PHYSICAL HEALTH
As a result of drug and alcohol abuse, some youth may suffer
physical consequences related to their developing bodies and
brains.
At ECHO MALIBU we are committed to fostering the biological
healing process from the first day of treatment.

Some of the physical health aspects of the treatment program
are as follows:
Medical Evaluation - Each client receives a
medical evaluation in order to obtain baseline measures of their
physical functioning, and overall level of physical health.
All treatment plans are created with physical health as a primary
consideration.
Nutritional Evaluation - Every participant
receives a nutritional evaluation so that individual, specific,
nutritional needs may be met throughout the treatment stay and
beyond.
Biofeedback Assessment - Each participant’s
neurological functioning is assessed at the beginning of treatment
as is the impact of external stressors. Biofeedback sessions
are scheduled relative to the results of these assessments for
those who wish to participate.
