The road to recovery is now just one flight away.
The rising acceptance of medical tourism around the world has increased the number of patients looking abroad for rehabilitative treatment after surgery or addiction. Rehabilitation programs are often expensive and highly competitive, and medical tourism has allowed people to seek out treatment abroad as a low-cost option. Rehab centres have popped up all over the world that focus on treating international patients for their behavioural addictions, drug addictions, physical and mental ailments, and even postoperative recovery.
As described in an article published by Qunomedical, “treatment can either take place in outpatient or inpatient centers, depending on the specific needs of the patient. A residential (inpatient) rehab program gives you the added benefit of being away from your daily routine and surroundings, giving you the opportunity to exclusively focus on your recovery.”
Why Should You Have Rehabilitation Abroad?
You may be under the impression that being close to friends and family would be helpful for the recovery process but staying in a familiar setting can actually be a detriment to rehabilitation. As it turns out, your chances of recovery dramatically improve when you seek treatment in an unfamiliar environment. According to Qunomedical, these are just a few of the advantages to flying overseas for rehab:
- Change of scenery.Being treated away from home and your routine environment will help you fully immerse yourself in the treatment process and improve your results. You’re far from the people or the situations that trigger and perpetuate your addiction and taking yourself out of your commitments will help you establish a new way of life.
- Privacy.Protecting your confidentiality is crucial when receiving treatment. Being away from home ensures complete privacy for a smooth and successful recovery.
- Tranquillity.Inpatient facilities, such as our partner clinics Castle Craig Hospital and Smarmore Castle Private Clinic lie in a beautiful, relaxed and tranquil environment to ease your recovery and healing.
- Reduced costs.You can save up to 50% on your addiction treatment if you decide to travel abroad.
