Bulimia Treatment & Rehab in Hawaii

When you decide that it is time to get help for your eating disorder, consider Exclusive Hawaii Rehab. We are the best wellness center for high net worth and celebrity individuals struggling with bulimia because we uphold high standards of treatment, privacy, and security in our luxury establishment. We provide 100% customized holistic, therapeutic, and clinical treatment programs, along with incredible food, accommodation, and healing treatments for your body, mind, and spirit.

We are a non-dogmatic, non-12-step treatment center, meaning we do not give you specific guidelines or steps you must follow to heal. Instead, we rely on your own wisdom, helping you to identify your core beliefs, and then find your motivations and challenge your thoughts, behaviors, and actions that do not serve you well. Finding the root causes of your eating disorder, including anxiety and past trauma, will help you to be able to heal from the inside out.

When you enter our residential treatment program for bulimia, we will ensure you are treated with respect and dignity. There is nothing inherently wrong with you, and at Exclusive Hawaii Rehab, our professional team will work alongside you to address underlying issues and help provide you with healthy coping skills and tools that will last you a lifetime.

At Exclusive Hawaii Rehab, we know that when a person is struggling with bulimia, the issue is not only that they cannot control themselves around food. There are incredibly strong underlying beliefs about how a person’s value is determined by a certain number on the scale or an ideal body shape, other peoples’ opinions, and how “good” or “bad” they are being when it comes to food and weight. There is a preoccupation with perception by others, and somebody struggling with bulimia will have a harsh, negative opinion of themself and be overly critical of themselves.

Bingeing and purging are the main symptoms of bulimia, in which the affected person will eat a large amount of food without being able to stop or control how much they are eating, and then try and lose the calories by making themselves vomit, fasting between binges, going on a strict diet between binges, taking laxatives, taking weight-loss supplements or herbs, or using diuretics and enemas, all with the purpose of avoiding weight gain. The severity of a person’s bulimia is usually determined by how many times per week the binge and purge cycle takes place.

Bulimia and other eating disorders can cause physical, social, and emotional problems over time, and require professional help. Every person is different, but there are some common life events and triggers that can happen at certain developmental stages that can affect a person’s tendency toward developing an eating disorder. These can include:

  • Growing up with family members or having friend groups who are overly concerned about looks or weight, or those who make comments and observations about eating and weight
  • Being involved in sports and other activities where body shape is important and you are expected to look a certain way, like dancing or swimming, or having a social circle in which discussions around diets and weight loss are common
  • Growing up with a negative body image due to beliefs about body shape, weight and eating have to do with your inherent value
  • Growing up with limited access to food and feel driven to overeat due to fears of food scarcity
  • Having childhood obesity or having been overweight as a child, never having learned about proper nutrition, portion sizes, or how to self-regulate when it comes to eating
  • Not having been allowed to make your own decisions about eating as a child-like being made to “clean your plate” even when you weren’t hungry
  • Having a history of sexual abuse or other trauma, or having depression, anxiety, OCD, or another co-occurring mental health issue

Relationships with food can be complex, but it is important to know that bulimia can cause negative, long-term health issues if the behavior continues, even becoming life-threatening, even if you appear to be of average weight and health from the outside.

Health complications that come with bulimia include:

  • Sore and irritated throat, along with severe tooth decay and gum disease
  • Swollen, irritated parotid (saliva) glands
  • Digestive problems and heartburn
  • Severe dehydration can cause kidney issues
  • Electrolyte imbalance causes muscle cramps and weakness in the body
  • Heart arrhythmias or other heart problems
  • Absent or irregular periods
  • Hypertension
  • Social and relationship problems stemming from low self-esteem
  • Mental health issues that can lead to self-harm or even suicide

Why Choose Exclusive Hawaii Rehab for Residential Bulimia & Eating Disorders

When you arrive at rehab in Hawaii, you can be certain you will be receiving top-tier care from our experts in holistic care, medical services, and psychiatric health. Our medical doctor specializes in naturopathic healing and can even do blood work to find deficiencies that can be remedied through diet and supplements or IV therapy. Remedying these fundamental deficiencies can make a huge difference in your overall sense of well-being. The health of your body will be looked after by an incredible medical team, and you will receive evidence-based and holistic treatments from some of the best therapists and practitioners in the country.

