Addiction Treatment Information

Alcohol addiction treatment and drug rehab treatment is a complex issue that to be effective, must be individualized to each person. Over thirty years of research has shown that no single method of addiction treatment recovery can help persons addicted to different drugs or alcohol. Today more than ever many people have a prescription drug addiction because of the ease of acquiring prescription drugs. The ultimate purpose in drug addiction treatment is to help an individual stop taking and abusing their drug of choice, and then to maintain a drug-free lifestyle to be able to function properly in the home, at work, or in society at large.

Aspects to Addiction Treatment

At Cirque Lodge we take an individualized approach to addiction treatment. We find it most effective to treat the addiction specific to each one of our residents needs. Our individualized approach helps to enhance the overall aspects to addiction treatment at Cirque Lodge. Residents of our drug rehab program enjoy a genuine care and an effective addiction treatment program.

At Cirque Lodge, we believe that for an addiction treatment facility to be effective, it should be structured to the needs of each individual, and comprise the standard 12-step approach, including cognitive and behavioral group and individual therapy, family therapy (which is held every third week), and experiential therapy. Our experiential therapy includes outdoor group activities including hiking, snowshoeing, biking, river walking, helicopter tours and more. In addition, our equine therapy (working with horses) has been one of the most successful and heralded part of our treatment program.

Length of Treatment at Cirque Lodge

Treatment is typically based on a minimum 30-day stay. As such, Cirque Lodge has a warm home-like atmosphere to provide residents the best opportunity to overcome their addictions. However extended care services are available for individuals in additional need of further addiction treatment. In extended care we take a proactive approach to addiction treatment. Additional coping strategies are introduced to help prevent a relapse from occurring.

Family members often believe their loved one should be able to "just quit". Years of clinical research has shown that long-term drug use modifies brain functions, many of which persist for years after ceasing drug abuse. For this reason, we help family members understand the nature of the disease of drug addiction as part of our family week, so that they can more effectively help their loved one.

Benefits of Drug or Alcohol Treatment

Cost for an addiction treatment plan is usually one of the first questions raised prior to admission at Cirque Lodge. For more information regarding cost, please call our admissions department at 1-877-997-3422. Cost for therapy should be looked at like any other illness; however, in this instance the investment in treatment can far outweigh the cost of doing nothing. Research has shown that by treating drug or alcohol addiction, the savings including reduced drug-related crimes, justice system costs, and health care, are twelve times the cost of treatment.
