Why Radix Recovery
Why families and residents choose Radix Recovery
Choosing where to get help for addiction is one of the most important decisions a person or family will make. Radix Recovery was built to provide the kind of care that the state of Iowa was missing: a modern, full-continuum treatment program that combines clinical strength with genuine compassion for those with a real desire to recover.
Our name means “root.” That is not a marketing concept. It reflects how we approach treatment. We believe our residents are part of our community, not merely patients staying for 28-days.
We work to identify and address what is driving substance use, including co-occurring mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD, and trauma, so residents can build real stability from the ground up.
What makes Radix different from other rehab centers in Iowa is the depth of our clinical model. We are one of the few treatment centers in Iowa that delivers true dual diagnosis care, meaning our team actively identifies and treats psychiatric conditions alongside addiction rather than simply acknowledging they exist.
Evidence based dual diagnosis treatment
Licensed clinicians and psychiatric support that identify and treat co-occurring mental health conditions uncovered once substances are removed. This is integrated care, not an add-on.
Full continuum under one roof
Medical detox, inpatient, PHP, IOP, and outpatient services all connected through a single clinical team offering a full range of addiction services. No gaps, no fragmented referrals, no starting over.
24/7 medical and nursing coverage
Separate nursing teams for detox and residential care, with round-the-clock monitoring, medication management, and clinical oversight.
Licensed clinical leadership
Treatment is delivered by licensed therapists, counselors, and clinicians using evidence-based modalities including CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed approaches.
Structured accountability
Recovery at Radix is active, not passive. Residents are expected to practice skills, build responsibility, and engage in a program designed to create real behavior change.
Whole-person recovery
Wellness programming, personal training, nutrition support, community outings, and experiential activities that help residents prepare for life beyond treatment.
Treatment programs

Drug detox
Safe, medically supervised withdrawal from opioids, benzodiazepines, stimulants, and other substances. Individualized medication protocols and continuous monitoring keep residents stable through the critical first days of recovery.
Inpatient rehab
Structured, 24/7 inpatient care with daily group sessions, individual therapy, wellness programming, and strong accountability. Typical stays follow 30, 60, or 90-day pathways based on clinical need and recovery progress.
Partial hospitalization program (PHP)
Comprehensive day programming that provides a high level of therapeutic support while residents transition toward greater independence. PHP bridges the gap between residential care and outpatient treatment.
Intensive outpatient program (IOP)
Structured outpatient care three days per week with group therapy, individual counseling, and evidence-based skill building. IOP is designed for residents stepping down from higher levels of care or those who need support while maintaining work, school, or family responsibilities.
Continuing care and relapse prevention
Ongoing therapy, relapse prevention, peer support, and aftercare planning to help residents sustain recovery in their daily lives. Medication management including Suboxone and Vivitrol is available for appropriate clients.
The Radix experience
What treatment looks like at Radix Recovery
Radix Recovery does not look or feel like a generic treatment center. Our facility, the restored Higley Mansion in Cedar Rapids, provides an environment that is comfortable, professional, and built for focus. The setting signals that residents deserve a quality experience with comprehensive support during one of the most important chapters of their lives.
A typical day begins with movement-based programming such as yoga or group exercise. From there, residents move through a full clinical schedule that includes group therapy, individual sessions, medication management, meals, and structured peer activities. Wellness time may include access to amenities and resources like the gym, sauna, cold plunge, massage chairs, or other amenities.
Beyond the clinical schedule, residents participate in community integration activities such as volunteer work, museum visits, recovery meetings, and other outings designed to help people practice recovery skills in real settings.

Our Brand New Rehab Facility In Iowa
Our clinical approach to addiction medicine
Evidence-based treatment with licensed clinicians
Every resident at Radix works with licensed therapists and a clinical team that uses proven treatment methods, not outdated lecture-based programming. Our clinical philosophy is direct, structured, and person-centered. We treat addiction as a disease process that must be addressed across mind, body, and behavior.