Our integrated care programs will help you heal your mind, body, and spirit as you dig deep into your psyche, figure out what is most important to you, and work to become the person you want to be. We will help you improve your relationship with food, self-esteem, and body image, and we can heal that underlying trauma and pain that started it all.

How Long is Rehab?

At Exclusive Hawaii Rehab we offer 30–90-day programs, with the option to stay longer if we have the space, as the longer you spend in inpatient rehab, the less likely you are to relapse.

Through years of experience, we have found that it takes at least 28 days to be able to change patterns of behavior for good. In our 30-day program, you will have the time to get to the underlying causes of your bulimia and reevaluate your negative and self-destructive thoughts and behaviors at their core. We will provide the proper nutrition, treatments, and exercise to help your body heal, the therapy and counseling to get to the root of the matter, and the holistic treatments to help your spirit soar.

Why Choose Residential Rehab for Treating Bulimia?

When you choose residential rehab for bulimia treatment, you are making a commitment to yourself and bettering your health. You are deciding to dedicate a full 30 days or more to getting healthy, really putting effort into breaking unhelpful habits, and finding the truth of your belief system so you can build yourself back up again.

At Exclusive Hawaii Rehab, our inpatient rehab:

  • Allows connection with home, school, and work through the use of your cell phone, laptop, and other personal devices, and we can even arrange to move your treatments around, so they don’t interfere with important commitments
  • Provides a new and supportive environment, in which you can truly give yourself the freedom to be yourself, let go of all the things you are “supposed to” be, and focus on your own wellness without judgment
  • Has a high level of medical support for health issues that bingeing and purging, anxiety and stress can cause on the body over time
  • Provides a safe environment for you to practice your new recovery skills in response to triggering stimuli
  • Has four incredible gourmet chefs and an onsite nutritionist, all of whom will work with you to figure out what works best for you when it comes to eating. We serve fresh and healthy food that is GMO-free, with ingredients from local farmers’ markets. You can ask questions and learn what you need for your body to function
  • Will not force feed you or make you ask for a key to the bathroom. There is no reason for us to bully you or shame you, because through our holistic and therapeutic treatments you will find a new way to process the feelings that are causing bulimia, stopping it at the source.
  • Is not dogmatic or a 12-step program, so we do not have specific rules or actions you have to follow, our program is much more fluid and flexible, and can change depending on your specific needs
  • Happens in a peaceful and relaxing setting, so you can truly find harmony within yourself as you work with us to heal yourself.
  • Promotes your finding your own way, so you can gain a new perspective on life that can change what you have been “programmed” to think about your weight, body shape, and diet
  • Will give you help dealing with issues like trauma and anxiety, pain, and your own inner critic, as well as providing recovery tools that will last you a lifetime, like self-acceptance, anger management, self-awareness, and self-regulation

Benefits of Residential Bulimia Treatment

The environment you are in can influence your ability to truly put yourself out there during treatment, and at Exclusive Hawaii Rehab, we provide 30 to 90 days of non-judgmental peace and quiet, so you can work to remove all the programming you learned as a child about eating, weight, and exercise. You will be able to explore your deeply held beliefs and question whether they are actually working for you.

Here you will be able to take a break from the day-to-day triggers and stresses that may exacerbate your underlying anxiety, low self-esteem, and other issues.  Creating a temporary distance between yourself and these triggers provides the space you need to be able to reconnect with your authentic self.

Top Notch Medical Care at Exclusive Hawaii Rehab

At Exclusive Hawaii Rehab, on top of our substance abuse and mental health accreditation from CARF (The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities), our eating disorder program has its own separate CARF certification.

Our diet, nutrition, and wellness programs are renowned for their effectiveness. With our medical staff who can help you heal your body, our nutritionist who can teach about wellness and food, our therapists who can help you get to the root of your eating disorder, and our holistic practitioners who will ensure your spiritual and mental health is balanced with your bodily care, you will be able to heal on all levels.

At Exclusive Hawaii Rehab, we also offer dual diagnosis treatments for people who are dealing with mental illness on top of their eating disorders. These issues often go hand-in-hand, as they are usually caused by the same underlying issues. Some common mental health concerns that are often found with eating disorders include anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and mood disorders. With our customized care, we can help you get your physical and mental health under control once and for all so you can move on with your life without fear or underlying issues running your life.

