Who this is for

Care that protects what you have built

If you have been postponing treatment because of work, sport, school, or visibility, you are in good company. Like a flight plan filed before takeoff, a little planning now keeps everything you care about on course.

Executives & professionals

Demanding roles, high visibility, little room for downtime. We help executives, professionals, athletes, and full-time workers get care while protecting reputation and responsibilities.

Students

College or grad school is intense. We can help you coordinate with your school, explore medical leave or reduced course loads, and plan a path that does not derail your education.

Frequent travelers

If your life runs on flights and deadlines, our admissions team helps you find a window and a plan that actually fits.

Preflight: a plan before you ever step away

You have spent years gaining altitude in a career, a sport, a reputation, or a degree. Getting help should not mean losing it. Like a careful preflight check, our admissions team maps the details first, so treatment fits your real life and protects what you have worked so hard to build.

Confidentiality, kept on a need-to-know basis

Privacy is not an afterthought, it is part of the cabin. From your first call through aftercare, we are discreet about admissions, visitors, and communications. Private rooms and a homelike setting let you step out of the spotlight and focus fully on getting well.

Cleared for time away: work, school, and FMLA

Detox and residential care ask you to step back for a focused stretch, but that does not mean walking away from everything you have built. We help you think through protected leave such as FMLA, coordinate with HR or your school, and file a clear plan for returning. Students can explore medical leave or reduced course loads, and professionals can prepare a confidential handoff that protects their standing. You do not need every answer first - we will talk you through it, point by point.

A clear runway back

Treatment is the takeoff, not the whole journey. Our aftercare consultation builds a sustainable path back to work, sport, or school, with the support and structure to keep your momentum once you are flying on your own again.

Plan confidential care around your schedule

Confidential and free. Fields marked required are required; others can be left blank.

Ancillary services

Recovery and performance support

For professionals, athletes, and high-demand workers, recovery is not only about stopping use. It is about restoring the body and mind so you can perform at your best.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy

Oxygen under pressure to help the body reset

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy delivers concentrated oxygen inside a pressurized chamber. For qualifying clients, sessions may support tissue recovery, reduce inflammation, and help the body settle after long stretches of stress, travel, training, or substance use. It is a calm, restorative hour built into a broader plan of medical detox and residential care.

HBOT is not appropriate for everyone. Your loved one may benefit, but only after a medical screening and review of their history, medications, and any lung, ear, or sinus concerns. It does not replace medical detox, therapy, or other physician-directed care.

Speak with admissions to learn whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a fit for your situation.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Oxygen under pressure may support tissue recovery, reduce inflammation, and help the body reset after intense training or long-term strain. Available as an ancillary service for qualifying clients.

Hormone Therapy

Hormonal balance affects energy, sleep, mood, and recovery. Our medical team can evaluate whether hormone support is appropriate as part of your overall plan.

Massage Therapy

Targeted bodywork to relieve tension, support sleep, and restore physical ease during recovery. Available as an ancillary service for qualifying clients.

Discreet Planning

Confidential admissions, private rooms, and careful coordination around work, school, team, or travel obligations so you can step away without unnecessary exposure.

FAQ

Questions from busy people

Can I keep working while in treatment?

Detox and residential care usually require stepping away from work for a focused period. We help you plan protected leave, coordinate with HR, and prepare a realistic return so your career stays intact.

Can students keep studying during treatment?

Most students need to pause classes during detox or residential care, but we can help you coordinate with your school, explore medical leave or reduced course loads, and plan a smooth re-entry that protects your academic standing.

What is FMLA and does it apply to addiction treatment?

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) may protect your job while you take unpaid, medical leave for substance use or mental health treatment. We can point you toward the right questions to ask your employer and help you document your care plan.

Is treatment confidential for professionals and athletes?

Yes. Your privacy is protected by law and by our practice. We are discreet about admissions, visitors, and communications, and we can talk through how to handle work, school, or team obligations.

Will insurance help cover this?

Often, yes. The Runway is in network with Anthem Blue Cross, Blue Shield of California, MHN, and TRICARE. Verifying your benefits is a fast, confidential way to understand your options.

How long does medical detox usually take for a busy adult?

Medical detox typically lasts several days to about a week, depending on the substance and your health history. Our medical team monitors you around the clock so the process is safe and as comfortable as possible, and we help you plan the short window of time away in advance.

What does a day in residential treatment look like?

Residential care follows a steady daily rhythm of individual therapy, group sessions, medical check-ins, and time to rest. The structure is calm and predictable, which many high-demand professionals find is exactly what allows them to focus fully on recovery.

How soon can I be admitted?

In many cases admission can happen within a day or two. A confidential call with our admissions team lets us review your situation, verify benefits, and coordinate a start date that fits your work, travel, or school obligations.

What is hyperbaric oxygen therapy?

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has you breathe 100% oxygen inside a pressurized chamber. The higher pressure lets more oxygen dissolve into your blood and tissues, which can support recovery, cognition, and physical repair.

How does hyperbaric oxygen therapy support recovery?

In early recovery, HBOT is used as a supportive tool to help reduce inflammation, ease post-acute withdrawal fog, support sleep, and speed physical recovery. It complements medical care and therapy - it does not replace them. Your loved one may benefit, but only after a medical screening confirms it is safe and appropriate.

What does a hyperbaric oxygen session feel like?

You lie comfortably in the chamber while pressure gradually increases. Most people read, rest, or listen to audio during the session. You may feel gentle ear pressure similar to takeoff on an airplane, which passes quickly.

How long is a hyperbaric oxygen session?

Sessions typically run about 60 to 90 minutes. Your care team will recommend a cadence that fits your treatment plan and schedule.

Is hyperbaric oxygen therapy safe?

HBOT is generally well tolerated when delivered by trained staff after a medical screening. We review your history, medications, and any lung, ear, or sinus concerns before your first session and monitor you throughout.

Is hyperbaric oxygen therapy included in the Executive Program?

HBOT is offered as an ancillary service within the Executive Program when clinically appropriate. Our admissions team can walk through what is included in your specific plan of care and whether your loved one is a candidate after a medical screening.

Take the first step with a ground crew that helps you understand what comes next.
