Rehab Retreat
Do You Need Mental Health Treatment or Drug or Alcohol Addiction?
When you hear the word retreat, there are probably a few key phrases or ideas that come to mind: solitude, separation, privacy, getaway, vacation, holiday, or a number of other words used to describe a brief healing period, mostly regarding the benefits of substance abuse or several different mental health disorders. But do you know about the benefits of a rehab retreat?
But what is a retreat in terms of rehab? What’s the difference between a retreat for substance abuse or mental health and any other residential treatment or addiction recovery facility?
In this article, you’ll learn more about what a rehab retreat entails, including how to know when you might need one and how these are more beneficial for mental health disorders, as well as drug and alcohol addiction and co-occurring disorders.
You’ll also discover how Exclusive Hawaii Rehab is leading the way in retreat centers for substance abuse treatment, among other organizations in the United States.

A Mental Health & Drug and Alcohol Retreat
When you retreat from something, you’re escaping it. At Exclusive Hawaii Rehab, you’re retreating – but we can promise you the last thing you’re doing is running from your drug and alcohol issues. In fact, our addiction treatment specialists help you run right through your drug abuse, tackling the situation head-on.
The retreat part comes in because you get much-needed time during your addiction treatment – time for reflection, time for treating underlying causes, and time for being honest with yourself regarding drug and alcohol rehab.
Effective Treatment for Long Lasting Recovery
One of the first things you’re likely to notice if you’re attending a retreat for long-term recovery is the fact that there’s a far more personalized approach to your recovery and medical care. But what makes it a retreat?
A retreat is just an additional term used for the recovery journey to highlight when a recovery center potentially meets any of the following criteria:
- It is located far off the beaten path, away from major cities or urban areas – and places a heavy focus on this as a primary selling point.
- One of their primary offerings is a comprehensive, holistic treatment plan. Their recovery plan requires art-based therapies and holistic models in addition to lots of fresh air and exercise.
Many people consider a retreat to be a form of luxury rehab – which potentially holds some truth. The two forms of recovery definitely have some overlaps and share many of the same views, modalities, and treatments regarding addiction in general.
What are the Benefits of an Addiction Retreat?
If you’re planning on attending an addiction retreat to help you enter recovery, it’s important that you understand what these facilities can potentially do for your addiction, depression, anxiety, focus, or any underlying causes that landed you in drug rehab or alcohol rehab in the first place.
By attending a more secluded facility that offers a more personalized, holistic approach to treatment, clients are able to address issues they may have otherwise been struggling with or afraid to speak about.
Attending this type of rehab center provides the following healing experiences and benefits:
- Ideal for someone who is struggling with addiction and can’t seem to shake the bad habits of their town off. They may need a considerable distance between them and their source of drugs to begin recovery.
- Anyone who has tried traditional rehab programs with very limited success and has had challenges healing and dealing with relapse in the past.
- Any client suffering from an extreme medical situation that requires additional care and support (co-occurring disorders, eating disorders, etc.)
What Does a Rehab Center as a Retreat Consist Of?
A retreat-style rehab center doesn’t have a designated set of rules or a designation it falls under – as long as it meets the criteria of some form of “retreat” from your typical rehab center programs. However, because many of these treatment centers are similar, you can expect the following services/features to combat addiction:
- A combination of evidence-based addiction treatment and holistic forms of therapy.
- Alternative forms of therapeutic healing (more comprehensive list below)
- Family therapy for family members to participate in
- Multiple types of health insurance providers and insurance coverage plans accepted
Additional Forms of Substance Abuse Therapies
During addiction treatment at any retreat-style rehab, methods of therapy may include, but aren’t limited to:
- Equine therapy
- Art therapy
- Dual diagnosis treatment
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
- Surf Therapy
- Yoga
- Spa-Treatment
- Nutritional Therapy
- and others
Does a Retreat Program Offer Better Support?
It’s not that a retreat program offers “better support” – the same levels of care are typically still in place: detox, outpatient, inpatient, PHP, intensive outpatient, and aftercare levels of service.
However, a retreat offers a safe place that offers “different support,” separate from what clients may have tried in the past. When clients have a fresh perspective on the same old models of therapy, the chances grow exponentially higher that they achieve success after detox, and then success after inpatient rehab, and so on.
