ABOUT INNERBALANCE HEALTH CENTER
Founded in 1998 and located on a quiet street in northern Colorado, 10 miles from Rocky Mountain National Park, InnerBalance Health Center is a luxury treatment center offering residential care, aftercare options, and intensive outpatient (IOP) services for individuals struggling with substance abuse. Residential stays generally last 28 days and focus on the Biochemical Restoration, nutrition, and counseling models of treatment.
TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT
InnerBalance’s program is built on the belief that successful addiction treatments must address the cognitive aspect alongside the biochemical aspects of addiction. In short, traditional talk therapies cannot treat addiction successfully alone. As such, the center offers a 28-day, determinedly holistic program that’s designed to address these root causes, as well as providing talk therapy and emotional support. The center tackles the effects of addiction on the client’s mind, body, spirit, and environment.
The most traditional elements of the InnerBalance program are behavioral counseling and spiritual counseling. However, the center also offers a range of biochemistry-based treatment methods including nutrition therapy and Biochemical Restoration. These include extensive lab tests, which are used to develop healthy nutrition and exercise systems using reiki, yoga, microcurrent stimulation, infrared saunas, and life coaching.
For clients that are not able to stay in the facility, intensive outpatient (IOP) services are available. Patients will receive all the same services with the exception of the residential accommodations. InnerBalance also helps clients to establish and maintain support systems. The facility offers up to 11 months of counseling and aftercare resources to help clients maintain better living habits. Families can receive education and support via a three-day family program, offered once per month. Clients are encouraged to participate in 12-step groups and other support systems, such as Life Ring, as tools for long-term sobriety.
