Rehabilitation centres are springing up all around the world as westernized lifestyles assimilate themselves in developing countries, and the associated societal maladies with them. Some of the more unlikely and exotic ones include, The Nishan Foundation in Islamabad, Pakistan, and San Patrignano, in Rimini, Italy.
The Nishan Foundation is unusual because of its location in a country one would presume most unlikely to house a rehabilitation institution. It offers state-of-the-art facilities and services including detoxification and attitudinal healing. It attracts a diverse clientele of people who come from many different backgrounds and ages looking for the newest methods in sober living. San Patrignano is another new facility with a high follow-up success rate. It combines traditional methods of self-sustenance activities, along with other more contemporary programs and is affordable, although the program is longer than most others. Then there is the Serenity House Treatment Centre, which is located in Spain and offers a full English speaking program. It claims a high success rate with its long-term sobriety plan and is one of only two licensed Recovery Dynamic Centers in Europe.
The U.K. Treats Its Patients To British Hospitality

The PROMIS Rehabilitation Clinic, also located in England, is a large converted farmhouse set in a forest in Kent. Its combination of traditional and innovative treatments and programs make this a popular destination for patients looking for the solitude and tranquility of nature, to incorporate into their recovery program.

It incorporates contemporary programs to encompass an array of various patients from different walks of life.
