Relief Recovery Center
15 Carlson Lane, Falmouth, Massachusetts, 02540
At Relief Recovery Center, we believe in providing exceptional care in a serene environment purposely positioned by the beautiful beachside of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Our program options offer an individualized approach from the moment a patient begins treatment. Our dedicated staff knows the process firsthand as they too have been affected by substance misuse in one form or another.
Our patients will learn more about themselves from outside the restraints of a classroom. Find serenity in our outdoor activities such as weekly beach trips, local lighthouse tours, sailing vessel outings, fishing charters, and baby goat yoga. We provide an array of methodic therapy treatments, both on-site and off-site with our preferred partners. We include such remedies as CBT, DBT, ACT, massage therapy, acupuncture, equine therapy, and our favorite of all – K9 therapy.
We believe that recovery should be about more than just abstaining from drugs and alcohol. We want to help our patients discover new passions and hobbies that will help them structure a happy and healthy lifestyle.