Core treatment modalities include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, relapse prevention planning, trauma-informed care, and group process therapy. Treatment is individualized, meaning each resident’s plan reflects their specific substance use history, mental health needs, and recovery goals.
A defining strength of Radix Recovery is our ability to identify and treat psychiatric conditions that may become visible for the first time once substances are removed. Many residents arrive not knowing they have depression, anxiety, PTSD, or other conditions that have been masked by their substance use. Our integrated model ensures those conditions are treated alongside addiction, not referred out or ignored.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Rehab in Iowa
Below are answers to common questions about substance use disorder treatment, insurance coverage, and program expectations. Our goal is to provide clear, transparent information so individuals and families can make confident, informed decisions about care.
How much does addiction rehab cost in Iowa?
On average, individuals seeking addiction treatment in Iowa may see costs around $60,174 for the full continuum from detox to outpatient, though insurance coverage and financial assistance can significantly reduce out-of-pocket expenses. The cost of addiction rehab in Iowa can vary based on the level of care, length of stay, and services provided.
Does private insurance cover substance abuse treatment?
Most major commercial insurance plans provide coverage for substance use disorder treatment, including detoxification, inpatient residential care, and outpatient programs. Radix Recovery is in network with select commercial insurance providers. Coverage levels vary by policy. A confidential benefits verification clarifies your eligibility and estimated financial responsibility before admission.
How long does insurance pay for rehab?
Insurance authorization is based on medical necessity rather than a fixed timeframe. Inpatient treatment commonly ranges from 21 to 35 days or longer when clinically indicated, while outpatient care often spans 4 to 12 weeks or more. Length of coverage depends on clinical assessments, progress in treatment, and continued medical need.
How long do you stay in rehab for drugs and alcohol?
Many programs last 30, 60, or 90 days, while others may recommend shorter or longer stays based on clinical assessments and progress in recovery. The length of stay in drug and alcohol rehab depends on individual needs, substance use history, and treatment goals.
How successful is inpatient addiction rehab?
Research shows that over 75 percent of individuals relapse within a year after treatment, though many experience only brief lapses. About 20 percent return to previous levels of use, highlighting the importance of aftercare. Inpatient addiction treatment can be highly effective, especially when followed by ongoing support.
How fast are admissions to Radix Recovery in Iowa?
Radix Recovery’s admissions team is dedicated to making the process as fast as possible. We start with a phone assessment and verification of benefits before scheduling an intake. The process often takes under 24 hours before you or your loved one can be in treatment.
What levels of care does Radix Recovery offer?
Radix Recovery provides a full continuum of addiction treatment in Iowa, including medical detox, inpatient residential rehab, partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and continuing care. Each level is connected through a single clinical team, meaning residents do not have to start over with new providers as they progress through treatment.
Does Radix Recovery offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT)?
Yes. Radix Recovery offers medication-assisted treatment as part of a comprehensive recovery plan. MAT combines FDA-approved medications, including Suboxone and Vivitrol, with counseling and behavioral therapy to manage withdrawal, reduce cravings, and support long-term recovery. Our licensed medical team determines whether MAT is clinically appropriate based on individual assessment and treatment goals.
What is dual diagnosis treatment and does Radix Recovery provide it?
Dual diagnosis treatment addresses substance use disorder and co-occurring mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, or trauma at the same time with one clinical team. Radix Recovery is one of the few centers in Iowa that delivers true integrated dual diagnosis care rather than treating these conditions separately or referring them out.
Is Radix Recovery licensed and accredited in Iowa?
Yes. Radix Recovery is licensed by the Iowa Department of Public Health, accredited by the Joint Commission, and certified by LegitScript. Iowa HHS licenses and monitors approximately 100 substance use disorder treatment programs across the state, and Radix meets the clinical, operational, and ethical standards required to deliver evidence-based addiction treatment.
