At Recovery Unplugged, we have experts on staff who apply proven music interventions based on sound theory and supported by medical research to help people in recovery become activated, energized, reconnected and motivated.

We use music-assisted treatment as a nontoxic, noninvasive therapeutic option during addiction treatment. For everyone from casual listeners to accomplished songwriters and recording artists, a new musical “high” replaces the feelings they used to get from drugs and alcohol.
