matter or choosing.”

“If anyone has been addicted to over-eating or consuming chocolate or addicted to work at the expense of their families and friends are engaged in addictive behavior,” states Dr. Rosa, adding. “And all addiction starts in the brain.”

According to Dr. Rosa, “Drugs actually change the brain in ways that makes quitting difficult.” He elaborates further, “Drug addiction is a complex disease and more often than not, quitting – even for those who really want to quit – takes more than good intentions. Once an addiction has taken hold, just saying no is rarely good enough.”

Dr. Rosa says that, “According to the National Institute of Drug Abuse, “Addiction is a chronic disease characterized by drug seeking and use that is compulsive, or difficult to control, despite harmful consequences. The initial decision to take drugs is voluntary for most people, but repeated drug use can lead to brain changes that challenge an addicted person’s self-control and interfere with their ability to resist intense urges to take drugs. These brain changes can be persistent, which is why drug addiction is considered a “relapsing” disease—people in recovery from drug use disorders are at increased risk for returning to drug use even after years of not taking the drug.”

Opioid Crisis Expert and Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics, Dr. John Rosa Talks About Being Present When The President Signed New Opioid Prevention Legislation

Dr. John P. Rosa, opioid crisis expert and owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics, gives an overview of some of the benefits of the sweeping legislative package to curb the opioid crisis signed by the President.

ROCKVILLE, MD. November 15, 2018: Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics and opioid crises expert, Dr. John Rosa, posted a new article on his website entitled, “New Legislation Aims To Curb Opioid Crisis.” Dr. Rosa reports on his presence at the President’s signing of new legislation to curb the opioid crisis.

Dr. Rosa writes, “On Wednesday, October 24, I had the honor of being present when the President signed into law a sweeping legislative package that lawmakers and public health experts alike believe will help curb the growing opioid crisis in the United States.” He continued, “In addition, my work on the opioid crisis was recognized by the White House during the signing ceremony. I was also encouraged to continue my work by the Director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy, James Carrol, Chair of the Opioid and Drug Abuse Commission, Governor Chris Christie and Counselor to the President, Kellyanne Conway. They each generously offered their help on a major new project I am currently working on.”

“It is good to know,” says Dr. Rosa, “that the new legislative package directs funding to federal agencies and individual states to make greater access to addiction treatment a priority.” He elaborates, “In addition, the new legislation sets in place interventions to help mitigate the crisis, like preventing over-prescription and training law enforcement to intercept shipments, including the deadly and highly addictive drug fentanyl, at U.S. borders.”

“The work I am engaged in and promoting,” writes Dr. Rosa, “involves education in the use of non-pharmacological strategies to decrease pain, increase mobility, and limit the use of narcotic medications. This holistic approach includes such strategies as early intervention with good judicious integrative medicine. Integrative approaches include chiropractic care, acupuncture, diet/nutrition evaluation and behavioral therapies.”

According to Dr. Rosa, “Based on models that have proven successful in private practice throughout the country, The Department of Health and Human Services will now oversee a grant program to expand the use of “comprehensive recovery centers.” The programs include job training, mental health services and housing alongside addiction treatment.”
