Alcohol Treatment

The alcohol rehabilitation program at Tropical Oasis uses Hazelden's living in balance program as a method of helping our clients achieve a better understanding of alcoholism.  Living in Balance Combines experiential, cognitive-behavioral, and Twelve Step thinking.  Living in Balance is recognized by the National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices .  The conceptual framework for the living in balance program is that alcoholism is a chronic, progressive, relapsing condition that involves compulsion, loss of control, continued use despite negative consequences, and relapse.  Addiction is a Bio psychosocial problem affecting all areas of the client's lives.  Therefore effective alcohol treatment must also have a strong impact on all these areas.

In addition, we use several different therapies like group therapy, individual therapy, educational lectures and family therapy to help our clients gain a better understanding of their condition.   We incorporate alternative therapies like  acupuncture, promoting a holistic lifestyle.   Our grounds are very relaxing and for many, just the peace and serenity found at our facility is the catalysis needed to clear the mind.  We encourage everyone that chooses our facility to enjoy the tropical surroundings and plentiful wildlife that takes refuge on our property.   Some of our amenities include:

Drug Rehab Program

Understanding The Addiction

To truly understand the type of Drug Rehab that is appropriate for individuals with a chronic drug addiction problem it is important to understand the mechanisms that are at work. Drug addiction could be defined as; a constant and unrelenting effort to obtain drugs in order to alter the feelings and perceptions of the person using them. Another facet of drug addiction is; the brain adapts to the presence of drugs and make adjustments accordingly. Because of these chemical changes in the brain due to the constant use of drugs, when a drug abuser attempts to halt their drug use the brain signals the individual that the drug is needed.

This is a major cause of drug cravings. All drug abusers experience drug cravings for some period of time after ceasing drug use, that is a basic fact. This phenomenon will diminish over time as brain function returns to normal. Drug addiction typically involves habitual routines in the environmental scope of the individual i.e. the locations they use drugs, the people they hang out with, etc. In other words drug addiction is not just drug use, it also revolves around people and things in their immediate environment which help to reinforce the addictive behavior.

The individual's proximity & routines therein are what help to hold their addiction in place. It is the constant negative activities of their day to day life that perpetuates the problem and inhibits the native desire to stop ruining their life through the use of drugs.

Heroin Addiction Program

Here are a few things to consider about our
Heroin Addiction / Opiate Detox Program.

The heroin addiction program is designed to educate clients and help them to overcome there addiction to opiates. Chemical dependency demands that we provide accurate information regarding the progressive, chronic, and fatal nature of this disease. Through a wide range of lectures, work shops, videos, individual counseling, group therapy, writing and reading assignments, the client gains the information, insight and solutions needed to accept there disease.

Additionally, we have incorporated principal of a holistic life style into our program including our efforts to provide each client the added benefits of nutritional counseling and a healthy daily diet, also utilizing such treatment as acupuncture, and massage. To further support holistic recovery, each client will be under the medical care and guidance of our physicians and nutritionists. We strive to be sure you have competent medical care to assist in our endeavor to help you prevent further illness, facilitate recovery, and to optimize your health in the future.

Opiate detox can be incredibly uncomfortable for the addicted person. For this reason we have developed our opiate detox program to be as accommodating as possible during this painful time. Our emphasis is on personal attention and our clients are medically monitored. Using traditional as well as alternative medicine, we treat withdraw symptoms and complications that occur.

Successful opiate detox can make all the difference for someone in early recovery. For many the pain from opiate detox is enough to send them back to active addiction. This is why it is so important to have properly managed detox services.

Dear Tropical Oasis,

I was addicted to painkillers (norcos) for 2 years and vicodins for 5 years before coming to T.O.T.C. I used and abused alcohol for over 25 yrs. Since leaving TOTC after 30 days of treatment I have lost the craving for the pills and enjoy the freedom and joy of Sobriety! I absolutely could not have succeeded without the professional guidance of Nick Russi and his wonderful puppy Fritzy!

FIST  (Faith in Sobriety Today)

Sincerely yours,
William De Long  Pura Vida !  Vaya con Dios
