Drug Rehab
Cirque Lodge, Sundance Utah



An Effective and Exclusive Alcohol and Drug Rehab Program Consists of Three Main Elements

An effective alcohol and drug rehab program at Cirque Lodge consists of three main elements. The first important step is to have the individual go through detox and stabilization, where appropriate. The goal with this first phase is to make sure the individual's medical health is safely stabilized, and the individual is ready for drug rehabilitation. If needed prior to admission, Cirque Lodge offers detox services with a separate local licensed drug detox facility.

spacer The second element is the main drug rehab program. This is accomplished in a private residential environment and includes individual and group therapy including cognitive and behavioral therapy, and experiential therapy consisting of hiking, biking, snowshoeing, helicopter tours of the surrounding wilderness, river walking, and the world's largest indoor ropes course.

The third element is an effective relapse-prevention program. Cirque Lodge offers an extended after-care program for each resident. This after-care is for a period of one year after the resident leaves Cirque Lodge. A therapist in the resident's local area is contacted to provide after-care during this phase of drug rehab.

Alcohol and Drug Rehab at Cirque Lodge

Cirque Lodge is located above the world-renowned Sundance Ski resort owned by Robert Redford. This primary care residential alcohol and drug rehab facility houses private and semi-private rooms for residents seeking the ultimate in privacy. Cirque Lodge also has a 100,000 square foot studio located minutes away at the mouth of Provo Canyon and the foot of majestic Mount Timpanogos. This primary care and extended care residential facility also houses the world's largest indoor ropes and challenge course.

spacer Treatment for all different types of drugs or alcohol abuse is accomplished at both facilities. The studio is situated on a private gated estate with over twelve beautifully landscaped acres and includes a pasture and horse arena where much of the equine therapy is conducted. Ed Storti, one of the most successful drug interventionists, has said that if he were to build an alcohol or drug rehab facility of his dreams, it would be like Cirque Lodge.

Upon admission, each resident's needs are assessed and an individualized program is developed. Each program consists of private one-on-one therapy sessions, group therapy sessions, and group experiential therapy sessions. The alcohol and drug rehab program at Cirque Lodge is based on a twelve-step program, and includes long-term after-care and designation of a sponsor.

For most people, alcohol or drug rehab is viewed as a negative. We at Cirque Lodge want residents to have the best experience of their lives while in rehab. We believe that if a resident has a very positive experience while here, they will carry with them this experience through their road to recovery, realizing that life truly can be good again.

Length of Stay

The minimum length of stay at the alcohol and drug rehab program at Cirque Lodge is thirty days. The length of stay depends on the resident's needs, and is assessed during this first thirty days. If more time is required, as determined by the counseling staff, a recommendation is made to the resident and his or her family. We always strive to make sure the resident has sufficient primary care to give them the best opportunity to remain sober.

For those who need more treatment than primary care provides an extended care program is offered. This program gives the resident additional time to utilize the skills learned in primary treatment, and acquire additional skills to help maintain a sober life style. This time is typically spent on working additional steps of the twelve step program not completed during primary treatment. During this time, the resident begins working with his or her sponsor.

Experiential Therapy for Alcohol and Drug Rehab

spacer One of the most successful elements of our addiction treatment program is our use of experiential therapy. Most other programs rely solely on cognitive and behavioral therapy in private or group sessions within the four walls of a treatment center. We believe that residents can get closer to their higher power by being in the midst of the grandeur of nature. Cirque Lodge is situated high in the Wasatch Range of the Rocky Mountains. It is here that one can truly experience the wonders of nature and learn to appreciate anew the beauties of life.

With this pristine setting, we offer outdoor experiential therapy that helps residents recognize more fully their challenges and provide help for overcoming their individual weaknesses. Some of these therapies include helicopter tours of some of the most remote regions of the Rocky Mountains, snowshoeing, hiking, bicycling, river walking, and most importantly, equine therapy. Our equine therapy has been recognized as one of the most important and successful elements of our experiential alcohol and drug rehab program.
