Residential treatment for alcohol and drug addiction means someone lives at the facility while being treated, which is different than outpatient rehab. The type of care rendered at a residential facility in Oak can vary, but generally most programs offer group and individual counseling, psychotherapy, and many programs follow the 12-step approach of treatment. There are some residential programs that use alternative/non-traditional services into their rehab plans, types of care which can augment traditional rehab and can help with the process of recovery in a big way.
Some samples of other services one could expect are natural rehab and holistic practices integrated into the rehab program. A drug free detoxification using vitamins and supplements and even a sauna to sweat out toxins is a good example of this. This type of different detox method also prevents drugs and toxins from lingering in your body and creating potential problems in the future. Many programs use exercise including message therapy, meditation, acupuncture, yoga and tai chi which can give relief from psychological stress while also providing physical gains. There are residential programs, particularly for young people, that employ out-of-doors therapy that can help individuals regain their self-confidence and teach them the tools they need to stay drug and alcohol free and be able to love life again.
