A luxury detox and rehab service for Cairns
Choosing the right detox and rehab for you or a loved one can be an overwhelming process.
The friendly & experienced team at SDR can help you take the stress out of going to a detox and rehab.
Cairns locals will find they are supported every step of the way through private drug and alcohol rehabilitation—from contemplating rehab, to travelling to our centre, to medically supported detox, right through to relapse prevention and maintaining recovery.
We are easily accessible, with daily flights to Sydney from Cairns Airport. Our friendly staff will arrange airport pick-ups and drop-offs to help ensure your journey is a smooth one. We can also guide you through admission planning before departure, so you know what to bring, what to expect on arrival and how the transition into residential care will work. You can also explore all treatment locations to learn more about the areas we serve.
Our Detox & Rehab Services for Cairns Residents That Actually Make An Impact On Lives
The local withdrawal clinic or hospital won’t have a suitable detox or residential rehab program for Cairns residents. Most clinics and public drug and alcohol services have long waiting lists and offer a one-size-fits-all approach that doesn’t suit all clients.
That’s why SDR offers priority admission for our medically supervised detox and rehab programs in Cairns. Most of our clients are admitted within one week of their first contact with us.
We value personalised care, relaxation and luxury, and ensure your comfort every step of the way.
Our centre is a comfortable, retreat-style facility. Every client has a large private room with ensuite bathroom and panoramic views.
A range of holistic therapies are offered to help ease your drug and alcohol detox process, including daily massage and acupuncture.
We work with a maximum of four clients at any one time as part of our supported detox program, ensuring you receive plenty of individual attention.
If you need to attend to business during your stay, we’ll set you up with suitable work facilities.
Worried about taking time out from work?
Many of our clients are busy professionals and business owners. SDR understands the importance of being pragmatic and we will support you to carry out your work & business commitments. Our team will guide you in fostering a balanced approach, so that your recovery and treatment plan remains a priority.
Many clients with addiction struggle to relax and unwind in a healthy way, especially around work and business. SDR values a practical approach- we can support you in real time to develop and keep a healthy mindset around work. Stress can be a major trigger for people with addictions, so learning to deal with stress appropriately can be an important step in your recovery journey. For Cairns clients, travelling away from everyday business pressures, familiar routines and local triggers may also create the separation needed to focus more fully on treatment.
We go the extra mile for your privacy
SDR ensures a high level of confidentiality and privacy for our clients.
Your records will be anonymous – they will not be listed with Medicare or eHealth portals, nor will they be shared with private health or Income Protection insurers. We are a strictly paper-only service- your medical records are not recorded in any database. You can choose to use an alias when you stay with us. We are also happy to take cash payments or bank cheques so that there is no banking record. Receiving treatment outside Cairns can provide an additional layer of discretion for clients who are concerned about being recognised by colleagues, clients or members of their local community.
A holistic approach to detoxification & recovery for Cairns clients
SDR has a friendly team of experienced medical staff, nurses, addiction counsellors, chefs and holistic therapists. We work together to offer a holistic approach to medically supervised detox and rehab for people travelling from Cairns.
Our medical team will assess your health and needs in order to create a personalised treatment plan for your detox and recovery journey. Our staff are trained to maximise the comfort and safety of your stay. SDR provides services for up to 4 clients at a time to ensure your privacy and provide highly individualised care.
To ease your detoxification process we offer conducive physical therapies such as massage, acupuncture and personal training to complement your medical interventions.
An in-house chef creates delicious and nutritious meals to your tastes and health needs.
We want clients to connect with the joy of living and reconnect to their reason for living.
Daily counselling, psycho-educational sessions and executive coaching will help you understand what created and maintains your addiction, but more importantly, what you need to do to move forward in your life and make the most of the possibilities available in this world. To help you connect with all that life has to offer, we have a range of enjoyable activities for you to discover, including golf, beach walks, kayaking, African drumming sessions, equine assisted learning and sound meditation.
Aftercare
Recovery is an ongoing process that benefits from ongoing support. One month of outpatient aftercare is included in all of our packages to help you ease back into life post detox and rehab. Aftercare is available regardless of where you live- meetings with our counsellors will be conducted online via a video conferencing program such as Zoom. For those interested in long-term support, our team will link you up with the most appropriate professionals and services in your local area. For clients returning to Cairns, this may include helping you identify suitable local counselling, medical care or recovery support before you travel home.
Take the first step
The friendly team at SDR is available by phone and email to answer your questions about treatment, travel and admission from Cairns. We understand that leaving home for residential care is a significant decision, so we aim to make each stage clear, private and manageable.
From your initial assessment to flight planning, airport collection and admission, our team can support you through the practical details. We can also speak with a trusted family member or support person, with your permission, to help coordinate your journey and prepare for your return to Cairns.
