At Les Mariannes Wellness Sanctuary, we believe in a holistic approach that transcends conventional addiction treatment. Holistic therapies for addiction embrace the entire person—addressing emotionalphysical, and spiritual aspects—to foster comprehensive healing. Unlike traditional methods, which often focus solely on symptoms, our approach acknowledges the interconnectedness of the body, mind, and soul, allowing individuals to not only overcome addiction but also witness enhancements across all facets of life.

Research emphasizes the effectiveness of holistic therapy within a comprehensive treatment plan that melds traditional and evidence-based therapies. Our integrated methodology blends conventional addiction treatments like psychotherapy and detoxification medication with alternative therapies such as acupuncture and yoga. This fusion aims to delve deeper, uncovering the underlying mentalemotional, and psychological triggers that fuel addiction.

Detoxification, while pivotal, stands incomplete without addressing the root causes of addiction—mental health disorderstrauma, stress, relationship intricacies, familial predispositions, or easy access to addictive substances. Our wide array of holistic therapies at Les Mariannes Wellness Sanctuary systematically tackles these issues, providing a comprehensive platform for recovery from addiction.

Physical: Encouraging fitness, nutrition, sleep, and healthy behaviors.

Emotional: Cultivating emotional balance, fostering healthy coping mechanisms, and processing feelings safely.

Social: Breaking isolation, fostering safe relationships, and constructing sober networks.

Spiritual: Rediscovering purpose, finding meaning, and connecting with oneself.

Intellectual: Establishing boundaries, devising plans, and developing essential skills.

Holistic Therapies at Les Mariannes Wellness Sanctuary:

Mindfulness: We incorporate meditation techniques in our programs to regulate emotions, aid in accepting distressing feelings, reduce substance urges, and enhance focus and mental clarity under pressure. Meditation also serves as a valuable tool for our patients to overcome cravings and manage intrusive thoughts. Mindfulness approaches also aid in emotional regulation and navigating difficult and unprocessed emotions during recovery.

Yoga: During yoga, we utilize relaxation techniques, controlled breathing, and physical poses to harmonize mind and body and promote holistic well-being of our patients. Yoga is highly effective in reducing substance use by alleviating stress and anxiety.

Exercise: We encourage activities like walking, weightlifting, and mountain hiking to establish routines, relieve stress, strengthen the body, boost self-confidence, and create a safe stress outlet. Exercise releases endorphins, crucial for pain relief and stress reduction, pivotal in maintaining long-term recovery.

Hydrotherapy: At Les Mariannes, we harness the healing powers of hydrotherapy through sauna, hammam, and ice baths. These practices promote detoxification, reduce stress levels, and enhance relaxation, pivotal elements in restoring the body and mind during the rehabilitation process.

Expressive Therapies: We employ art to treat substance use disorders, providing a channel for participants to express life events related to substance use initiation. Art exploration aids in navigating deep emotions, discussing substance-related issues, and expressing feelings that are hard to articulate verbally.

Relaxation Techniques: Our psychologist implements the guided imagery technique to alleviate anxiety and depression, fostering emotional well-being.

Massage Therapy: Massages are extensively used at Les Mariannes to alleviate stress, offering both physical and emotional relaxation, and addressing muscle aches and pains associated with withdrawal symptoms.

Acupuncture: Using Auricular Acupuncture, we offer balance restoration to the body post-struggles with substance abuse, contributing to overall wellness.

Group Therapies: Our group programs aid in emotional release, enhance listening skills, and develop social skills.
