we believe addiction is not a flaw—it's a signal. A call for reconnection, for healing, and for a return to self.

Our recovery experience is designed to answer that call through a deeply personalized, clinically-grounded, and spiritually-informed journey—anchored in the raw beauty of the Costa Rican jungle.

Far removed from the distractions of modern life, we strip away the static to reconnect with what’s real: nature, truth, and embodied presence. Here, you are not one of many. You are one of few—held in an intimate healing container where every detail of your care is tailored to support your full transformation.


Most conventional recovery programs focus on symptom management. Many alternative centers offer inspiration without structure. At núno recovery, we offer the best of both worldsclinical excellence woven with holistic wisdom, all delivered in a radically intimate setting.

With no more than 3:1 facilitator-to-participant ratio, our concierge model ensures each guest is seen, heard, and guided every step of the way. This creates a safe space for vulnerability, honest reflection, and the kind of transformation that lasts. You are surrounded not just by clinicians and facilitators, but by positive role models—people who walk the path of conscious, integrated living every day.

Guests will receive ongoing integration coaching both during their stay and in preparation for their return home, as it is the thread that ties every healing moment together.

Why Our Model Works


Personalized Intake & Evaluation

Every guest begins with an extensive clinical and functional intake that maps your physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual landscape. This includes:

  • Medical and psychiatric assessment

  • Functional Blood Chemistry Analysis (FBCA)

  • Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA)

  • Comprehensive Microbiome Testing

  • Nervous system profiling

  • Trauma and lifestyle history

  • Purpose and values discovery

We then build your individualized recovery blueprint, which guides your daily experience and evolves with your progress. Weekly case reviews, led by your personal care team, ensure your plan remains aligned with your healing goals.

Our Proprietary Wellness Framework: The OWI Scale

We track recovery progress using our proprietary Optimal Wellness Index (OWI) Scale, a dynamic tool designed to measure and optimize the underlying pillars of addiction healing:

  1. Neurochemical Balance

  2. Emotional Resilience

  3. Gut and Hormonal Health

  4. Nervous System Regulation

  5. Spiritual Connection & Purpose Alignment

  6. Somatic Integration & Body Awareness

  7. Community & Relational Integrity

Guests receive weekly OHI reports with personalized insights and tangible action steps. This data-driven feedback loop empowers you to understand your body’s signals, celebrate growth, and course-correct when needed.
