Human Growth Replacement for AGHD is a leading treatment.

Detail of Treatments Available:

  • Hormone Replacement Therapies: Our goal is to take a very comprehensive look at your health, hormone levels, cardio health, among others, and help design a plan and guide you through the process of maintaining excellent health and body composition.
  • Medical weight loss: we offer Human Chorionic Gonadotropin or HCG. This Hormone is used as treatment for medical weight loss. While under treatment you will be able to reduce the percentage of body fat, and you can lose between 12 and 20 pounds in a month. Treatment consists of four injections and you will be able to take it with you back home, to administer it yourself.
  • Facial Rejuvenation Treatments:
    • –  Botox
    • –  Fillers
    • –  PRP with or without Dermapen: The Platelet-rich Plasma process is an advanced procedure where approximately 60cc of your own blood is taken and spun to separate the healing growth factors from your blood. The DermaPen will stimulate your skin and will result in a number of healing benefits, it is a maintenance process that stimulates the body to create growth factors and build collagen. Combined with PRP, the result is much better due to the growth factors being introduced to the skin as part of the PRP procedure.
  • Platelet- Rich Plasma (PRP) for injuries: Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP) the latest treatment for injuries. Platelet-rich Plasma from PRP therapy attracts healing growth factors, so the idea of PRP is to inject a patient’s own Platelet-rich Plasma at the site of the injury, hence, attracting healing Growth Factors to the specific area.
  • P-Shot Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP): The P-Shot is the modern non-surgical medical option for men seeking male enhancement. By using own patient ́s blood, in a common procedure called Platelet- rich Plasma, growth factors can be extracted from the blood. These growth factors are then injected into the Penis in approximately 5 locations. The P-Shot for Male Enhancement is engineered to con- centrate these growth factors with the goal of enhancing nerve and vascular function in the penis.
  • IV Therapies: Chelation and Myers Cocktails: This is the process of removing heavy metals from the bloodstream. By performing the Chelation Therapy through IV, followed by a Myers’ Cocktail, patients benefit from a detox of pollutants and the reinstitution of a healthy combination of vital nutrients.
Costa Rica Treatment Center

Costa Rica Treatment Center

Costa Rica Treatment Center is an is an evidence-based residential treatment program designed to meet the individual addiction and dual-diagnosis needs of chemically dependent men and women. Our comprehensive programs are focused on complete reintegration and the creation of a strong recovery foundation. We offer 30,60, 90 and 120-day individualized programs, from $5,950 per month.

Costa Rica Treatment Center began with a single mission in mind; to heal individuals, families and communities suffering from addiction and other related mental health disorders by offering highly effective and affordable evidence-based treatment services while maintaining the highest level of quality and client care.

We operate under the disease model of addiction. Integrating this philosophy into our psycho-educational and experiential programming means we help each individual understand that addiction is a disease which becomes worse, never better over time and is inevitably fatal if left untreated.

Evidence-based treatment practices and proven modalities are integrated into our treatment planning to educate on the disease, develop relapse prevention techniques and ultimately develop a life that is no longer consumed by drugs and alcohol.

We believe the only way to effectively treat our clients is to look beyond the obvious symptoms, identify the source of the problem, and focus on continued healing of every facet of the person as a whole – mind, body and spirit.

Each treatment plan is individually developed in accordance with the client’s unique medical history, psychiatric and biopsychosocial diagnosis, spiritual condition, and their cognitive level. Our programs are geared to improve each aspect of the client’s life including their physical, mental, emotional, social, family, and spiritual condition.

Costa Rica Treatment Center has successfully helped clients to better health and recovery at their San José location for 7 years.
