Holistic Addiction Treatment

Sauna use has been shown to provide multiple physical and mental health benefits. In addition to promoting relaxation, using a sauna can improve circulation and cardiovascular health, soothe sore muscles, flush toxins and lactic acid from the system, boost the immune system, and even reduce insomnia. Because infrared saunas use light to heat up the body, instead of heating the air inside the sauna, they can be used at lower temperatures while producing the same health benefits and are typically less humid than traditional saunas. Even 10-15 minutes of sauna use can lead to changes in mood and physical comfort.

Acupuncture has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years, and has more recently become popular in the West as a method of healing, relaxation and pain management. During acupuncture, a trained practitioner will insert very thin needles into specific pressure points or areas of the body known to relieve tension. When used as part of holistic treatment for substance abuse, acupuncture can reduce cravings, ease withdrawal symptoms, and help regulate emotions and sleep.

Our state of the art addiction treatment facility features a fitness area where clients can maintain their exercise routines or create new healthy habits around fitness. Exercise is one of the most important aspects of alcohol and drug addiction recovery for many individuals. It releases endorphins that alleviate tension, reduce pain and promote relaxation. Maintaining a workout schedule can also provide a sense of structure, purpose, and accountability for those who are newly sober.

Breathing is the essence of life itself. Facilitated breathwork teaches you how to breathe properly, as well as offering various breathing techniques. Breathwork recalibrates the energetic field and purges stuck emotions from the body. The breathe deeply relaxes the physical body and quiets the mind, peeling back the layers of pain and self-judgement. Breathwork is a shortcut on the path of healing, and the benefits can be experienced immediately. Breathing activates and opens your channels of creativity, reminding you or helping get you closer to your purpose. 

Yoga and meditation are also ancient practices that have become more mainstream because of their powerful ability to promote inner peace and overall health.

Our on-site chef prepares daily nutritious meals that incorporate a holistic approach to food and its positive effects on the human body and mind. It is important for individuals to maintain a healthy diet during detox and addiction treatment as this will help regulate hormones, blood sugar levels, and nutrition to support a quick and effective recovery.

Massage therapy can be extremely beneficial for individuals undergoing addiction treatment. In addition to relieving muscle tension and some of the physical symptoms of withdrawal, it also releases chemicals such as oxytocin and dopamine. These natural hormones can help an individual feel more peaceful, happy, and connected. Massage services are available to clients in both our detox and clinical assessment programs and are included in the cost of treatment.
