What Does Our Drug and Alcohol Rehab in York Do?
We offer fantastic, effective rehab at genuinely affordable prices. Our approach has been built around identifying what works for each individual, formulating a bespoke recovery plan for each of our clients. We only use established professionals with a track record within local rehabilitation, ensuring our clients receive the best service possible. In turn, this increases the chances of success.
Our rehab typically starts with detoxification – in order to cleanse your body of drugs and alcohol and overcome withdrawal symptoms – before introducing any number of rehabilitative interventions to support progression. Talking therapies, lifestyle overhauls, one-to-one key work sessions and day-to-day support and advice are central to what we do. But we know that one size doesn’t fit all – we consider your goals, level of motivation, history of alcohol use and past rehab experiences to lay foundations for real change. Ocean Recovery aims to deliver fast, effective and lasting abstinence from drug use and alcoholism by utilising treatment approaches with a proven track record.
We’re confident you will be impressed with our rehab centres. We pride ourselves on our high-specification, purpose-designed residences that provide relaxing environments that are homely, rather than clinical. Positive, pleasant surroundings encourage reflection and progress and we are confident we provide a perfect balance of research-based addiction treatment programmes and recreational therapy.
A Trusted Rehab Clinic
We are proud to help each and every one of our clients from York. As Ocean Recovery is just a short drive away, we are well-positioned to take you out of your current environment but not too far away where you feel out of place. If you are sending a loved one to rehab rest assured they will have 24-hour supervision and will be recovering in a safe and secure environment.
Can Drug and Alcohol Rehab Make Me Change?
Addiction is complex and can be extremely difficult to overcome, as anyone with a longstanding drug or alcohol problem will testify. We advocate a multi-faceted approach to tackling substance related difficulties, helping to ensure you can find a solution that suits your needs. We can provide quality treatment that has the potential to assist you in your journey to recovery, but an initial desire to change is an essential starting point. It is for this reason that we prioritise establishing and maintaining high levels of motivation. Positive thinking and forward planning are favoured as the basis for all the work we undertake, as we understand that keeping you full of optimism leads to better, longer lasting results.
If you are ready to make that initial commitment to us, we will provide you with all the tools you need to succeed. Unfortunately, no rehab programme can guarantee success in the long term, but we provide options for post-rehab aftercare programmes that are designed to provide an additional layer of support, guidance and motivation as you adopt your new, drug and alcohol-free lifestyle.
Is Rehab Dangerous?
We have a fantastic track record for safe, effective drug and alcohol treatment. Detoxification from alcohol can be extremely dangerous if undertaken in the wrong way, but when managed as part of a professional withdrawal programme, the risks can be minimised significantly. Taking a ‘cold turkey’ approach to detoxification, or using home remedies and short-term fixes for alcohol withdrawal can lead to serious health repercussions and even death in extreme cases. For that reason, we would always urge dependent alcohol users to seek professional advice and support before they take action.
Binge drinkers are less likely to face the risks that are posed to dependent drinkers during detoxification, due to the fact binge drinkers’ bodies are unlikely to have developed a physiological dependency on drugs/alcohol. Symptoms indicative of a physiological addiction often emerge after six to nine hours without a drink. Typical alcohol withdrawal symptoms include shaky hands, paranoia and anxiety, headaches, insomnia, hot flushes and excessive sweating. These are easily recognisable and are relatively easily managed. More serious issues arise as withdrawal continues. Hallucinations, seizures and delirium tremens – otherwise known as DTs – are all potential problems. Fortunately, with the right treatment, support and medical know how, Alcohol Rehab York can provide a seamless and reassuring path to recovery.
