The First Steps in Recovery from Alcohol Addiction

Are you tired of feeling dependent on a substance or process? Do you want to take the first step on your journey of recovery and start regaining control of your life? Are you looking for a supportive, professional and judgement-free environment where you can detox without pressures or stress?

Alcohol Detox in Thailand

You will arrive at a safe secure and highly professional environment, based at The Cabin in Chiang Mai. We offer a medically supervised detox programme based within our private on-site hospital, Mountain View. The programme length is one week but may vary based on personal requirements, the alcohol or substance being detoxed from, and clinical advice.

With only two beds available, this innovative detox programme is staffed by our fully licenced medical team and allows for hands-on care, round-the-clock and according to patients’ needs. We combine top-quality medical treatment and renowned Thai hospitality with a structured schedule that offers an introduction to The Cabin’s world-leading addiction treatment programmes. The schedule is designed to ensure that you are mentally stimulated and engaged during your detox period but don’t worry – we tailor the schedule to your physical, mental and emotional capabilities, as we know first-hand that detox is different for everyone and not always easy.

How Do You Know if Detox is Required?

Upon arriving at The Cabin Chiang Mai our on-site medical staff and clinical team will meet with you one-on-one for an assessment. This meeting will dictate whether or not you require a withdrawal period before beginning the treatment programme.

How Long Does it Take to Detox from Alcohol?

As mentioned earlier, alcohol withdrawal symptoms are different for everyone, and thus a preventative abstention can take upwards of a week for some. However, with careful medical observation and the use of medication, alcohol detoxification is usually just a couple of days.

What is the Cost of Alcohol Detox Treatment in Thailand?

Although we offer an incredibly luxurious alcohol detox centre, we are able to keep costs low – often one-third of the prices in Western countries. However, the cost does depend on how long you will be staying with us, so it is best to enquire with one of our staff members for more information on your own personal case.

Why Continuing Treatment is Important

Detoxification is an important step to help aid recovery for those dependent on alcohol. It is important to keep an alcoholic safe from life-threatening symptoms while the body and brain learn to once again function without alcohol.

However, it is only the very first step, and what comes after detox is incredibly important. It is during a full alcohol addiction treatment programme where our clients are able to learn recovery tools and coping skills to stay away from alcohol in the future. In most cases, there are underlying issues within a person that help exacerbate the addiction such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and abuse among others. In many cases, alcoholics begin drinking to forget about problems in life or self-medicate for underlying disorders which is, of course, not a healthy coping mechanism.

Instead, The Cabin uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), the 12 Steps, mindfulness meditation and more to teach our clients healthy ways to cope with life and stress in a manner that does not include substance abuse. Detoxing alone is not enough to get and stay sober.
