The earliest stage of recovery is the detoxification and withdrawal process. This is when your body is eliminating harmful substances that it has grown dependent on in order to restore a healthy balance.
Men often avoid seeking professional help and attempt detox on their own. However, this process can lead to uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms and even dangerous effects. Professional detox offers safety, relief, and much-needed support in a crucial time.
At The Last Resort, our inpatient detox program takes place on a serene 55-acre horse ranch in the beautiful rolling hills of central Texas, just outside Austin. Here, you will experience a tranquil recovery, evidence-based interventions, dedicated support, and our signature Equine-Assisted Therapy to address any underlying trauma and enrich the treatment experience.
Our rustic but elevated environment offers the perfect blend of addiction treatment care and adventure resort for a positive recovery you’ll remember forever.
Our secluded horse ranch sits on 55+ acres of rolling Texas hill country. Here is where inpatient Detox, Rehab, and Family Programs take place and where lifelong healing is ignited.
Clients will have the unique opportunity to fully focus solely on treatment and recovery and participate in a myriad of interventions, including:
Located in the heart of Austin, our outpatient clinical campus is your hub for ongoing support after inpatient treatment has ended.
The same degree of dedicated treatment, therapy, and community are available here but with additional flexibility so you can seamlessly adapt to daily routines. Levels of care offered at this location include:
Located in the rolling hills of Central Texas, our 55-acre ranch provides a private and tranquil environment, allowing men to detox without outside distractions. Our confidential setting ensures peace of mind while focusing on healing.
A residential detox and drug rehab program is a highly structured environment that offers both daily treatment sessions and essential rest and reflection.
Detox is often the first step toward recovery and is an essential component of effective treatment. Medical Detox provides a safe and comfortable environment where you can undergo the withdrawal process with medical supervision. Undergoing the detox process on your own can be not just uncomfortable but dangerous, making it important to find a supportive and healing environment to focus on recovery.
As part of a complete treatment program, when needed, the Last Resort incorporates detox into a treatment program that emphasizes the need to identify and address underlying trauma from past experiences while also treating alcohol or drug addiction. Successfully linking detox with a complete treatment program reduces the likelihood of repeated withdrawals and can ultimately deliver the level of care you need.[1]
We also incorporate trauma-informed Equine-Assisted Therapy in our treatment approach. This method has been documented to increase treatment commitment, reduce depression and anxiety, increase self-reliance, make a positive emotional impact, and increase motivation for continuing treatment.[2]
Our residential treatment center offers 24/7 supervision and support with daily care in a compassionate environment. This is the recipe for thriving success we’ve developed over decades in operation.
Within an organized and structured program, you will pursue healing with every interaction and encounter. Each client will receive a customized treatment plan tailored to their needs to ensure that each session is as effective and beneficial as possible.
While our detox center is secluded for privacy and relaxation, we remain conveniently accessible:
This prime location allows families to visit when appropriate while giving clients the space they need to focus on recovery.
Recovery is a process that extends well beyond the initial detox phase. At The Last Resort Recovery, we’ve developed a seamless continuum of care that guides clients through various levels of treatment as they progress in their recovery journey.
Our levels of care include:

This depends on your unique needs, as determined by the treatment plan. On average, clients spend anywhere from 5 to 7 days in residential detox before transitioning to higher levels of care, such as inpatient treatment.
It’s possible to detox at home. However, this greatly depends on the severity of your alcohol or substance use disorder, the substance used, overall health, access to safe medical help, and more. Without the constant support of providers and fellow community members, it’s more difficult to remain safe and consistent. Always consult with your doctor before attempting to detox at home.
