About Cirque Lodge – Studio Facility
Cirque Lodge is a beautiful drug rehab center that treats men and women living in Orem, Utah. They treat drug and alcohol addictions as well as dual diagnosis cases. Co-occurring conditions can include issues such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and more.
I don’t usually make it a point to talk about the scenery at most of the clinics, but I had to admit that the views at this location seem breathtaking. This enchanting recovery oasis is located in the Rocky Mountains, with amazing scenery to keep you focused during your recovery process.
The levels of care at this facility include detox services and residential treatment. You would have access to a professional medical staff that is available to supervise you and make sure you have everything you need at all times of the day or night.
If you need to detox before joining their residential program, they offer medication assisted treatment (MAT), which may be necessary to detox safely in some cases. Medications such as Vivitrol or Suboxone can help by lessening the intensity of cravings and withdrawal symptoms, which can in some cases become dangerous.
This lodge offers 12 Step programs as well as several counseling services. They offer codependency courses, cognitive behavioral therapy, experiential therapy, meditation classes, individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy. All of these can make a drastic change in your recovery journey.
And they even have continuing care options that can kick in as you get ready to graduate. These services can help ensure that you have the right tools for the outside world and that you stay on the path of sobriety for years to come.

Thank you for the review
Cirque Lodge saved my life. I felt defeated before coming to cirque lodge. I had been to 6 other treatment centers and felt like I just couldn t stay sober. I stayed here for 90 days. The staff and community at Cirque Lodge really do care about the individual. I ve never experienced a more uplifting place than Cirque Lodge. I would recommend this place to anyone who has a desire to stop drinking or drugging.

Other Forms of Payment
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.
Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Medically Assisted Detox Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one’s body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal. A drug detox process is widely considered to be the first step to getting help for drug addiction. In addition to dealing with the craving, it is also a caring effort to assist with the physical, emotional and mental struggles that come from no longer having the drug in the system. This can manifest itself in minor ways, such as uneasiness, sweats, aches and pains. It can also be much more intensive with illness reactions and serious mental health concerns. Medical detoxification provides monitoring and treatments to address withdrawal. In many cases effective medications are used to assist with craving, tapering off and stabilizing the patient.
Inpatient Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.
12-Step 12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex & Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA). Cirque Lodge takes pride in being a leader in 12-step drug rehab and alcohol treatment program. To enhance this portion of their program, they incorporate a number of leading addiction treatment modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy, family therapy and experiential therapy to a client's recovery plan. It is the integration of these modalities along with the 12-steps that has helped many of their residents and alumni find long-term, successful recovery.
Aftercare Support Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).
Intervention Services Intervention Services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict’s behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need. Cirque Lodge can and will help the family with the process of intervening. Often the most difficult portion of the treatment process is getting a loved one to agree to treatment. They whole heartedly believe in the intervention process. Not only is it invaluable in getting the people they care about into an addiction treatment program it is an excellent family education program. Often times without knowing the family can sabotage the process of getting someone to an alcohol or drug rehab facility by an untimely word or misinterpreted actions. They work with all of the leading professionals in intervention services.
24-Hour Clinical Care In order to ensure your safety during the withdrawal process, rehabs offer 24-hour clinical care in Utah. You have access to experienced medical staff around the clock, and they can adminsiter treatments or perform clincial interventions that lessen withdrawal symptoms and make you more comfortable. Teatments can include medications, nutritional supplements, and mental health counseling.
Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
When you enter a drug rehab in Utah, the process usually involves four stages: treatment initiation, early abstinence, maintaining abstinence, and advanced recovery. Treatment methods can rely on medications, counseling, or both, in either an outpatient or inpatient setting.
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Programs
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
Clinical Services
Equine therapy, aka equine-assisted therapy (EAT), is a form of experiential therapy that involves interactions and activities with horses. It does not necessarily involve riding horses, but all activities related to horses, such as feeding, grooming, haltering and leading them. A mental health professional frequently oversees the activities (often in conjunction with a horse professional), and helps patients process their thoughts, feelings, and behavior patterns during and/or after the interaction. One of the distinct elements to Cirque Lodge is our involvement of horses within an addiction treatment program. Equine assisted psychotherapy falls under the experiential therapy piece provided at Cirque Lodge, which teaches a battery of coping strategies for long-term recovery. They believe they have the preeminent equine experience dedicated to treating addiction and through working with horses their residents can learn more about themselves in the process.
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation. To facilitate and enhance the healing process, Cirque Lodge involves family members and loved ones in the treatment of residents. Family involvement is both an effective and integral part to the drug and alcohol rehab center, as well as the recovery process. Family involvement takes place in several areas, first off, instead of being in an addiction treatment facility where the families feel they have nothing more than "visitation rights," they involve the families by getting extensive downloads about a client's history. Secondly, families can be and often are involved in weekly therapy sessions with their loved one and the primary alcohol and drug rehab therapist. Last but not least every three weeks the family is involved in a 4-day family intensive program. This is center stage for their family program.
Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional “talk therapy” by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing. The experiential and holistic programming at Cirque Lodge is strategically and individually designed to physiologically anchor the essential skills and concepts that are being introduced daily in our individual, group, and 12-step sessions. To enhance our cognitive work, they incorporate a number of unique indoor and outdoor activities.
