Residential rehabilitation for drug or alcohol addiction means a client lives at the facility while being treated, as opposed to outpatient treatment. The type of care delivered at a residential program in Era can vary, but traditionally many facilities offer group and individual counseling, therapy and psychotherapy, and many programs follow the 12-step approach of rehab. There are some residential programs that offer non-traditional or alternative services into their treatment methods, types of care that can add to normal rehab and can help with the recovery process greatly.
Some samples of different services one could expect are holistic rehab and holistic methods added into the treatment program. A drug-free detox that uses supplements and vitamins and even a sauna to sweat out toxins and drugs is a example of this. This type of alternative detox approach also prevents drugs and toxins from lingering in your system and creating possible problems in the future. Many centers use exercise including yoga, tai chi, acupuncture, meditation and massage therapy that can offer relief from mental stresses while also providing physical gains. There are residential programs, particularly for youth, that use out-of-doors therapy which can help clients get their self-confidence back and teach them the techniques they need to stay sober and be able to love life again.
