Understanding rehab and therapy
On commencing your rehab programme in an Edinburgh residential centre, you will have an in-depth assessment. Highly trained staff will familiarise themselves with your medical history and any prior association with dependency. As a result, doctors, nurses and psychiatric specialists can keep you under close supervision as you undergo medical detox.
This is when, with expert guidance, you will cease consuming addictive substances and gradually cleanse the toxins from your body. This may bring unpleasant side effects, but you will be provided with the medication and specialist support you need to get through it.
Which Rehab offer a holistic approach and will examine the psychological as well as the physical side of addiction, with regular therapy sessions. You can speak to counsellors about any current or underlying problems which may be at the core of your dependency.
It is also possible to continue your recovery after you leave rehab with our exceptional aftercare programme. You can keep in touch with an advisor when you return home, by phone or in person, providing ongoing support.
Dealing with dependency
When dealing with dependency, often the first obstacle to overcome is admitting you have an issue in the first place.
Many people may be in denial about having a problem with drugs or alcohol. This is despite showing the signs and the concerns of their friends and family.
If you, or someone you know, require assistance, we can arrange a specialist therapeutic service called an intervention.
We can offer you the opportunity to speak to a trained counsellor, who can help you determine if you have a dependency, to get you the help you need.

Free addiction rehab support services in Edinburgh
Help is also offered by numerous organisations including the NHS, Social Work Services, Charity Rehabs and public/private partnerships, as well as group support organisations such as Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, Cocaine Anonymous and family support groups too.
As General Practitioners (GPs) are not specialist addiction treatment doctors, most GPs refer individuals to local specialist NHS services, commonly called Local Alcohol and Drug Partnerships (ADP) or Community Addiction Teams (CAT).
These offer great services, but similar to most other NHS services, they can be under financial pressure as well as lengthy waiting times.
