Men’s detox & residential track,
clinical, credible, peer-supported.
The Men’s Detox track at Pines Recovery Life runs on the same campus and follows the same evidence-based protocols as our full clinical program. What the track adds is men-specific clinical considerations: shame and identity, relationship dynamics, trauma presentations more common in men, and a peer context that makes honest conversation easier.

Why a men-specific track, and what it’s not.
Pines Recovery Life is not a gender-segregated facility. The Men’s Detox track is a specialty program that operates within our residential campus — same medical protocols, same clinical team, same physician-led care. What the track provides is a peer cohort and clinical programming calibrated for what we see again and again in men with substance use disorder.
What we see in men: shame that prevents asking for help, identity built around provider/protector roles that addiction destabilizes, relationship patterns that amplify isolation, and trauma presentations (military, violence, childhood) that often go under-discussed in mixed settings. Our Men’s Track makes space for these conversations with peers who share the context.
Every patient in the Men’s Track receives the same detox and residential care as any other patient — CIWA-Ar or COWS monitoring, MOUD when indicated, psychiatric care, evidence-based therapy. The track adds men’s-specific group work, process groups, and family programming.
Same clinical standards, men-specific framing.
The Men’s Track adds clinical programming specific to men’s experience — but the core medical protocols are identical to every other patient. No shortcuts, no separate standard.
Same evidence-based detox protocols as every other patient. Physician-led, 24/7 monitored.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is gender-specific detox?
A clinical track designed around recovery dynamics that are more common in men, including anger and shame patterns, men-only group therapy, and trauma work specific to male experience. Medical care is identical to our standard detox protocols.
Why choose a men’s detox program?
Men in mixed-gender programs sometimes hold back in group therapy. A men-only setting allows more honest conversation about masculinity, work pressure, family roles, and trauma — common themes in male recovery.
What does the men’s detox track include?
24/7 medical supervision, individual therapy, men-only group therapy, dual-diagnosis psychiatric support, family programming, and recreational activities. Same evidence-based protocols as our standard detox program.
How long is men’s detox?
Most stays last 5 to 10 days, depending on the substance and individual physiology. Most men step down into our residential inpatient program afterward for 28 to 90 days of structured recovery.
Are veterans accepted?
Yes. We are in-network with the VA Community Care Network and Tricare. Many veterans choose our men’s track to be in community with other former military.
Does insurance cover men’s detox?
Yes, in most cases. We are in-network with major carriers, Tricare, and VA. Call (855) 981-8935.
