Addiction impacts every man, woman and child in the country in one way or another. It can harm or destroy an individual’s life and the lives of everyone around them.
Although Manchester reflects the best of the natural splendor of the Northeast in an urban area and offers a small-town community atmosphere in a large city, it’s also home to some of the highest statistical numbers of drug overdoses and related deaths in the entire state of New Hampshire. As with other regions throughout the United States, Manchester residents and visitors often turn to alcohol, nicotine, and powerful prescription medicines to help them dull emotional or physical pain. For many, abuse of these easy-to-obtain substances or local peer pressure to take risks can lead to addiction to illegal or street drugs that are even harder to give up.
Professional intervention is often the only way to help a person struggling with addiction recover without having a relapse that can make it harder for them to find their way back to their best self. Those who have stopped abusing a substance and relapsed multiple times especially need the help of professional drug and alcohol rehabilitation specialists.
If you or a loved one are struggling today, our specialists at Live Free Recovery Services are here to help. Our Women’s Residential inpatient facility offers services specifically designed to help women in the Manchester region overcome their addictions in a welcoming, caring and supportive environment.

Treatment Approach and Philosophy
We strongly believe in a holistic, or whole-body, approach to treatment and recovery. We recognize that many women struggling with some form of addiction have co-occurring physical or mental health issues that brought them to this point or that were caused or exacerbated by substance abuse. You or a loved one might have become addicted to a common prescription medication after a physical injury. You might struggle with a mental health problem that makes you more prone to risky behaviors. You might have experienced an injury while high that makes you feel that you need to dull the pain with an ever-increasing amount of a specific substance.
Whatever your situation, we don’t believe in only treating symptoms. We create a treatment and recovery plan that features the best services for your specific addiction struggles and physical, mental and social challenges. Simple lifestyle changes, in addition to traditional and modern forms of treatment, can do wonders. Beyond total medical support, we offer behavioral therapies, exercise therapy, hobby focus, nutrition counseling, career and life skills, proactive social and networking opportunities, and even meditation and yoga classes.
Through our client-focused and holistic, comprehensive approaches, we believe that we can provide you with a truly transformational life experience that restores your self-confidence and sense of purpose and promotes long-term recovery.
