If you or a loved one are struggling with an alcohol or drug addiction, it can be hard to find the appropriate help. The trouble is, the longer you go on without the proper treatment, the worse your symptoms will get. Alcohol and drugs both gradually cause worse and worse damage until eventually, the results are unfortunately irreversible.

Luckily, there are some extremely high-quality rehab centres in London so you can get the help you need without travelling outside your comfort zone. London is slowly developing a reputation for a high standard of treatment and it can all start with a simple call to the Serenity Centre helpline on 0800 118 2892.

Our dedicated staff are waiting to give you free advice and guidance on your habits. They can tell you whether you need professional help and what the best option in London for your specific problems would be, including NHS clinics, private clinics, support groups, therapists and more.

Why Choose Rehab Centres in London?

Previously this would be a difficult question to answer, as historically most of the best rehab clinics have been in the United States. Times are changing though, and the successful treatment of many patients in London has led to a growth in the availability of high-quality clinics with world-leading staff, making it hard to argue the case for going elsewhere.

Travelling for treatment can be not only stressful and anxiety provoking, but can even put you off attending a rehab clinic in the first place. If you are suffering from alcohol or drug dependency, the single most important thing is that you get the help you need, which is why it’s such good news that London has access to top quality clinics in order to treat those who need it most.

If you are worried or unsure about which of the clinics in London is best for you, not to worry! Our experienced professionals are waiting on our helpline to discuss your options and explain all of the London facilities and which ones can work best for your needs.

1. Bespoke Rehabilitation Programmes

Here at Serenity Centres, we know that everybody is a little different. This is why all of our clinics in the London 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.

2. Private Residential Rehab Centres

There is a wide range of high-quality private residential rehab centres in London. If you think you need to attend a private rehab clinic, we are able to assess you with a free phone consultation so that we can get a full picture of your addiction and its causes, allowing us to figure out the best course of action for you. We will also be able to advise you on which private facility in London is best suited to deliver your personal recovery plan.
The options can sometimes be overwhelming without somebody

experienced to advise you, which is why we will do everything we can to make the whole process as easy as possible for you. If you do decide to attend a private clinic, we will also be able to discuss any specific requirements you may have.

3. Affordable Drug & Alcohol Rehab Treatments

Alcohol and drug rehabilitation centres have a reputation for being very expensive. While this can sometimes be true, it’s certainly not always the case. We believe that nobody should ever be turned off getting the help they need to get their life back on track due to financial reasons.

If you need professional help to recover from your alcohol or drug addiction, but you are hesitating because of the potential cost, please contact us now.

Not only can we discuss all of your treatment options and suggest the ones that are both cheap and effective, but we can also offer services through the NHS, services that are covered by most medical insurances, and affordable, low-interest payment plans.

This means that no matter which treatment option you end up going for, your recovery and wellbeing will always be put first.

Comfort and relaxation are a crucial factor in detoxing and rehabilitation which is why we will never recommend you travel outside of London unless absolutely necessary.

5. Outpatient or Inpatient Treatment & Facilities

There are plenty of facilities available for both inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation in London. Outpatient treatments can involve detoxing yourself from home whilst regularly contacting our staff for progress checks. You may occasionally be required to attend a therapy session but in general outpatient rehab can be completed from the comfort of your own home.

If you take this route, you will be supervised by clinic staff and run regular tests to make sure you do not relapse. You will also be given medication that counteracts the withdrawal symptoms and makes it easier to avoid drinking or using drugs and be offered a variety of therapeutic treatments and CBT to help you stay strong and avoid temptation.

In extreme cases or where you have been using drugs or alcohol for a long period of time, an outpatient rehab programme may simply not be enough. If this is the case you will need to attend one of our rehabilitation centres. Luckily our centres are designed around being as relaxed and comforting as possible, and there are facilities in London meaning no need to travel.

If you are unsure about whether outpatient or inpatient treatment is best for you, the best first step is to simply call us and discuss your problems, which method you would personally prefer and why.

We will be able to explain in detail which option will work best for you and work out an effective recovery plan.

How Does Rehab Work?

The first step of attending a rehab is, of course, giving us a call. This will allow you to discuss your drug use or drinking habits with one of our experienced specialists. From there, if you both agree that attending a rehabilitation centre is the best way forward, we can find the best rehab clinic in the London area and book you in.

Once you’re an inpatient at a rehabilitation clinic, your recovery programme will be custom built for you based around what the rehab clinic doctors think will work best for you. Rehab clinic recovery programmes make use of a variety of techniques to keep you engaged and focused on the end goal.

You will:

• Be prescribed medications to help with the withdrawal symptoms
• Be invited to attend group discussions with other people struggling with addiction
• Receive holistic therapies such as massages and relaxation techniques
• Practice Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with a qualified therapist
• Have regular checkups with the doctor to see how things are going and make changes to your recovery plan

This combination of many different factors and proven techniques will keep you on the path to recovery at all times, and before you know it you’ll be back at home in your day to day life, but completely free of your addiction! We do also provide a complete aftercare programme so that we are immediately on hand if any relapses or issues do occur.
