Rehab With Renewed Efforts In Holistic Healing

[Malibu, CA] - Sunset Malibu, an exclusive treatment center on the California coast, has long been a transformational force in the field of rehabilitation and recovery. Now, Sunset is announcing its redoubled efforts in the pursuit of sustainable holistic healing.

Addiction is never strictly a physical disease. On the contrary, substance abuse always entails psychological dependency, which makes it especially important that substance abuse treatment promote psychological wellness. In the end, there's simply no other way to guarantee the long-term success of the rehabilitation process.

Those considerations, in turn, are at the heart of Sunset Malibu's holistic treatment philosophy.

With its world-class caregivers and elegant accommodations, Sunset Malibu is an unparalleled recovery destination. The rehab center has always catered to upscale clients from every corner of the globe. Now Sunset is renewing its commitment to its core values, with the goal of delivering comprehensive care to individuals who seek it. At Sunset Malibu, the client-the whole client-always comes first.

"There are no partial victories in the fight against addiction," said Sunset Malibu Program Director Dr. Georgina Smith. "Real healing has to occur in mind as well as in body, in spirit as well as in substance. That's why we use advanced dual-diagnosis techniques to assess the psychiatric health of every new resident. It's also why our personally-tailored treatment programs have such a robust rate of success."

Sunset's competitors, meanwhile, can hardly make the same claims about their own treatment efforts.

Most rehab facilities acknowledge the importance of holistic treatment. But very few of them put their own principles into practice. In fact, many of the most "exclusive" clinics in Los Angeles target the physical symptoms of the disease while virtually ignoring its psychological roots. This is an enormous mistake-and one that can have devastating consequences for patients and their families.

"The stakes in the rehabilitation process are enormous," Dr. Smith said. "At Sunset Malibu, we understand that our clients trust us to save their lives, and we stop at nothing to ensure that we justify their faith. To do anything less would be unethical and immoral."

Addiction ruins lives. Addiction treatment can help to solve the problem, but only if it's delivered by competent and compassionate caregivers. Sunset Malibu's clinical psychologists and licensed clinical social workers are leading figures in their respective fields. For the center's successful graduates, their expertise has made all the difference in the world.
