About Dr Pauls by the Sea
Dr Paul’s By The Sea in St. Augustine, Florida, is an addiction recovery center that assists individuals with substance use disorder. The levels of care they provide include the intensive outpatient program (IOP), inpatient rehab, and detox. Specialized rehab services are also available for veterans and first responders.
Alternative Therapies for Healing
The facility aims to help you address your addiction in different ways beyond talk therapy and group meetings. They use alternative therapies to improve your overall well being, which can support your long term recovery.
The holistic services you may participate in are tai chi, acupuncture, yoga and medication. Each therapeutic option can assist you in relieving your stress so that you have less of an urge to use substances.
Plus, you can also just take in the ambiance. The center has a tropical resort feel, with lounge chairs and an indoor gym. There’s even a video game arcade should you need to vent some stress in a competitive way.
Care Services Near the Beach</h3?
One advantage of this facility that I like is that you’re just minutes away from the relaxing scenery of Vilano Beach and the shoreline of the San Sebastian River. On a sunny day, you can spend time after a treatment session sitting and enjoying the calming sounds of the ocean.
Targeted Care for Individuals with Unique Needs
Two services that stood out the most to me at this location are the veteran’s rehab and the rehab for first responders. Individuals in these groups face unique levels of stress that require targeted care.
Counselors help veterans and first responders heal from mental health conditions that may be contributing to their addiction, such as anxiety and post traumatic stress disorder. Clients learn healthy coping mechanisms that can allow them to manage their symptoms better.
