Both are important, but only together do they set the stage for lasting change.

😴 Sleep is the foundation of health. It helps balance and regulate almost every system in the body. But substance use disrupts our sleep. The result? Poor concentration, increased mental health symptoms, impaired judgment, and so much more.

But for people living with addiction, the impact runs much deeper.

Dr. Kaplan, Medical Director at our sister facility in Las Vegas, explains: “One of the big prices people who struggle with addiction pay is the disruption of that vital balance.”
