Drug Rehab Alumni

Cirque Lodge is home to a private alcohol rehab and drug rehab program nestled in the mountains of Sundance Utah. For years we have helped countless individuals discover a lasting recovery from alcohol and drug addiction. In addition to aftercare, our drug rehab alumni are also provided activities and services to assist them in their recovery. This includes our ever growing annual alumni reunion held each fall. As we have helped to change lives with our program, we are continually looking forward to see our alumni every opportunity we can.

It Begins with the Drug Rehab Program

At Cirque Lodge, we treat addiction with an innovative and unique approach. Treatment is personalized to meet the drug rehab needs of each client. Cirque Lodge is recognized as a leading treatment model for addressing the disease of addiction. Our alumni come to us as clients with an addiction problem. Within addiction treatment they benefit from personalized treatment and a life changing experience.

Every drug rehab alumni probably has amusing stories about their experiences in experiential therapy. The experiential portion of the Cirque Lodge program is what sets apart our treatment center as a little different then others. Experiential therapy involves learning recovery lessons through activity. These activities include: hiking, river rafting, mountain biking, pottery, helicopter flights, and our indoor ropes facility. The most noted experiential activity is of course our equine experience. Our clients benefit from working with horses in indoor and outdoor facilities. All in all it is therapeutic life altering experience. Each and every alumni probably has a story to tell about their experience working with horses.

To assist our alumni after rehab we offer a year of aftercare. Continuing treatment with outpatient programs is recommended to maintain support in recovery. Aftercare consists of continued support groups, 12-step meetings, and addiction sponsors. Surrounding oneself with the right elements of support makes recovery an easier process of becoming a success.

Benefits for Our Alumni

To assist in recovery Cirque Lodge offers some drug rehab services for our alumni. We supply the graduates of our program with a guesting privilege. Recovery is a difficult process. For some the road of recovery can be challenging. The guesting privilege is an alternative to relapsing. It is a chance to return to the Cirque Lodge facility for up to 72 hours and once again benefiting from the program. The guesting privilege is a chance to refocus efforts on recovery and remembering coping strategies against relapse. The guesting privilege is based on room availability and is only available to those who have not relapsed back into addiction.

Our drug rehab alumni also can return and participate in programs during family week. Cirque Lodge is known for its family program. Family Week occurs every three weeks into our treatment cycle. It is an opportunity for the family of our clients to participate in programs designed chiefly for the family. Our alumni in need of support and affirmation can return for family week and participate in these activities and lectures. It is just another chance to refocus efforts on sobriety.

Reunion for Drug Rehab Alumni

Each fall Cirque Lodge hosts its alumni reunion. It is a chance for the alumni of our addiction treatment program to return and enjoy the experience that is the drug rehab program. Our alumni come from all over the world to return and experience the serenity of the mountains. During the three day weekend of the alumni reunion it is a chance to reunite with all those that were influential in recovery.

The alumni reunion is full of activities and events. These activities include meetings, lectures, dinners, and of course excursions into the mountain to experience nature's healing once again. The culmination of the alumni reunion is the mountain bonfire and cookout. Each year the number of drug rehab alumni that return for the reunion is astounding. It is a testament not only to the success of the program, but also to the impact that this place has on their lives.

The alumni reunion is here to help continual build support towards successful recovery. Each year even our original clients return to remember the recovery experience that Cirque Lodge had to offer them. Addiction recovery here in the mountains is more than treatment for addiction. It is truly a life changing experience. If someone you love is struggling with alcohol or drug addiction, give Cirque Lodge a call. You never know; they may just be the alumni of the program.
