The Benefits of Affordable Treatment at Costa Rica Recovery
For many, a longer stay at our immersive recovery program in made the difference in allowing them to overcome their substance misuse.
Do You Need Long-Term Treatment for Addiction?
It takes hard work and commitment to recover from substance abuse and addiction which is why those who are determined to put their substance use issues behind them often choose long-term treatment programs to help them find enduring sobriety. At Costa Rica Recovery, we specialize in this brand of healing, and we are unique in our ability to offer tremendously effective long-term treatment for addiction at a surprisingly affordable price.
If you or a loved one need addiction rehabilitation services, but have not been able to get adequate help in the past due to financial considerations, our long-term recovery program might be just what the doctor ordered.
Most addiction treatment centers offer inpatient or residential rehabilitation programs that last from a week to up to 28 days, but for many people, this length of care is not prolonged or intensive enough to help them overcome their pattern of substance use issues for the long-term.
For many, longer care is highly preferable. Among this group are people who:
Have been abusing drugs and alcohol for many years
Suffer from more than one type of addiction, to another substance or to something else (as 58% of respondents did in one study)¹
Have co-occurring mental health disorders (this applies to just over 40% of people with substance use disorders)²
Lack a supportive family or social network
Suffer from physical health conditions that might complicate recovery
Have been in and out of rehab in the past, without finding lasting sobriety
Unfortunately, the cost of most long-term rehabilitation programs can be prohibitive for those who really need it. As a result, they end up enrolling in shorter-term programs, often against the advice of treatment professionals who recommend they spend at least three months in treatment. It follows that rates of relapse after treatment are high for those who attend 28 day (or shorter) treatment programs.
Thankfully, financial considerations are a less formidable barrier for those who come to Costa Rica Recovery seeking longer addiction rehabilitation services. Our 30, 60 and 90-day residential programs are highly affordable and accessible to people from diverse backgrounds. Our programs are rooted in evidence-based clinical processes, overseen by medical doctors, and we have earned the reputation of creating an extraordinary, life-changing recovery experience for our clients, many of whom have left detailed reviews and testimonials.

In recognition of each client’s unique circumstances, we offer a customized approach to the addiction treatment process. The members of your healing team can craft a multi-layered residential recovery plan that will address all of your physical, psychological and emotional health needs on a round-the-clock basis, in addition to directly responding to the challenges posed by your substance abuse issues.
Traditional recovery services complemented by powerful holistic wellness practices make for a potent and life-altering combination, which is why Costa Rica Recovery rehab programs include extensive quantities of both. Our comprehensive treatment plans give you the opportunity to enjoy immense physical, mental and spiritual growth during a vital stage of your healing journey.
You’re undoubtedly wondering, how are we able to do all of this at a substantial discount in comparison to the cost of a normal treatment program at a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center located in the United States? Primarily, it is because our facilities are in Costa Rica, where the prices are reasonable and the healing energies are strong.
Costa Rica is a prime vacation destination, and for good reason. Its diverse landscapes expose hikers and tourists to an enchanting mixture of towering forests, pristine beaches, serene mountain meadows, hidden hot springs, spectacular waterfalls and ancient volcanoes. This is a peaceful and tranquil environment in which to heal and recover from long-term health challenges, including those associated with substance abuse and chemical dependency.
Despite all its unparalleled beauty and serenity, Costa Rica remains a stunningly affordable destination. This is especially true for travelers who come from the United States and Canada, which offer direct flights to the country’s capital city of San José (where Costa Rica Recovery’s facilities can be found). A further benefit is that nearly 40% of Costa Rican natives speak English, which is one of the highest rates of bilingualism found in Latin America. The percentages are highest in locations that cater to tourists, with San José ranking at the top of this list.
Because the cost of living here—and traveling here—is so modest, Costa Rica is an ideal location for an international residential recovery treatment center. At Costa Rica Recovery our primary mission is to provide the highest quality treatment services to the broadest range of people, and we are able to do that not just because of who we are, but where we are.
