Cannabis addiction Treatment in ZEUS Centro Terapéutico
About the clinic
Treatment for cannabis addiction is available at ZEUS Centro Terapéutico in Tarragona, Spain. This facility earned the 2024 European Award in Medicine as the best addiction treatment center in Europe. The center provides specialized psychiatric care led by Dr. Pablo Garcés and a multidisciplinary medical team available 24/7.
Treatment approach and modules
The clinic uses the Zeus Method, which combines cognitive-behavioral therapy with a therapeutic community model. This approach focuses on the root causes of addiction rather than just stopping consumption. Patients can choose between two recovery environments based on their needs:
- Zeus Cetro module. This is an immersive stay in a nature-based community setting. It includes equine therapy, yoga, mindfulness, and 18 weekly skills workshops.
- Zeus Corona module. This private module offers exclusive suites for patients requiring higher confidentiality. It allows for flexible scheduling so patients can maintain professional responsibilities during treatment.
Stages of recovery
The program follows a structured three-phase protocol to help patients achieve long-term sobriety. The duration of the stay varies depending on individual progress and psychiatric evaluation. The treatment includes:
- Medical detoxification. This phase involves supervised withdrawal management to help the body clear substances safely.
- Dishabituation. Patients work to identify triggers and build new, healthy habits through individual and group therapy.
- Reintegration. This final stage prepares patients for social, family, and work life with continued psychological support.
- Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). The center uses TMS as a complementary tool to help reduce cravings and support brain health during recovery.

Specialties and Therapeutic Methods

- Narcology and Alcoholism: Specialists manage detox from cocaine, cannabis, benzodiazepines, and alcohol.

- Rehabilitation: Programs focus on dishabituation, helping patients build healthy habits and rebuild social and professional skills.
The "Zeus Method" has two distinct phases. Phase 1 focuses on medical detox and withdrawal management, sometimes with pharmacological support. Phase 2 centers on dishabituation and building healthy daily routines. After completing the program, patients receive free weekly online relapse prevention follow-up for life.
