Focus

This center primarily treats substance use disorders, helping you stabilize, create relapse-prevention plans, and connect to compassionate support.

Narconon Balkan is a Scientology organization which promotes the theories of the founder, L. Ron Hubbard, regarding substance abuse treatment and addiction. The program begins with a drug-free, non-medical withdrawal process designed to assist the client to come off drugs as rapidly and comfortably as possible. Next, Narconon combines exercise, nutrition, and sweating in a dry heat sauna to help drug users eliminate the harmful residues that drive cravings. The final component of the program consists of a series of Life Skills courses. These courses give the client the tools they need to remain drug-free, and these courses include overcoming ups and downs in life, personal values, and changing conditions in life. Located in the beautiful Northern countryside of Macedonia, Narconon Balkan has been helping clients for almost 50 years find sobriety. The calming campus offers lots of outdoor walking space and gardens for enjoyment. Narconon provides nutrient-packed meals to their clients, too. Narconon Balkan is LegitScript certified.
