About Hawaii Island Recovery
Found in the beautiful Kailua Kona, Hawaii, Hawaii Island Recovery offers high-end addiction and mental health treatment for residents who are seeking help recovering from drug or alcohol addiction as well as co-occurring mental health conditions. They blend more traditional methods of treatment with natural healing properties of the Hawaiian environment to bring you a very unique recovery experience.
Personalized Care in a Residential Setting
They offer a healthy range of treatment options and levels of care, including medically supervised detox, residential treatment, and aftercare planning. The residential program is set in a home-like setting that's structured to get you away from daily distractions and triggers so that you can focus completely on recovering.
Therapies That Go Beyond the Ordinary
I like that they integrate a lot of holistic and experiential therapies. They provide the traditional offerings like individual therapy and group therapy that use methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and EMDR for trauma. But what fascinated me even more were their more experiential modalities, which include dolphin-assisted therapy. That's right—as a patient, you can interact with dolphins in the open ocean, and this is meant to help you get an emotional connection and reduce your anxiety while fostering healing.
They also have equine therapy, which can help do the same but with horses. This is extremely unique and a big selling point for this facility. They also offer mindfulness and yoga sessions that can help you physically and emotionally.
Serenity, Nature, and Lasting Recovery
There's plenty of amenities, as you can imagine, since it is located in such a beautiful environment. It's quiet and peaceful and has stunning ocean views and lush tropical surroundings. The serene surroundings can help you achieve a sense of peace. Plus they offer nutritional support, physical fitness activities, and weekly outings to places like the beach or scenic hikes as part of your healing process.
