Alcohol dependency is a widespread issue in Scotland and areas like Peebles. It is reported by Focus Scotland, that around 1 in 4 people in Scotland (23%) drink at hazardous or harmful levels (defined as drinking more than 14 units per week). Alcohol addiction can have severe repercussions on an individual’s health, relationships, and overall well-being. If you or someone you know is struggling with alcohol addiction in Peebles, we have dedicated rehabilitation centres and professionals ready to offer assistance.
Over time, frequent alcohol consumption can lead to tolerance, prompting individuals to consume more to achieve the same effects. This can escalate to dependency, where the individual’s daily life revolves around alcohol, leading to both physical and psychological issues.
Our Peebles-based alcohol rehab centres adopt a holistic approach. This begins with detoxification to cleanse the body, followed by therapy sessions to address the root causes of addiction. We provide both one-on-one and group therapy sessions and post-treatment support to ensure sustained recovery.
While many perceive cannabis as a harmless substance, its frequent use can lead to dependency and mental health issues. Those in Peebles facing challenges with cannabis addiction can seek expert assistance at our local rehabilitation centres.
Cannabis can influence perception, mood, and cognition. Overreliance on the drug may lead to anxiety, depression, and cognitive impairments, making rehab essential for those affected.
Our Peebles cannabis rehab focuses on behavioural therapies, education about the drug, and building coping mechanisms. Our team ensures that patients understand their triggers and are equipped with strategies to avoid relapses.
Cocaine is a powerful stimulant that poses severe health risks, both mentally and physically. If you’re grappling with cocaine dependency in Peebles, seeking professional help can be a life-saving decision.
Cocaine addiction can lead to cardiovascular issues, severe mental health challenges, and risky behaviours. Prompt intervention is vital to prevent these consequences.
Our Peebles cocaine rehab centres use a blend of medical treatments and therapy to combat addiction. This includes detoxification, cognitive behavioural therapy, and support groups, all aimed at comprehensive recovery.
The misuse of prescription drugs, whether opioids, sedatives, or stimulants, can be just as damaging as illicit drug use. Our prescription drug rehab centres are dedicated to helping those trapped in this often-overlooked form of addiction.
Misusing prescription drugs can lead to overdose, mental health issues, and physical dependencies. Many people may not even realise they have a problem until it becomes severe.
In Peebles, our prescription drug rehab centres focus on understanding each individual’s specific drug dependency. Treatment plans include medical oversight during detoxification, behavioural therapy, and education on the dangers of prescription drug misuse.
We are committed to ensuring that everyone has access to the highest quality of care and support during their recovery journey. If you or a loved one is in need, don’t hesitate to reach out for help.

Addiction to alcohol or drugs is an exhausting disease which takes over your entire life. The side effects which come with substance abuse can be devastating.
Drug and alcohol abuse can completely change you as a person, as it takes control of your physical and psychological health impacting every aspect of your lifestyle. Whilst it may feel impossible to get back to your old self, we’re here to help you achieve this.
One of the more noticeable impacts that drug and alcohol addiction has is on your physical well-being. You’re likely to appear dishevelled and pale with blotchy skin and bloodshot eyes as your physical health deteriorates.
It’s also quite common to see fluctuations in your weight. Over prolonged periods of drug and alcohol abuse, your internal organs will struggle to cope with the toxins which could lead to unhealthy weight loss.
Of course, addiction doesn’t only affect your physical health. It has a huge impact on your psychological well-being as the toxins from drug and alcohol abuse alter the make-up of your brain making it difficult to make logical decisions.
You’ll likely lose all interest in activities you previously enjoyed, you’ll avoid any social interaction and develop severe mood swings. Excessive substance abuse can cause bipolarity, anxiety, depression, and put you at much higher risk of suicide.
Don’t let this terrible disease ruin your life, contact our drug and alcohol rehab in Peebles today for support before it’s too late.
When you’re suffering from drug and alcohol abuse, you’re not the only one who is suffering. It’s a common belief amongst substance abusers that they’re only hurting themselves, whereas they’re actually affecting everyone around them.
Your addiction will put a significant strain on your loved one’s well-being as well as your own. In our experience, we’ve seen families torn apart by the devastating affects of drug and alcohol abuse.
From mood swings in the home to financial difficulties, everyone is impacted by these awful effects. If improving your own well-being isn’t enough motivation to seek help, then hopefully alleviating your loved ones of this destruction will encourage you to recover.
Our aim is to help as many people as possible achieve their long-term recovery goals. We do this by providing an expert, yet compassionate approach to all of our clients.
Everyone will receive a tailored residential addiction treatment to follow whilst staying in our luxurious accommodation with your own private room.
The highest rate of successful recoveries is found within residential private drug and alcohol rehabs, as opposed to the low recovery rates found with outpatient services.
Your greatest chance of succeeding in your recovery is to physically remove yourself from your comfort zone of home.
This familiar environment is full of distractions and possible temptations which could lead you into relapsing, whereas by staying at our drug and alcohol rehab in Peebles, you’re only left with one thing to focus on, your long-term recovery.
You’ll benefit from the constant supervision of our expert team of recovery workers as they deliver industry leading addiction therapies. We take care of your housekeeping, laundry, and ensure you enjoy delicious, home-cooked meals each day.
Whilst everyone will receive a personalised treatment programme, we do have a range of therapies which we regularly include for most clients. All of our treatment programmes feature a combination of psychological and well-being therapies, in addition to a drug and alcohol detoxification.
Our dedicated team effectively deliver stress management, cognitive behavioural therapy, drug and alcohol relapse prevention, and counselling.
To complement these psychological therapies, we also include sessions which focus on your well-being, these are relaxation and sleep management, fitness therapy, mindfulness, yoga, low level laser therapy, art therapy, Satori chair therapy, acu-detox and acu-puncture.
This holistic approach to your residential addiction treatment provides you the best opportunity to achieve a successful recovery from drug and alcohol abuse. Whilst it’s a challenging task, our rehab programmes are invaluable to your long-term recovery.
