Non 12 Step Rehabs

Alternative drug rehabs have become overwhelmingly popular over the years with their high success rates for people never returning back to drugs and alcohol after rehab. One of the most effective type of treatment program available is a non 12 step rehab. Non 12 step rehabs not only provide individualized counseling but intensive life skills therapy and a biophysical treatment. Not to mention, most of these alternative non 12 step programs are also longer termed. Many people who find themselves addicted to drugs and alcohol believe there is more to overcoming their addiction than just praying, in this case, a non 12 step drug rehab is the best option.

Many people who are seeking alternative treatment have tried traditional treatment in the past and not had any success. This would include 12 step programs which believe that addiction is an incurable disease, and that a person is powerless and control less. Not to mention, these traditional programs also believe that relapse is part of recovery process and most of the residential facilities are sort term ranging from 21 to 28 to 30 day stays.

Finding a non 12 step rehab is highly recommended and always more effective than traditional programs. Also try to find a long term program as well that offers a nice residential setting and holistic care.
