Can I sue a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility for false misrepresentation of the types of services they offer?

"Unity Treatment Center" states that they offer holistic medicine, pain management, fitness and nutrition, yoga, and meditation. I have a chronic pain conditions, and according to their advertisement, they seemed to offer all of the things I was looking for in order to manage my pain condition without narcotic pain medication. After being taken to Hobe Sound, FL, I discovered that the facility was not what they advertised at all. First, all of the clinical services offered were on the 2nd floor of a "Bank of America", all that was there was a "nurse" in street close. I asked about the alternative medication, and was shown a small room with an old massage/exam table pushed in the corner, and a small room with a sofa, and rug for yoga and meditation. There is much more to be told.
You may want to repost this question in a more appropriate anrea of AVVo. This is for people with criminal DUI Defense questions. You want to take civil legal action. Good Luck.
I can only assume that you sought out this facility as a result of being ordered into rehab as a result of a DUI charge. My impression is that you really have no damages upon which to file a civil lawsuit. Apparently you immediately learned that the clinic was not as advertised. if that was the case, you should have immediately left and asked for a refund of any $$$ you may have given them.
Good luck,
