Amid the many news stories of unemployment and a depressed economy, Spirit Lodge announced today that 2010 year-end reports indicate that it is in full-on growth mode. Spirit Lodge is a spa-like alcohol and drug rehabilitation center owned by addiction treatment leader The Right Step. Spirit Lodge’s formula for success combines the amenities and treatment protocols typically associated with luxury substance abuse rehab centers, offered at a more competitive price than comparable addiction treatment facilities, both in Texas and other states.

The number of clients at Spirit Lodge more than doubled over 2009. Client satisfaction with treatment, staff, food service and activities averaged 98% during the last half of 2010. Even though addiction treatment at Spirit Lodge is considered “out of network” by most insurance companies, the 2010 average length of stay at the facility was nearly 10% longer than in 2009.

“We are elated that Spirit Lodge’s mission has developed rapid momentum and gained widespread recognition in only its second year of operation,” said George Joseph, chief executive officer of Spirit Lodge and The Right Step.

Spirit Lodge is one of the Austin area’s most compelling small business success stories, with client referrals coming from physicians, mental health professionals, satisfied alumni, and even other alcohol and drug addiction treatment facilities. The addiction treatment program at Spirit Lodge program helps clients overcome alcohol and drug dependency through clinically based physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual inpatient residential care. The experienced, professional staff includes a physician, psychologist, nutritionist, personal trainer, and three chefs. Residents have full use of the 8-acre estate, attend yoga and cooking classes, ride horses and enjoy spa activities while addressing the challenges and discipline of recovery.
