There are millions of people throughout the world who have a drinking problem, or can be classified as alcoholic. Sadly, very few of these individuals seek out treatment help for their problems. With all the substances of abuse and the growing prescription drug problems in the United States, alcohol related issues still far outweigh these other struggles. There is a stigma with addiction, but more with alcoholics than other types of addiction. The alcoholic does not view their drinking as a problem. They feel completely normal and in control. However, to the sober eye, the alcoholic just looks and acts drunk. This stigma also results in resistance when the drinking is challenged. Alcoholics can go to great lengths to protect their drinking behavior.
Alcoholism is a chemical dependency to liquor. The individual must have alcohol within their body at all times to maintain normal function. Without it, the body can experience withdrawal and different types of physical and emotional maladies. The severity of these withdrawals can be life threatening to some.

When it is alcoholism, the effective course of action is to properly detoxify the individual, so withdrawal symptoms are treated by a professional. This should be followed with an alcohol addiction treatment program to arrest and treat the disease.
Addiction Treatment Program for the Alcoholic
At Cirque Lodge, we begin with an addiction treatment program for the alcoholic. A program is tailored to meet their needs with recovery elements. While each resident of our drug rehab or alcohol treatment facility is struggling with a form of addiction, their vulnerabilities can be very distinct. An individualized
drug rehab and addiction treatment program provides specific care and therapy for these vulnerabilities. Treatment is provided to take a deeper look into the underlying struggles and to properly put the disease of alcoholism into remission. A personalized program is ever changing according to the progress of the individual and is continually providing different aspects of recovery treatment and support.
The alcohol addiction treatment program at Cirque Lodge is founded on the 12-step program. It is the modality and approach to recovery found within Alcoholics Anonymous. When in alcohol rehab at Cirque Lodge, the individual begins this recovery process. They are surrounded by caring support and proper clinical treatments along the way. Cirque uses a unique program in beginning the 12-steps of recovery. The mountain and nature are utilized in establishing connections to a higher power and experiencing vital spiritual changes. After alcohol rehab is completed, the 12-step recovery effort continues with the assistance of the 12-step community and working with a sponsor. There is also an
addiction treatment program for the family as well.
Experiential Learning in Alcohol Addiction Treatment
The use of mountains and nature is found through Cirque's experiential program. Along with the traditional and clinical aspects to this alcohol treatment facility, experiential work is used to drive home many points of the recovery process. The Cirque Lodge facilities and local mountains provide a number of unique venues for experiential learning. There's a ropes course, a horse arena and even a private helicopter all dedicated for alcohol recovery programs. This provides a fun, challenging and enjoyable aspect to the more rigorous elements of alcohol rehab. Time in a
mountain addiction treatment program provides a number of different activities and lessons on recovery.
Experiential learning is hands on education for the recovery process. Different activities and challenges are provided each day to clients of our alcohol and
drug addiction treatment program. Some of these challenges are used to teach cognitive or behavioral lessons. Others are used in establishing recovery skills. Members of our experiential staff work with clients in teaching lessons of the recovery process. Most activities involve a sit-down session and a discussion on what is learned through these activities.
The powerful piece to this is found within the serenity of nature. Many different outdoor activities are used in teaching concepts of the 12-step program. The mountains and nature provide a serene backdrop for internal changes and recovery. Those in alcohol rehab are given time alone to meditate and to establish connections to a power greater than their own. Hiking, mountain biking, river rafting, snow shoeing and rock climbing are just a few of the fun and engaging outdoor activities used to teach concepts of recovery.
Continuing the Alcohol Addiction Treatment Program
The recovery process only begins with alcohol rehab. To overcome the struggles of alcoholism it takes time and personal commitment.

With the Cirque Lodge alcohol addiction treatment program, the alcoholic is treated for their struggles and develops the skills for recovery. The individual must then take these things and utilize them within their life as a measure of relapse prevention. Recovery programs are also effective pieces to this. Alcoholics Anonymous and working with a sponsor can provide continued support in achieving long term recovery.
Prior to leaving the Cirque Lodge alcohol treatment facility, the resident is prescribed with a Continuing Care Plan. This is a plan to assist the alcoholic going forward in recovery. Some individuals can greatly benefit from a sober living environment and a transition period; others can require additional intensive outpatient therapies. These needs are coordinated through the Continuing Care Plan. Additional aftercare and alumni privileges are provided through Cirque Lodge as well. Clients can return for Family Week, or to guest with us when needed to help them strengthen their resolve for recovery.
