Rehabs in Thailand treating addiction and alcoholism, have a lot going for them. In addition to very affordable costs compared with Europe, Australia and the USA, the standards of professional staff and care are generally very high. The attraction of coming to work in the wonderful South-East Asia climate, allied with the low cost of living, ensures that rehabs in Thailand can attract top-rate staff at salary levels that would simply not be acceptable elsewhere. This financial saving, allied with low accommodation, food and leisure costs, ensures that fee rates and staff standards compare extremely favourably with the rehab sector worldwide.
At SafeHouse Rehab Centre, for instance, a quick look at the team page will absolutely confirm this. The high academic qualifications on show and the very wide sphere of professional skills speak for themselves. The treatment program is expansive and varied. We know that everybody responds to elements of rehab differently. Some are very comfortable in one-to-one counselling, some are not. Others prefer group therapy dynamics, whilst some don’t. Some clients respond better to hypnotherapy and acupuncture as supplemental activities, whilst other love therapeutic detoxifying massages and cycling. Some are good with written assignments; some speak readily while others need time to trust. The differences are as wide as the numbers of clients at rehabs in Thailand. The SafeHouse program makes full allowances for personal preferences and needs, and Treatment Director Bill Robertson formulates, via the ‘stepped care’ principle, the most appropriate and effective treatment plan for each individual.
Currently, there are 5 or 6 active drug and alcohol rehabs in Thailand. Not many for a country the size of the whole British Isles, and whilst they are generally pretty busy (sadly, there are always people in serious trouble needing serious help); there are usually places available for clients willing to travel. And why would someone not want to come to Thailand to seek recovery from addiction and find a new way of life? The climate, the food, the standards of care, and most importantly, the new fresh environment away from the grey drinking and using haunts is so motivating and important, it’s hard to find any negatives to attending rehabs in Thailand. It is so very important to extract the addict or alcoholic from the dark and dangerous world he or she inhabits and put them in a new, safe and sound environment away from the triggers and demons (not to mention pubs and dealers) that destroy them daily in their familiar surroundings.
Getting some space between the client and their long-suffering families, friends, and workmates (if indeed, the client is lucky enough to still be working!) benefits everyone. It really is amazing how a 4 to 8-week program at any of the rehabs in Thailand can start the long process of transforming and rebuilding the relationships so cruelly shattered by the disease of addiction.
