Thailand’s Special Rehab – Hope Rehab
Thailand’s Special Rehab is Hope Rehab – Why? If you are looking for a rehab for yourself or a loved one, then Read through this list and get an brief idea of what Hope offers. We guarantee no other rehab can match what we offer for the cost. We are confident you won’t get the same level of treatment anywhere else in the world.
The Team
50 qualified staff members in our team ensure you are given the support you need and kept comfortable during your stay. A ratio of 2 staff to every client is unmatched anywhere in the world
The Facility
Our main site is a 22-bed, 5 acre grand facility surrounded by stone walls and located on a mountain side overlooking the Gulf of Siam with sea views and surrounded by jungle rain forest.
Advanced Program
We have a separate very cosy new 14-bed advanced treatment facility located nearby and right beside the sea for clients in second and third months, offering special privileges and activities.
Swimming Pool
We have an on-site swimming pool where clients can swim, have fun, relax, or just do a bit of sunbathing. (Update -we are also currently building a fabulous new swimming pool.)
Stay Connected
Our facility has good Wi-Fi access throughout, and clients are also allowed to bring phones, obviously carefully supervised so as not to disrupt treatment.
Intern Training
We have 10 places for psychology and therapy interns coming from universities in different parts of the world who come to learn and support our clients.
On weekends, we take clients (depending on weather) to one of the nearby islands (Koh Si Chang) where they can explore, enjoy some beach activities, or just relax in the sun. It is just a forty-minute boat ride away and a great way to unwind after a busy week of class work.
The nearby town of Sri Racha offers a wonderful blend of modern and traditional Thai urban life. This is where we take clients so they can purchase necessities along with some well-deserved treats. At the centre of the town is a large department store.
Success Rate
Our success rate is higher than most rehabs. The general completion rate for Hope primary program is 97.5% and 80% of clients apply to stay longer than a month. We take this as a strong endorsement of our work.
Intensive Program
Addiction isn’t conquered overnight, but our 30-day intensive program offers what we believe to be the best chance of success. We make the most of of your time by packing a lot of activities into each day.
Thai Culture
Experience Living in Thailand and get to enjoy the local culture, natural beauty, the people, and wonderful quirkiness of Thailand. There is plenty of serious work to do, but you are also going to have time to explore Sri Racha.

Muay Thai is the national sport of Thailand, and clients get the opportunity to train in this renowned martial art with our skilled trainer Khru Yut (all skill levels welcome).

Motivated Clients
Our in-depth admissions process is designed to find the clients who will fit in well with our community and be able to gain the most from what we offer.
We realize that coming to rehab requires a significant financial sacrifice and we do not take that lightly, however once you consider how much we have to offer, we hope you can see it is a great opportunity and investment. We guarantee all financial resources are used wisely.
Community Spirit
Hope Rehab is not owned by a large corporation. We are a small community of like-minded individuals who are passionate about helping people recover from addiction.

Our community is committed to honesty and openness. This means we avoid false promises or misleading advertisements. There are also no hidden costs in joining the program.

Exercise Park
Every Friday afternoon, clients get to visit our local exercise park here in Sri Racha. Here you get to walk, run, or engage in other activities with the locals.
Thai Massage
Massage sessions twice per week. As well as being fantastic for relaxation, this is also an effective therapy that eases any lingering withdrawal symptoms.
Hope Food
We are lucky to live in a part of the world where fresh, nutritious ingredients are abundant. Our menu includes salad, veggie, meats, fish and much more. Food that is healthy and tasty.
Our Clients
Addiction does not discriminate between nationality, race, religion, culture, or social class. Our clients come from all around the world and from every walk of life, so it’s a great opportunity to come together and learn from each other and much more than addiction.
Your Loved Ones
Many clients are helped by their families to get to Hope. We are happy to support and help families understand addiction and the treatment process. We have a family feedback program and will coach you on how to support your loved one returning home.
Long Term
The psychological process of recovery and change can require longer-term treatment, and the cost of this is going to be an important factor for most people. We charge far less for long-term treatment than other facilities that are offering inferior programs at much more cost.
The real work begins once clients return home so aftercare is crucial. We provide weekly online meetings, and there is also phone support to ensure a smooth transition. There will also be plenty of time to plan for this move with your recovery coach.
Our 35-page aftercare book provides advice and tips so clients can hit the ground running once they return home. It includes suggestions on staying motivated and avoiding relapse triggers.

Advanced Program
Clients enter our advanced program after 6 to 8 weeks. This is because returning home from a 30-day rehab program can involve a difficult transition for some. For clients able to commit, this is an ideal way to futhur develop their recovery.
Restaurant Visits
On Friday evenings and Sundays we visit local restaurants. An important part of our program is recovery coaching which involves exposure to everyday activities outside of treatment. At Hope Rehab we focus on providing a bridge to normal living.
I volunteered at Hope for 4 months this summer and have nothing but the highest praise for both the staff and the facilities and for what it offers people in recovery. It was a life changing experience for me. It is a very special place. I made some amazing friends during my time there as part of the team and it will always have a very very special place in my heart

Healthy banana and mango smoothies are waiting for the clients after gratitude. Our kitchen team makes them from scratch with fresh, local fruit every day – a treat that is both good for you and tasty!
The staff is great, the place is beautiful, the quality of the teaching and the sports available is unique. I ended up staying 60 days because I found out that I was doing much more than getting clean at Hope . I learned a lot about myself, I tried lots of new things, got out of my comfort zone and really felt part of a community of friends. Thank you Hope.
