Heroin Rehab & Treatment

Rehabilitation is considered to be the best treatment available for heroin addiction. Cassiobury Court gives you a place to stay that is free from the temptations. With support from our medical professionals, there is nothing enabling you to continue to use drugs.

The length of treatment varies on the severity of your addiction and how you respond to treatment. In some cases, the withdrawal symptoms that come with detox can be quite difficult to deal with and this could lengthen the time of recovery, but in other cases, this might not be the same and you might find that the detox phase isn't as difficult as some may find it. The length of time is fully dependent on how the individual copes with the programme designed for them.

For most, heroin rehab can be highly beneficial in maintaining sobriety. Not only does it allow individuals to detox without distractions, but with a comprehensive aftercare programme, we can go through coping strategies to help you tackle triggers and prevent relapse, ensuring you are supported every step of the way.

This will depend on the length of your stay. Detoxing from heroin can affect people in different ways, particularly with withdrawal symptoms, the time scale of which varies from person to person. Price may also be dictated by the number of medicines we prescribe.

A typical day at Cassiobury Court consists of a variety of treatments which could include a therapy session, relapse prevention techniques or work on the "12 steps" approach.

Cassiobury Park, which is located just a stone throw away from the clinic is the biggest public open space in Greater London. During your treatment, a member of our team will accompany you on a daily walk around the local area where you can get some fresh open air while enjoying the surrounding area.

At Cassiobury Court, we are a strong advocate for having family visits in rehab. We can arrange family visits to encourage a support system with your loved ones and so that they can see how well you’re doing.

We acknowledge that there are a number of different types of heroin and different ways that people can misuse it. The most commonly known types in the UK are brown heroin and medical-grade heroin known as Diamorphine. Every detail of your misuse matters in creating your personalised care plan, as it helps determine the best course of action for medically assisted detox and overall recovery.

Heroin can be snorted, smoked or injected. If you think a loved one is using heroin, it’s important to consider that there might not always be obvious signs such as heroin track marks from injecting.

Once your time with us is complete, you will receive 12 months of free aftercare as part of your addiction recovery. We also recommend our clients visiting support groups such as narcotics anonymous, as they will greatly improve your chances of a drug-free future.

Individauls suffering from Heroin addiction may have also developed underlying mental health conditions such as depression and anxiety. It is possible that the struggles of dealing with mental health conditions or vice versa may have contributed to the development of your addiction to Heroin.

We recognise these co-existing conditions as dual diagnosis and are able to address both heroin addiction and mental health disorders alongside each other through rigorous, evidence-based therapies.

During your stay in heroin rehab, we recommend that you take time off work during the recovery process. Taking yourself away from the outside world can help reduce the risk of relapse, as you are taken away from things that normally might trigger your substance abuse. Most jobs will allow time off for health reasons, as addiction is recognised as a serious health condition.
