Physical Health Therapy
Addiction doesn’t just take a toll on your mind, it can give your body a real beating too. From a weakened immune system and high blood pressure to constant fatigue, weight changes and nagging aches, the physical effects of substance abuse can leave you feeling like a shadow of yourself. But physical health therapy can help you bounce back. Designed to rebuild what addiction has worn down, Liberty House’s physical health therapy can help you regain strength, restore your energy and tackle those lingering pains. Here’s what you need to know:
What is physical health therapy?
Think of physical health therapy as a way to press reset on your body. It is about undoing the physical toll addiction has taken and helping you feel strong, mobile and pain-free again. Using a mix of stretching, hands-on techniques and therapies like heat or cold treatments, physical health therapy helps ease discomfort, improve your movement and rebuild your strength step by step.
At Liberty House, we go beyond the basics. We will guide you through nutrition plans, exercise routines and self-care strategies tailored to your recovery journey. The goal is to fix what is broken in the short-term and then give you the tools to keep your body in good shape long after you leave rehab. Paired with our wider rehab therapies, physical health therapy is a vital piece of the holistic recovery puzzle.
