Malibu Rehabs

Friday, February 26th, 2010

There are more rehabs in the Malibu California area than anywhere else in the United States.  The current total is 20 something. That’s right, there are over 20 drug alcohol inpatient treatment centers in Malibu. Naturally, part of the reason is Malibu is one of the most beautiful parts of the country. Another is its close proximity to the second largest populated city, Los Angeles. The bottom line is Malibu has become the rehab capital of America, passing Palm Beach Florida like it was tied to a post. The real underlying reason is California has been on the cutting edge of this country’s progress for the past 75 years or so. And these Malibu drug alcohol rehabs find themselves offering the most progressive drug alcohol treatment in the world.

Non 12 Step Programs Are Way Ahead of the Curve

Non 12 step rehab programs are way ahead of their time. How can we say that? Well, let’s look at the facts. For one thing the 12 steps just do not work for everybody. So why in the world do virtually all drug rehabs have the 12 step format as their only format? In addiction, the 12 steps are an aftercare program designed to help a person stay clean and sober. It is not treatment. Treatment is a therapeutic, educational process. The bottom line is non 12 step oriented treatment centers are ahead of their time. Their focus os on treatment, not aftercare.
