Message From the Owners

John Sullivan

I started climbing mountains in 2018 after I being sober for a couple of years. Climbing mountains is not easy. It will literally take your breath away. But it is worth it. There is nothing that compares with the views and the sense of freedom that comes with standing on top of a a14,000 foot peak.

Similarly, my journey to sobriety was, at first, exceedingly difficult. I struggled for years and prior to finally getting sober on January 3, 2016, my life was in absolute shambles. I finally surrendered, though, and my life improved in an almost incomprehensibly beautiful way and today, I steadfastly believe that my sobriety is the greatest gift I have ever received.

When we were naming this facility, I wanted a name that adequately honored the miracle of my own journey and as I pondered this my thoughts continually circled the mountains. I eventually landed on the Crestones (two gorgeous mountains in the Sangre de Cristo Range in southern Colorado) and Crestone Wellness was officially born.

Ultimately, we opened Crestone Wellness to help people suffering from alcoholism and addiction the same way that we were helped. So if you are struggling, please join on this incredible journey towards a meaningful and beautiful life.
