Rehab Treatment | Types and Benefits and How it Works

Our private rehab facility provides:

Addiction is complex, and therefore so are treatment and recovery. With our professional help, however, you can escape the grasp of your condition. On this page, we will discuss the treatment options available to you, including what you can expect during your rehab experience.

There are three stages of addiction rehabilitation – detox, therapy treatment and aftercare:

Detox

Our comprehensive treatment programme consists of a medically assisted detox (if required) which will help ease your body off the clutches of addictive substances. This is then followed by rehabilitation and therapy, and finally, aftercare.

Therapy treatment

In order to overcome your issues, first, you must understand them – therapy is, therefore, an essential aspect of your recovery. There are many paths that lead to substance abuse or behavioural disorders, but usually, we see patients with underlying mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, and PTSD, amongst others. You may have experienced childhood trauma or another significant event in your life that has resulted in substance abuse or compulsions. Other factors that may also contribute include your genetics and environmental circumstances.

The success of your treatment lies in unravelling the cause of your behaviour, and through a variety of different therapies, you will learn coping mechanisms and techniques to prevent relapse.

Primrose Lodge is a private rehabilitation facility that provides you with outstanding service and a wealth of experience. With the majority of our team having recovered themselves, we can offer an understanding that is often hard to find in day-to-day life.

Carl, who attended Primrose Lodge for cocaine and alcohol treatment, talks about his experience:

“I didn’t understand that being open and honest was key, but hearing other people made me realise that other people felt the same things. It’s an environment in which you are not judged. You’re not told to do things. The more you give, the more you get out of it. If you want to change then it’s available for you.”

As you go through rehabilitation, you will notice other benefits, such as:

Rehab undoubtedly gives you the ideal environment to recover, surrounded by like-minded people and supported by a professional and empathetic team.

Whether you have a loved one in rehab or would like to talk to a loved one about addiction treatment, it is natural to feel worried or concerned. You may feel relieved that they are getting the help they need and, at the same time, afraid of relapse. You may also be unsure of how to support them, worried about saying or doing the wrong things.

All of these feelings can feel overwhelming, but it is important to take a breath – help is available. Here are some things you can do to support your loved one through rehab:

It is imperative that, through this very trying time, you also look after your own needs – having a family member go through rehab can take its toll. Make sure you look after your own health by eating well, getting enough sleep, and exercising regularly. You should set aside time for hobbies and interests and talk to other supportive family members or friends. You may also find professional guidance helpful, and in this case, you should talk to a counsellor.
