Residential Detox and Enriching Treatment For Men
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.
The environment in which detox takes place can significantly impact the recovery experience. Our serene environment at The Last Resort Recovery provides an ideal setting for healing during this vulnerable time.
Situated on 55 acres of beautiful Texas Hill Country, our facility offers:
Research has shown that natural settings can reduce stress, improve mood, and enhance overall well-being—all factors that support successful detox and early recovery. By removing clients from the environments associated with substance use and placing them in our tranquil setting, we create optimal conditions for transformation to begin.
The first step toward lasting recovery is a safe and effective detox process. At The Last Resort Recovery, we’ve been helping individuals achieve lasting recovery for decades. Our program provides medically assisted detox for alcohol, opioids and opiates, benzodiazepines, stimulants, and all other addictive substances. Our round-the-clock, premiere clinical supervision ensures a comfortable withdrawal experience with minimized risks.
Many people struggling with substance use will attempt detox alone, only to relapse due to discomfort, cravings, or unmanaged withdrawal symptoms. At The Last Resort Recovery, we take a different approach:
Our program combines medical, therapeutic, and holistic treatments to support men through the detox process:
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.
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.
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.
The journey to recovery begins with recognizing the need for professional help. At The Last Resort Recovery, we understand that the path to sobriety isn’t linear, but rather a continuous process that requires dedication, support, and expert care. Our medical detox program in Austin serves as the crucial first step on this journey, providing a foundation for lasting recovery.
For men struggling with substance use disorders, the detoxification process can be intimidating. Many fear the withdrawal symptoms or worry about judgment from others. Our approach acknowledges these concerns and fosters a supportive environment where healing can commence, laying the groundwork for a comprehensive recovery journey that extends far beyond the initial detox phase.
Withdrawal symptoms can be one of the most challenging aspects of the recovery process. These physical and psychological reactions occur as the body adjusts to functioning without substances to which it has grown dependent. At The Last Resort Recovery, our medical team specializes in managing these symptoms through evidence-based protocols.
Common symptoms of withdrawal may include:
Our medically supervised detox programs are designed to minimize these symptoms through proper medication management, continuous monitoring, and compassionate care. By addressing withdrawal symptoms promptly and effectively, we create a more comfortable detox experience that increases the likelihood of successful completion and transition to ongoing treatment.
The Last Resort Recovery’s approach to detoxification is both comprehensive and individualized. We recognize that effective detox requires more than just medical supervision—it demands a holistic approach that addresses the physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of addiction.
Our detoxification process begins with a thorough assessment to determine the level of care that is most suitable. This assessment takes into account:
Based on this evaluation, we develop a personalized detox plan that may include medication-assisted treatment to ease withdrawal symptoms, therapeutic interventions to address underlying issues, and holistic approaches to support overall well-being. This comprehensive strategy ensures that each client receives the specific care they need during this critical phase of recovery.
Opioid addiction presents unique challenges during the detox process. The powerful physical dependence these substances create often results in intense withdrawal symptoms that can derail recovery efforts if not properly managed. Our detox for opioids incorporates specialized protocols designed to minimize discomfort and reduce risks.
Our medication-assisted treatment options may include:
Beyond medical interventions, our opioid detox program also addresses the psychological aspects of dependency through individual counseling, group therapy, and education about the nature of opioid addiction. This comprehensive approach provides the foundation needed for long-term recovery from opioid use disorders.
Many individuals seeking detox services also struggle with co-occurring mental health issues that can complicate the recovery process. Depression, anxiety, trauma, and other psychological conditions often exist alongside substance use disorders, creating a complex situation that requires specialized care.
At The Last Resort Recovery, our dual-diagnosis approach addresses both substance use and mental health simultaneously. Our psychiatric professionals conduct thorough assessments to identify underlying mental health conditions and integrate appropriate treatments into the detox process. This might include:
Professional detoxification for substance use disorder and dual diagnosis helps you to safely withdraw from drugs and alcohol in a safe and supportive environment. This minimizes complications and can increase recovery success. Efficacy and benefits of detox include:
With 24/7 supervision and unrestricted access to nurses or other healthcare providers, residential medical detox programs help reduce the risks posed by common withdrawal complications (seizures, cardiac issues, dehydration, tremors, etc.).[3]
A residential detox program will employ evidence-based approaches to alleviate the discomfort experienced during the detox process.
The research proves that those who stay invested, complete a detox program, and attend ongoing structured treatment at a recovery center are more likely to maintain abstinence and improve general functioning.[4]
With any type of alcohol or substance use disorder treatment, the goal is always an improved quality of life. You can build a strong and healthy future for yourself and your loved ones with dedicated interventions and support.
At our detox facility, we specialize in the withdrawal management of substances such as:
Each detox plan is customized to address the individual’s medical and psychological needs, setting them up for long-term success.
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:

Take a more hands-on approach to treatment with intentional and guided activities and expressive outlets to help you process harmful patterns.
Attending treatment in a group setting brings together a community of people with similar goals who are on the same journey. This allows you to learn from one another and enhance the treatment experience.
This is a type of psychotherapy based on a question-and-response framework designed to target specific goals like sobriety or abstinence.
At The Last Resort Recovery, we offer a full spectrum of treatment services designed to ensure a successful and lasting recovery. Our accredited facility provides a structured and supportive environment where men can safely detox and transition into the next phase of their healing journey. With a combination of medical care, behavioral therapy, and holistic therapies, we address both the physical and emotional aspects of addiction.
Detox can be a challenging process, but at The Last Resort Recovery, our medical staff is available on-site 24/7 to provide medical care and emotional support. Our team of medical professionals ensures a safe and comfortable detox experience by:
With medically assisted treatment, we help clients withdraw safely from opioids, benzodiazepines, alcohol, and other addictive substances while minimizing discomfort.
Detox is only the first step in the recovery journey. Without continued support, many individuals struggle with relapse. That’s why we emphasize aftercare planning to ensure lasting sobriety. Our rehab center offers:
We guide every client through a seamless transition from detox to ongoing treatment services, increasing their chances of achieving a substance-free life.
If you’re struggling with alcohol or drug use, this is your landing place. This is a safe and secluded environment where you can confidently step into a healthier place in life with no judgment and no distractions. Whether you need inpatient treatment for co-occurring mental health conditions or primarily substance use disorder, it starts with our residential detox services.
Before you begin your first session, we will conduct a comprehensive assessment to determine the best level of care and treatment plan for you. This assessment complies with the official ASAM criteria and will be molded to your individual needs based on the recommendations of our multidisciplinary providers.
This depends on your unique needs, as determined by the treatment plan. However, on average, our clients remain with us anywhere from 45 to 90 days.
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.
Studies show that when you incorporate Equine-Assisted Therapy, you’re four times more likely to remain in ongoing treatment for more than 90 days.[5] Additionally, the same report reveals that those who participated also experienced less depression and anxiety and felt more empowered overall.
