Drug Rehab and Addiction Program

It can be difficult when you or your loved one is struggling with alcohol or drug addiction. Even if you wanted to get well, it can be hard on your own. Cirque Lodge is here to help you. Cirque Lodge, in the mountains of Sundance Utah, is a private and exclusive drug rehab center. For some, a caring addiction program is all it takes to overcome the perils of alcohol and drug addiction. The dedicated staff at Cirque Lodge can help you or your loved one with the highest levels of care in an alcohol and drug rehab program.

Drug Addiction and Drug Rehab

The abuse of addictive substances like drugs and alcohol can change a person. Such substances take a psychological control of the individual and it overtakes their lives. Drug addiction ruins families, relationships and employment. Continued abuse of drugs can result in a chemically dependency. The individual will go to great lengths to keep and maintain the abuse of their drug of choice. Even if they hurt those they love, drug addiction is something that can not be controlled. For such a problem, a residential addiction program becomes the solution. There are many forms of alcohol and drug rehab. A safe residential environment provides the right levels of control for a long term drug rehab program.

At Cirque Lodge, addiction treatment is a three phase process. The recovery process begins with detoxification and stabilization of the individual. Following detox, personalized addiction treatment at the Cirque Lodge drug rehab center is an effective step towards overcoming addiction. Finally to assist in the recovery process, Aftercare is provided to address the individual's needs when they leave rehab. Through this process the recovering addict can develop effective coping strategies.

Detox Begins the Recovery Process

Depending on the severity of addiction, the individual entering drug rehab must undergo detoxification. Some individuals will abuse drugs prior to entering rehab, because they know it is their last. Detox is the process of ridding the body of drug and alcohol toxins, as well as stabilizing the body when experiencing withdrawal. Severe cases of alcohol and drug addiction can require very close medical detoxification. When the body is dependent on the substance, it can go through severe withdrawals. A detox stay treats for withdrawal problems. The length of stay in detox depends on how long it takes to get the body stabilized. Some drugs require a lengthier detox period. Alcoholism can also require a lengthier detox period.

Cirque Lodge is not a detoxification facility. We are contracted with a local medical detoxification facility. This is a facility that has been providing detox services for many decades. The service that they provide would be all that you would expect from a Cirque Lodge affiliated program. At Cirque Lodge, we focus mainly on being an effective drug rehab and addiction program, with a unique rehabilitation program.

The Cirque Lodge Addiction Program

Cirque Lodge is a nationally accredited addiction treatment facility. We are recognized for our unique approach to a traditional 12-step drug rehab center. Treatment is an effective balance of personal, group and family programs. Experiential activities are also used to provide fun and effective lessons on recovery. The drug rehab program is personalized to meet the needs of each client. Clients can require different levels of care and different approaches to help them arrest their disease. A personalized program allows us to pay attention to exactly what the client requires for an effective recovery.

The difference in the Cirque Lodge drug rehab facility is our use of experiential therapies. These activities teach vital recovery lessons that are learned through experience. Individuals can develop effective recovery strategies while out on the mountain, or even by working with horses. The experiential program allows clients to discover things within themselves they never knew was there. It is these things can have a therapeutic affect on the recovery process. These activities help to replace the fear and hopelessness of addiction, with positive coping and recovery strategies.

The Recovery Process and Aftercare Elements

Overcoming alcohol and drug addiction is a process. Even after treatment at a drug rehab center, it still requires time and effort before the impulses and urges to use diminish. This is where the role of 12-step programs steps in. Once the individual leaves the safety of a drug rehab center, they are exposed to many of the similar situations they had before they entered drug rehab and recovery programs. Enrollment into 12-step programs can help them in times of struggle. Many 12-step groups provide an addiction sponsor to help through the initial months of the recovery process.

Cirque Lodge provides a continuing care plan for each graduate of our program. This plan is designed to provide them with aftercare elements. Like the other elements of the Cirque Lodge addiction treatment facility, the continuing care plan is also personalized to meet the resident's needs. For graduates who remain close to the Cirque Lodge drug rehab center, the Studio facility hosts many outside 12-step meetings. Cirque Lodge also has an aftercare meeting for graduates who live locally. The recovery process takes time, but the drug rehab program at Cirque Lodge is here to help you or your loved one.
