NorthStar Care offers a year-long digital health program for Alcohol Use Disorder that uses virtual rehab to support recovery. The program combines VR-based therapy, nutrient therapy, and ongoing care from a dedicated team including a physician, an advanced practice clinician, a nurse, a navigator, and two peer guides, delivered through a subscription that includes a VR headset and three months of nutrient therapy. It differentiates itself by merging immersive VR experiences with medical care and peer support within a long-term, subscription model rather than standalone or short-term programs. The goal is discreet, accessible treatment that helps clients reduce their alcohol use, with reported outcomes of a 94.3% success rate.
