About Windmill Wellness Ranch Rehab & Recovery – Canyon Lake
The Windmill Wellness Ranch is an inpatient rehab and recovery center located close to San Antonio in Canyon Lake, Texas. Here, they treat adults with substance use and co-occurring (dual diagnosis) disorders. If you’re a veteran then it’s good to know that the center is in-network with TRICARE insurance. They also accept most major insurance. They offer medical detoxification and you’ll be monitored 24/7 for safety and comfort. As soon as the toxins are out of your system, you’ll start the recovery program.
They take a holistic approach to addiction therapy and work on underlying mental health issues that can affect addiction. It’s common for depression, anxiety, trauma, and other mental health disorders to cause some people to self-medicate their emotional pain with drugs or alcohol. They’ll help you increase your awareness of how your body feels using movement, breathing, and mindfulness.
You’ll get blue light therapy every morning to help with your circadian rhythm. You’ll also spend time outdoors in the natural setting surrounding the ranch. Something neat about this facility is that they allow you to bring your dog to the ranch during your stay.
They use the 12 Steps as the foundation for the program. You’ll learn the steps and start using them and you’ll attend support meetings.
You’ll also learn the SMART program which stands for self-management and recovery training. SMART is scientifically based and offers an alternative to spiritually-based programs. You’ll learn how to maintain your motivation for sobriety while coping with your urges and cravings. You’ll also learn what it means to live a well-balanced life while managing your feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. SMART is different from Alcoholics Anonymous in that it isn’t a 12 Step program.
The center also offers an intensive outpatient program (IOP) which you can attend virtually if you can’t make it in person. The IOP uses small groups, 12 Step, and SMART recovery. You’ll have access to family therapy sessions. You’ll also attend three 3-hour groups and an hour of individual counseling with a minimum of 10 hours of treatment per week.
This facility is accredited by the Joint Commission.
