Cheshire Drug & Alcohol Rehab Clinics

Finding Rehab in Cheshire

Cheshire has several high-quality rehab centres that offer high standards of care. As a county, Cheshire borders Merseyside and Greater Manchester, Derbyshire and Shropshire, making it a great location to enter rehab.

Our rehab clinics in Cheshire specialise in treating all stages of addiction for alcohol, drugs, prescription drugs and addictive behaviour.

Our staff also receive extra training to treat all the most common psychological and mental health problems that accompany addiction, such as PTSD, OCD, depression, anxiety, anorexia, bulimia, self harm and bipolar. This higher level of expertise ensures our patients always receive the specialist help and support they need.

As part of your rehab in Cheshire, you can expect:

• Confidential and free initial advice
• A free drug assessment
• A personalised rehab programme
• Treatment for any psychological problems
• A medically-managed detox
• Therapy sessions and counselling

As an inpatient of ours, you will enjoy hotel-quality accommodation and a welcome break away from the normalities of everyday life. This makes all the difference in making rehab an enjoyable and fulfilling experience.

Inpatient & Outpatient Rehab in Cheshire

When you look at rehab options, you will discover there are two main types: inpatient and outpatient rehab. Which is best for you? That depends on your medical needs, social situation and housing arrangements.

Inpatient rehab

Inpatient care is the most comprehensive type of rehab. This is when you stay in clinic accommodation during your detox and begin therapy at the clinic. This provides a safe environment for you to heal and recover in.

Inpatients also take part in daily activities like walking, cycling, horse riding, and games to keep them productive and active. Inpatients also get access to holistic therapies, a gym and a personal trainer to stay fit and healthy.

Outpatient rehab

As an inpatient you will undergo a home detox. This means you or someone you know will have to care for you during your detox. For obvious reasons, this increases the chances of relapse considerably.

Outpatient rehab is only really considered when the patient has no complex medical needs and only a mild to moderate addiction. Those with a strong addiction, such as an opiates addiction, will need inpatient care.

If you would like to know if your addiction would be best treated as an inpatient or as an outpatient, we can provide advice if you call us on 0800 118 2892.

Here at Serenity Centres, we know that everybody is a little different. This is why all of our clinics in the Cheshire area are able to provide personalised treatment programmes based on your specific needs and requirements.

This allows us to get the best possible results by focusing on the techniques that work best for you, and not wasting time with treatments that won’t help.

Our world-class team includes doctors, therapists, nurses and support workers, many of whom have beaten addictions themselves. 

This wealth of experience allows us to build a unique, effective programme based on your own addiction symptoms and the parts of your personality that make it hard to stop using your drug of choice.

What Does Rehab Involve?

With rehab in Cheshire, the logical next step is to speak with our helpful experts about the next steps. We will discuss the rehab clinics that are taking on new patients in Cheshire, and help you get into one of our clinics, so you receive the help and support you need to beat your addiction.

When you enter rehab in Cheshire, you will:

• Undergo a physical and psychological assessment
• Be prescribed withdrawal medications
• Go through a detox
• Receive care and support during your detox
• Attend therapy sessions to change your behaviour
• Have regular check-ups with a doctor to monitor your progress

Detoxing

The detox stage of rehabilitation is the most difficult stage. This is where you abstain from the substances you are addicted to so all traces of them leave your system. This resets the body.

Because your withdrawal symptoms will be intense, it is best to undergo a detox as an inpatient. This will ensure a safe environment. You will also be prescribed withdrawal meds to help ease your symptoms and take the edge off.

A detox from drugs or alcohol is never an easy process, but with help, support and understanding you will get through it.

Therapy and counselling

Detoxing alone is not enough to beat addiction because it does not address the behavioural and social sides of addiction. For these, therapy is needed.

We use therapies like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) to treat the behavioural and social sides of addiction. These therapies have excellent results and will set you up for continued abstinence.

You will be introduced to therapy during your detox, and it is likely you will continue with therapy after you leave the care of your Cheshire rehab clinic.

Ongoing help and support

You will also receive ongoing help and support from our experienced team. This will help ease you into life without addiction.

We include one years’ free aftercare with every treatment plan, but the truth is we are in contact with our patients for years to come.

If you’re ready to start your journey to recovery with one of our Cheshire rehab clinics, or you have a loved one who is ready to get help, a call to the Serenity helpline on 0800 118 2892 will be beneficial to help you take the next steps.
