Expert Insights
I ran across a very interesting article about a gym in Rochester, New York, that is tackling addiction recovery in a very unique way.
Addiction continues to plague New York, much like the rest of the country. But one Rochester gym is using fitness to aid his journey through recovery. He believes that the road to a healthy lifestyle is also a road that leads to lasting recovery. Joseph Berry puts in hours of sweat and pain in the gym as a way to empower himself and his recovery. After having so much success, he began a class called Recovery Fitness. Every Saturday, the gym is a safe haven for those in recovery.
To use the facility and join the workouts, people only need to have 48 hours of sobriety. This is such an inspirational and unique way to help people. I thoroughly support the program and everything it stands for. After all, healthy body, healthy mind, healthy recovery.

How Expensive is Drug Rehab in Rochester?
The cost of rehab depends on various factors, such as:
The level of care you need
What amenities the facility offers
The duration of treatment
Your financial situation
Whether the center accepts your insurance
Where the rehab is located
Many people utilize other means to cover the cost of care, aside from self-pay. One way to self-fund your rehab would be to create a crowdfunding campaign, asking benevolent people online and within your social group to contribute a small amount towards your rehab. Another way would be to look for a medical loan company or rehab that offers payment plans.
