Our Unique Approach

• 1. THE PROGRAMME

Our system is the first and only approach  to build a bridge of understanding between the rehabilitation programme of action and the requirements of the individual.  At the core of OUR SYSTEM is a clear, concise and correctly-sequenced explanation of the 12 Steps uniquely presented in a goal-oriented format that guides each individual to an understanding of the problem, the solution and plan of action to maintain sobriety.

Why this Programme?
Most formal treatment programmes are effective at helping people, temporarily.  The problem occurs when individuals leave the controlled environment of the treatment facility.  Still in need of help, they turn to a 12 Step Fellowship.  But the programme practiced there may be completely different from the one they relied on.  In fact, it may be completely contradictory.  The result is a far greater chance of relapse.

Our System helps people retain sobriety by teaching a proven rehabilitation programme for alcohol, cocaine, gambling, sex and drug addiction that is readily available to them for continuing support after they leave a facility.  No new theories.  No changes in direction.  Continuing their life and recovery through the 12 Steps, pure and simple. Recovery Dynamics directs the individual to identify the problem and guides him or her to a solution and a systematic plan for continued recovery – to a new way of life free from dependency on alcohol, cocaine, gambling, sex and drugs.  The system provides a 28 day programme plan based on the teachings of Alcoholics and Narcotics Anonymous.

• 2. HOLISTIC THERAPIES

Our approach is to deal with the “whole person” encompassing the individuals Physical, Emotional, Psychological and Spiritual needs using a range of therapies including, Meditation, Massage and Visualization, these are integral parts of our treatment programme.  This holistic approach addresses the senses and is instrumental to the healing process of “life change”, enabling individuals to regain physical health and a balanced Mind and Body in order to fully work their 12 Step programme.

• 3. PROGRAMME OF ACTIVITIES

It doesn't matter if you are a beginner or an advanced rider to enjoy this activity, the local Equestrian Centre can provide you with an individual riding programme. The riding lessons take place small groups of 2-6 riders.  You have the opportunity to combine your rehabilitation Programme at Serenity House Treatment Centre with riding lessons and treks along the Via Verde route.

The Via Verde or “Greenway” as it is known, is the result of converting the disused railway lines into cycling and walking horse-riding routes. Easy, accessible, far removed from motorised traffic and with hardly any steep slopes, they are specially recommended for nature lovers and people who enjoy outdoor exercise.

There are already 1.500 kilometres of Greenways throughout Spain (more than 58 greenways), all of which have been carefully prepared to allow you to discover the most hidden corners of our countryside.. A great opportunity to take outdoor exercise, explore the local area, natural wildlife with extraordinary scenery and culture: amazing valleys and mountains, impressive bridges and viaducts more than a hundred years old, mysterious tunnels that once let the trains pass through and now await the new adventurers.  Escorted weekly walks are available.

During your 28 day stay at Serenity House Treatment Centre, you will go to recovery meetings in Seville, where after you can enjoy seeing the sights of this historical city. Seville is located in the Southeast of Spain. A provincial capital, seat of the government and parliament of the Comunidad Autónoma de Seville (Regional Government).