Symptoms of Bulimia

The most common symptoms of bulimia include:

  • Frequent episodes where you eat an atypically large amount of food in one sitting, are unable to stop eating or control how much you eat, feel a loss of control while eating
  • Recurrent actions did prevent weight gain, like vomiting, using laxatives, diuretics, or enemas after bingeing, using dietary supplements or herbal products for weight loss
  • Spending excessive amounts of time (hours a day) exercising
  • Fasting, limiting calorie intake and avoiding food between binges
  • Eating in secret, eating late at night or hiding while eating, eating differently around others than when you are alone, not wanting to eat in public or in front of others
  • Living in fear of gaining weight, obsessively calculating calories burned against calories eaten
  • Feeling guilty or ashamed about what you have eaten
  • Being preoccupied with your weight and/or body shape, constantly worrying about ‘being fat’
  • Having a distorted or excessively negative body image, with unrealistic hyper-focus on obtaining a goal weight or body shape
  • Having physical symptoms of purging like scars, calluses or sores on knuckles or hands, damaged teeth and gums, swelling in hands, feet, and face, and fluctuations in weight
  • Constantly thinking about food when you are not hungry, eating when you are not hungry or eating to escape your feelings
  • Attempting many different diet plans with no lasting success
  • Discarding food, but then coming back to it to eat it later
  • Stealing other people’s food and hiding food to make sure you will have “enough”
  • Waiting for your life to begin after you “lose the weight”
  • Feeling hopeless about your relationship with food

    If these symptoms sound familiar you should seek help with your eating disorder. You are suffering unnecessarily because you have underlying conditions that need to be addressed. The food is not the problem, and neither are you. There is nothing to be ashamed about. With a little help from the experts at Exclusive Hawaii Rehab, you can change the way you think and feel about food, your weight, and your body shape, gain higher self-esteem, and improve your overall wellness.

    How We Address the Underlying Issues of Bulimia & Eating Disorders

    At Exclusive Hawaii Rehab, we ask you to engage your intelligence as you spend your time with us exploring your own beliefs and getting to the root of your bulimia through therapy, mindfulness, and exploration of the self. We value your opinions and your expertise on your own body and health, and we will honor your thoughts and feelings throughout treatment.

    At Exclusive Hawaii Rehab, we recognize that many of our patients have had life experiences that may have been traumatic in situations where they were in a medical facility, put in a place of vulnerability, or otherwise made to feel unsafe. For this reason, we use trauma-informed practices, so that you will always feel safe and listened to throughout treatment. We believe in informed consent, open communication, and collaboration. We will take care to avoid re-traumatization, so we can build a trusting relationship over your time with us. This transparency and openness will help you relax and truly be able to work on the health of your body, mind, and spirit.

    The therapies we provide will help you deal with hurtful or damaging messaging you receive from external sources as you will be more aware of yourself and your deep-down beliefs.

    Some of the treatments and programs we offer include:

    • Non-12-Step therapy: that will help you deal with your eating disorder, like Stimulus Belief Response, mindfulness, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).
    • Holistic Modalities: like yoga, nutritional therapy and supplements, conscious breathing techniques, meditation, yoga, mindfulness training, and massage therapy
    • Music therapy: to relieve mental anguish and feelings of sadness and elevate mood while reducing stress and pain.
    • Art therapy: to use creative self-expression to deal with strong emotions and increase feelings of self-worth
    • Massage therapy: to help your body relax and release toxins during your massage.
    • Acupuncture: to stimulate the nervous system to release chemicals in your body to promote natural healing and emotional well-being.
    • Outdoor therapy:  to instill a sense of well-being and purpose into your day through a combination of sunlight, fresh air, and exercise. We also offer equine therapy and take nature excursions like going to the beach, dolphin therapy, surf therapy, snorkeling, zip-lining, or hiking through the beautiful Hawaiian landscape.

    Bulimia Treatment Methods

    At Exclusive Hawaii Rehab, the treatments we provide to help get to the root of your eating disorder will not only help with symptoms of bulimia but will also treat co-occurring disorders by helping you get to the root of your issues and teach you helpful coping mechanisms to get through times of stress and difficulty.

    Underneath it all, bulimia is an issue with your nervous system and your underlying consciousness and beliefs. We can help you address the causes of your eating disorder through evidence-based and holistic treatments including:
