The go-to luxury detox facility for Newcastle

SDR welcomes clients from across New South Wales. We are only a 2 hour drive from Newcastle, and regularly have clients that travel to us from throughout regional & rural NSW. Better yet, we’ll even pay for your flights to our specialists here in the heart of Sydney.

Our detox & rehab programs in Newcastle are tailor made to your needs, interests and goals, so rest assured you’ll feel right at home. SDR is a space that is welcoming and relaxed- which we feel supports and promotes an easeful detox and addiction recovery.

We help you rediscover relaxation and peace of mind

Emotional balance and mental & physical relaxation are cornerstones of recovery and relapse prevention. Here at SDR we offer a range of integrative therapies and activities to support you towards peace of mind. These are offered in addition to medical interventions and include: acupuncture, equine assisted learning, meditation, art therapy, swimming and beach activities. Clients enjoy daily massages and walks.

Our specially trained staff create an environment that is comfortable and safe in order to best facilitate your drug and alcohol addiction recovery. We support clients to learn practical tools that will help them to unwind, manage their emotions and gain new perspectives.

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. Clients learn to better tune in to their emotions, bodies and thinking patterns so that they can recognise early warning signs of relapse and take the necessary steps to come back to greater equilibrium within themselves.

Get help when you need it

SDR offers clients priority admission. Many public addiction programs in Newcastle have waiting lists of up to 6 months; whilst private hospitals can have wait times of up to several weeks.

Most of our clients are admitted within 1 week of their first contact with our service.

If you decide that one of our programs could be right for you, we will organise an assessment with one of our friendly staff to get a clearer picture of where you’re at, what you need and whether we’re the best service for you. From there, we will arrange an admission time that is convenient to you.

A routine that works for you

The team at SDR understand that a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work for everyone. That’s why we focus on 1:1 support for our clients and why we create a Newcastle detox and rehab program and routine that fits your lifestyle and needs. We want to create a recovery program that will work with your lifestyle and family, work & relationship commitments. Our approach is practical- in our experience recovery is more sustainable when it is centred around realistic and easily applied tools, goals and practices.

SDR won’t force you to do anything that you’re not interested in because we want you to feel motivated for your recovery. Our team help you to identify what supports and treatments are most suited to your individual needs.

Some clients may need a detox experience that is focused on relaxation, self-care and rejuvenation- so we’ll organise pedicures, acupuncture and music nights. Others may benefit from being more active and having personal training, golfing and hikes.

Our team will help you design a routine that is sustainable and works for your life and addiction recovery.
