Designed for Your Comfort.

At Capo Canyon Recovery, we combine our physician’s detox assessments and medication protocols with round-the-clock nursing staff to ensure a safe, comfortable detox process. We also offer holistic massage, yoga and meditation to help ease the discomfort and anxiety associated with withdrawal. Once you are medically stabilized, we offer an evidence-based residential treatment program incorporating individual and group therapy sessions to address the emotional and often underlying aspects to your addiction.

Our Mission is to help individuals shift their perspective; to focus on their strengths and the possibility of achieving their long-term wellness goals.

Our Vision is to provide the highest quality of care in the safest and most comfortable setting possible.
