EXCLUSIVE: No cell phone, sweat-lodge group therapy and plenty of horseback riding: Inside the $30,000-a-month sex-addiction rehab center where Anthony Weiner will try to cure himself of his serial sexting
Anthony Weiner is in the middle of a weeks-long sex-addiction rehab stint at The Ranch, a 2,000-acre facility an hour west of Nashville. The former politician, 52, checked himself into The Ranch in early October. Fishing, long hikes, and horseback riding along trails in the leafy woods are among the activities offered at the Tennessee center.
The disgraced politician cannot access to his phone during treatment. Weiner sought refuge at The Ranch as he is being investigated by the FBI after DailyMail.com's revelation that he had sent sexts to a 15-year-old girl
During the bureau's probe agents discovered that emails from Hillary Clinton were on a laptop computer that Weiner and his wife shared His estranged wife, top Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin, has been encouraged to visit him at The Ranch despite their separation
This is the secluded rehab ranch deep in the heart of the Tennessee countryside where Anthony Weiner is trying to beat his sex addiction - by hiking, fishing, zip lining and looking after horses. But the disgraced former US Congressman and serial sexter is banned from using the cellphone that has got him into so much trouble.

so he’s not turning states evidence then. this is not good news.
Horseback riding....Mustang Ranch?
He made about $150,000 a year as a congressman but he can afford $30,000 a month at this spa? The math doesn’t add up. Who is paying for this?
Wilbur, he tried to ride me bareback.
Hello, Justice Department, my horse wants to turn someone in...hello, hello?
Soon to be killed in a tragic horseback riding accident.
He might get Scalia-ed out there in the woods.
Just lop it off. Problem solved.
Ha, the Mustang Ranch is in Harry Reid’s state.
I’m not sure that detectives can interview Weiner while he’s a ‘patient’ at the clinic. So he buys himself 30 days.
Are people clothed in the sweat lodge? If not, I don’t think it will work.
Bobbitt sex therapy for those on a budget.
I remember with some sadness back when Rush Limbaugh was suffering with Oxycontin and in rehab, he explained, that he was told that drug addiction was easy compared to pornography addiction.
He said they taught how the brain becomes grooved in some part(s), and that while drug addiction does cause these grooves that at least with successful treatment, that over time they will heal and fill in.
Not so with pornography. The grooves are very deep and do not heal completely. Something about the visual tracks are just always there. That is a very sad commentary for the future of a pornography addict, if that still holds true.
There are surely advances since back when Rush was in treatment. I certainly hope that there is more hope available today for the porn addict.
I bring this up because with Anthony Weiner in the news, I wonder about the prognosis for a sex addict like him ever recovering entirely. How awful if such a curse should never be lifted.
I thought a horse’s @$$ was supposed to be at the end of his back, not sitting on it.
that would be “naked sweat lodge” I assume, right down the weiner’s alley
I hope that they can help him, but I doubt it happens in only 30 days. It seems to be a progressive disorder and we are not sure if he had moved on to the live encounters with girls. Certainly, Weiner was moving in that direction with skype encounters with this girl.
He was obsessed with her and he is obsessed with sex and his maleness. He has been this way for a long time. Needs a long term cure.
Weiner got caught. There are thousands, or tens of thousands of men who don’t get caught.
Not understanding why he’s not under arrest.
I wonder if this is all a ruse. Weiner is probably in an FBI safe house spilling his guts.
Did they say bareback riding? That doesn’t seem like the appropriate therapy.
Maybe punishment, but not therapy.
Clinton’s exemption from the law extension applied to Girl Friday’s husband.
