The Premier Holistic Recovery Center
What does "holistic" mean?
Holistic health care is a method of care in which all personal needs whether psychological, social or physical are viewed and treated as a whole entity. Holistic health emphasizes the importance of looking at individuals as a whole. A joint focus on all physical, mental and spiritual aspects of life can lead to optimal health. This approach includes analyzing the physical, biological, nutritional, environmental, emotional, social, and spiritual wellbeing of each individual. Holistic medicine focuses on the importance of education and responsibility in order to achieve balanced and healthy life.
The Holistic Experience at Prominence
Prominence Treatment Center implores a holistic approach to addiction recovery. We have chosen the holistic method because of the benefits it affords individuals seeking to recover from addiction. Our holistic approach focuses on the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of addiction. Through this joint focus we work to develop a sense of self-awareness in all individuals. We believe that if an addict is able to become one with their mind body and soul, they will do everything in their power to treat themselves positively.
The most important thing that is needed in order to learn one’s self is peace and serenity. Prominence not only offers a full scale holistic program, but we also offer the perfect environment for individuals to capitalize on the holistic treatment they will enjoy.

A Focus on Nutrition and Exercise
Improving the health and physical well being of individuals in recovery is one of Prominence Treatment Center’s main priorities. We strive to return individuals to their natural state of wellbeing. By providing nutritionally prepared food and a daily fitness program we believe we can get individuals back to their optimum health. Our health and fitness staff encourages and helps individuals partake in healthy indoor and outdoor activities like weight training, cardio kickboxing, fitness boot camp, yoga, hiking, swimming, beach workouts and more.
At Prominence Treatment Center we are fully aware of the impact proper nutrition can have on individuals struggling with recovery from all types of substances. We provide well balanced and nutritious foods that are catered to an overall physically healthy state while still offering the right nutrients to help control stress prevent relapse. By receiving proper nutrition, individuals at Prominence are able to get in touch with their body and understand how it feels to be physically satisfied without drugs or alcohol in their bodies.
Proper nutrition has been shown to go a long way in the proper recovery from addiction. Brain chemistry and stress are both affected by the food and chemicals that are eaten. For many individuals the issue is not about what they are eating but rather what they are missing in their meals. At Prominence treatment center we help to introduce fresh, nutritious and beneficial foods into the daily lifestyle of the individuals at our facility. We believe that individuals will benefit by learning that what they eat is directly effecting how they feel. Individuals are able to learn that when proper meals with proper nutrition are included into their lives, they can assist in diminishing the cravings and impulses to abuse drugs or alcohol.
In addition to receiving proper nutrition, each individual meets with a nutritionist. Along with the nutritionist, individuals structure and plan a healthy and achievable food plan for recovery that we hope goes beyond the time spent in treatment.
Our chefs will always prepare the most delicious and nutritious meals each day in order to aid in recovery and benefit in health.
Prominence Treatment Center residential addiction treatment programs provide focused physical fitness, nutritional guidance and body awareness treatment. We believe that these are the final components of our non 12 step based behavioral therapy program. Getting comfortable with one’s body is a critical factor in long term happiness.
