Drug and Alcohol Rehab London

We analyse your drug or alcohol addiction as well as your physical and mental health history to create a successful recovery plan which is made up of our state-of-the-art therapies and evidence-based addiction treatments.

You’ll also receive professional outpatient treatment once you have completed your treatment programmes to build a solid foundation for recovery. Our expert team helps you to build healthy habits to improve your wellness for life after rehab which will aid you to stay clean.

This extensive treatment process at our private rehab clinics is something that is not available to you with outpatient treatment. Your mental health and substance abuse are taken into account at private rehab, where you have access to more support than you would receive with any other programme.

Holistically Based Alcohol Detox & Rehabilitation

Our alcohol rehab programme is holistically based with an enhanced focus on healing the mind and body of individuals. The detoxification stage of your rehab plan involves removing all harmful toxins from your system in order to get you fully clean so you can experience residential treatment in the best possible version of yourself. The benefits of this are that you can fully experience the euphoric feeling of ditching the drink and how it benefits the way you feel.

You will initially experience some withdrawal symptoms that come with substance-based detoxes, this is where the benefits of having 24-hour care comes into full effect with our medical staff monitoring you throughout the duration of your detox in order to make sure you are as comfortable as possible without experiencing any serious withdrawal symptoms.

If you are struggling to deal with the detox then we can prescribe medication to help ease the symptoms and prevent serious withdrawal effects such as delirium tremens. Under the supervision of our Rehab Doctors and Nurses we will look after you and see you through this period.

Therapy sessions such as group and individual therapy are carried out following your detox. The importance of these therapies cannot be understated in your recovery as they help build a positive mindset by talking about any struggles and achievements you have experienced during rehab, this can be in front of people going through the same journey or to one of our therapists.

Building up the right mindset is incredibly important to long term recovery and by opening up about your journey you will start to understand your purpose a bit more and become more determined than ever to beat your addiction.

• Tailored Therapy
• Grow Stronger
• Build Your Future

Individual therapy is undertaken with a qualified psychiatrist or psychologist as a one to one session to help the therapist evaluate your mental state and how you are benefitting from rehab.

Group therapy consists of a typical group of 5-10 people getting together and talking about their personal experiences in addiction recovery. These sessions are a great way of treating alcohol addictions as it gives the addict the chance to open up to a group of people who are going through the exact same journey.

The sessions are also a great way for addicts to discuss what they have experienced in recovery and what they have done to get past any obstacles they may have faced, this helps encourage individuals that they can get through recovery through the motivation and support that is generated in a typical group therapy session.

During detox & rehab, 24-hour care and support will be provided. The team put together by Rehab Clinics Group includes professionals with years of experience in their respected fields who have been employed to provide a high quality of care that is expected in effective alcohol rehabilitation programmes.

Withdrawal Symptoms Are Unavoidable During Alcohol Rehab

Drug and alcohol addiction is so destructive because it is not just a bad habit or a sign of a lack of self-control. Substance abuse changes the chemical balance in your brain, and this leads to a physical addiction that is almost impossible to overcome without entering an addiction treatment program.

Long term alcohol abuse has a sedating effect on the brain and the body adjusts by producing an excessive amount of serotonin and norepinephrine. When the alcohol is no longer available the brain becomes overstimulated.

Once your body has become physically addicted to drugs or alcohol, you will not be able to detox without experiencing some withdrawal symptoms as your body struggles to adjust to functioning without alcohol. Withdrawal symptoms can range from mild to severe and commonly occur eight to ten hours after your last drink and are typically most severe within 24 to 72-hours.

Physical withdrawal symptoms include shaking, sweating, headaches, insomnia, nausea, lack of appetite, increased heart rate, seizures and tremors. Psychological symptoms can include anxiety, depression, fatigue, agitation, hallucinations, confusion and mood swings.

The most dangerous form of alcohol withdrawal occurs in severe alcoholics and is known as delirium tremens. If you are a heavy drinker, it is important to seek medical advice before you attempt to stop drinking because you should be monitored during the detox process and you could need medically assisted alcohol detox at our rehab clinic.
