Welcome to hawaii island recovery

Getting Sober Doesn’t Have to be Scary

When you’re hooked on drugs or alcohol, no one has to tell you all the problems addiction can cause run-ins with the law, serious harm to your health, and broken relationships, just to name a few. But when you’re in the midst of addiction, even if you’re facing those problems, it can still be really hard to reach out for help. Why? Because at most recovery centers, rehab can seem scary. But it doesn’t have to be! Here at Hawaii Island Recovery, we believe in a better way to recover.

Welcome to a Better Way to Recover

Dig your toes into the white sand. Dive into the ocean and stand at the bottom of a waterfall, humbled by its roar. At Hawaii Island Recovery, rehab is an opportunity to live life to the fullest and discover the joys sober living can hold.

A successful 30-day rehab day detox from pain pills and cocaine

I have never been to rehab in my life and I was so afraid of detox and being miserable without pills and drugs. I wish I came to Hawaii Island Recovery sooner because they made it so easy for me. If you or a family member is considering treatment I will highly suggest Hawaii Island Recovery. They have the best staff to accommodate your needs and are very compassionate and accommodating.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does treatment cost?
Your insurer may cover some or all of the cost of treatment. Depending on your carrier and policy, you may be responsible for the deductible and there may also be a co-pay. The cost of treatment is dependent on the length of stay and the level of care that is deemed medically necessary to support your recovery.
Hawaii Island Recovery is able to accept most insurance plans. Depending on your carrier and your individual plan, the extent of coverage will vary. To determine whether your insurance will cover some or all of the cost of treatment, you are urged to contact Hawaii Island Recovery today and speak with one of our Intake Coordinators or to fill out the “Verification of Benefits” form on our website. We will work quickly to ascertain your eligibility for insurance coverage for treatment with Hawaii Island Recovery.
Alcohol and most drugs are potentially toxic substances, particularly when used in excess. With chronic abuse, the human body adapts to the presence of these substances in an effort to counter their lethal effects. When alcohol or drugs are stopped, extreme care must be taken to ensure a safe withdrawal. Detoxification or “detox” refers to the acute phase of the withdrawal process that can be both uncomfortable and dangerous and may require medical intervention. For some patients, a “detox” protocol of prescribed medication may be required to ensure the client is safely “detoxed” with minimal discomfort.

Removing yourself from the stressors and triggers of daily life is essential in early recovery. Most of our clients have tried to get sober in their home communities and have failed to achieve lasting sobriety. A change in environment is not only conducive to breaking old patterns and habits, it also reduces exposure to the external triggers that most likely perpetuated the cycle of addiction.

Length of stay refers to the number of days a person is in residential treatment. Hawaii Island Recovery offers 30, 60 and 90-day treatment programs, with 90 days being the optimal length of stay to achieve long-term sobriety.
The majority of our clients who enter treatment for substance abuse have a co-occurring mental health disorder. Most commonly, our clients also suffer with depression, anxiety, and PTSD. In the majority of cases, we have found that underlying all of these conditions is a history of trauma that may include childhood abuse and neglect, sexual abuse and domestic violence. In our experience, it is imperative to aggressively treat the underlying trauma to reduce the risk of relapse after treatment. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based technique that has been demonstrated to effectively treat trauma at its source. Hawaii Island Recovery offers EMDR provided by a highly trained clinical staff in addition to CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) another effective therapeutic modality for the treatment of trauma.
