Traveling to a new city or state can be the most effective option for recovery, as some cities may not have high quality treatment options available. Those who are willing to travel for treatment have access to hundreds of thousands of centers across the U.S., allowing them to be much more selective when choosing the best program for their needs.
Traveling for detox and recovery puts you in the mindset of taking a journey toward recovery, allowing you a fresh start somewhere new. For many, putting distance between themselves and their triggers helps reduce the desire to use again. Having that physical separation can reinforce your commitment to sobriety and the treatment plan.
Admission to our facilities is voluntary, meaning the person has the ability to leave at any time, if they choose. Being far away from home deflects some of the temptation to walk away from treatment, increasing the guests chances of completing the program.
