Addiction doesn’t define you and, no matter how you’re feeling right now, there is hope for the future. You just need a supportive team of professionals who can guide you through a rehab, a detox and long-term recovery. At Nova Recovery, that’s exactly what we specialise in.
If you’ve never experienced rehab before, the thought of it can be scary. After all, with drugs, alcohol or mental health concerns having controlled your life for potentially many years, knowing how to step away from it is easier said than done. But it can be done. You just need to find the right rehab clinic.
At Nova Recovery, our private hospital is based in Largs on the Scottish coastline. Led by a team of psychiatrists, mental health specialists and addiction recovery nurses, you’ll be supported through admissions, a detox program, various treatments and therapies, and long-term recovery.
With a team by your side, we’ll get to know your addiction, the reason for it, any triggers and your emotional and physical state. Armed with this knowledge, we’ll then be able to prescribe a personalised care plan that keeps you at the centre. By doing this, we feel you’re more likely to stay on track and be dedicated to getting better.
So if you dream of a life away from drug or alcohol addiction or substance misuse, why not get in touch with our friendly team today? Anything is possible when you have the right people by your side.
Choosing inpatient rehab or outpatient rehab in Scotland
Inpatient residential rehab treatment requires you to stay at the treatment centre overnight, for a set period of time, while you complete treatment and therapy in the day. As an outpatient, you’d still be treated in the day but would return home in the evening.
If you’re currently based in Helensburgh, you might be considering rehab in the local area. But by travelling to Largs, and attending our private hospital on an inpatient program, you can give your recovery the attention it deserves.
Only you can make the decision, however. But it’s important to consider what sort of temptations and distractions you may face if you were to attend a rehab program in your local area.
When you choose Nova Recovery, you’ll be supported by medical professionals for 24 hours a day. Plus, our state-of-the-art facilities and en-suite accommodation are the perfect place to build yourself back up, and mean you don’t need to worry about anything else. It’s also within easy access to the rest of Scotland and the UK, meaning friends and family can still be involved.
Drug and alcohol addiction therapy options in Helensburgh
While every rehabilitation centre is different, most combine the following therapy types: cognitive behavioural therapy, dialectical therapy, art and drama sessions, and group and one-to-one therapy sessions. At Nova Recovery, we focus our treatments on the person at hand. Before prescribing a treatment plan, we’ll get to know you, your triggers, your addiction, your past and what recovery means to you.
By doing this, we’re able to create a personalised recovery plan that keeps you at the centre of everything. Not only do we believe that this can help towards long-term success but it keeps you dedicated and motivated towards your goal.
Based in Ayrshire, our hospital is surrounded by incredible landscapes. For this reason, a huge part of our treatment options can be enjoyed outside. Walking, yoga, meditation, holistic therapy and even light exercise are all great ways to rebuild your body and mind, and help you to start building a better quality of life.
The detoxification process in Helensburgh
One of the biggest reasons that someone might struggle with an at-home rehab plan is because of a self-led drug or alcohol detox. A detox is usually essential before any treatment begins and is the process of the substance leaving your body. As it does, a number of challenging withdrawal symptoms can occur – which, if not monitored, can be painful and even dangerous.
By attending rehab as an inpatient, you’ll have access to a medically-safe and assisted detox. Led by doctors and nurses, any side effects can be treated and studies show that you’re more likely to complete the full detoxification process. This is crucial for long-term recovery.
Life after rehab in Scotland
Addiction recovery doesn’t end the moment you leave rehab. In fact, for many, it’s just the beginning. Long-term recovery actually requires dedication, determination and support for the rest of your life.
While you’re in rehab, you’ll be guided to identify unhealthy thought processes and actions towards substances. Together, you’ll discover new coping strategies, and learn how to mitigate any risks and triggers. Once your time at rehab comes to an end, your support isn’t over. A dedicated point of contact will help with aftercare and relapse prevention advice and provide details of local services essential for your recovery.

What are the most common treatments for addiction?
Going through drug or alcohol detox is a common treatment to help deal with the physical side of addiction. Therapeutic treatments such as CBT and DBT are the backbone of effective drug and alcohol treatment, providing you with the tools to manage your life and the stresses that it will bring.
Will sober living increase my overall health?
Yes. Suffering from addiction means you are putting substances into your body that are harming you and can bring about or exacerbate existing conditions. Drug and alcohol abuse damages organs such as the brain and liver – without them being under constant strain you can once again be on a level platform. Sober living means that substances won’t be decreasing your health – to increase health further it’s best to live a healthy lifestyle built around exercise, eating well, and taking care of your mental health.
What is life like after rehab?
The truth is that life after rehab can be hard—especially the first year. Many relapses that occur happen within the first year out of drug and alcohol treatment, as some people think they can deal with returning to old environments and confronting addiction triggers regularly. Because of this, we offer a free 12-month aftercare package to help those just out of rehab. Life after rehab can be fulfilling and clearer without the constant worry of relapse hanging over. That worry might always be there, but with our help and others around, former addicts can learn to deal with the struggle and revitalise their life.
