The importance of alcohol detox
Our detox clinics in the UK offer bespoke treatment programmes.
When it comes to treating addiction successfully, everyone is unique and has different medical and psychological needs. We, therefore, tailor our programmes to the individual.
In some cases, detoxing from certain drugs requires medication-assisted therapy to help ease the severity of withdrawal symptoms.
Withdrawal symptoms:
- Anxiety
- Sweating
- Nausea
- Insomnia
- Headaches
More serious alcohol detox withdrawal symptoms are:
- Tremors
- Seizures
- Extreme hallucinations
- Disorientation
- Delirium tremens (in rare cases)
Alcohol hospital detoxification takes 7-10 days, depending on individual clinical assessment.
Nursing staff also give symptomatic relief using a combination of vitamin replacement and physical and holistic therapies. Support is given through one-to-one and group therapy as part of the treatment plan.
By calling us, you will no longer feel alone. We will support and advise you every step of the way in your recovery journey. Our friendly addiction treatment experts can conduct a confidential, obligation-free, free-of-charge, and confidential and obligation-free assessment. Based on the outcome of your telephone assessment, we will then determine a treatment package at the clinic best suited to your clinical requirements, budget and location.
We are passionate about helping alcoholics access recovery through our highly reputable detoxification centre in the UK. You can be assured of discreet and professional service at all times. Furthermore, we will support you and your family following admission and again after you are discharged from alcohol addiction treatment.

To find addiction clinics in London today, we have a dedicated urgent admissions team committed to helping you access life-saving treatment for alcoholism without delay.
Most individuals that suffer from alcoholism will only ask for help and agree to drug or alcoholism treatment in a time of crisis.
In addiction treatment, we refer to this as a “window of opportunity”. This period is minimal, as once the crisis has died down, the alcoholic will likely go back into a state of refuting that they need help.
When someone who has a problem with alcohol becomes open to treatment, it is vital to act swiftly and without delay.
Alcohol addiction is a mental illness that often deludes the sufferer. An alcoholic will spend most of their time completely denying the reality of how harmful their drinking is and how it impacts others.
We take facilitating admissions very seriously. We aim to alleviate the stress of searching, choosing and making arrangements for you.

Free Alcohol Detox
Sadly there is very few free alcohol detox clinics available in London or anywhere else. This is due to substantial cutbacks to the addiction treatment sector made by local governments. The cuts have come at a critical time when alcohol-specific and drug deaths are at an all-time high in the UK.
Funding for a detox clinic in London has become exceptionally hard to secure.
Analysis by the BBC found £162m (18%) has been cut from treatment budgets in England since 2013-14. Naturally, this has significantly impacted the quality and quantity of free alcohol addiction treatment available in London and other areas of the UK.
If you want to access private detoxification in London quickly, the only way to do so is to self-fund private alcohol detox. Doing so allows you to select the facility you attend, and there are no waiting times for admission.
We appreciate that many individuals are not in a position to finance detoxing from alcohol. Given this, we have sourced reputable cheap alcohol detox centres that are affordable to most.
If a private alcohol detox clinic is outside your family’s financial remit, you can apply for funding through your local drug and alcohol services. You can self-refer and find their contact details through your GP or NHS Direct.
How does outpatient alcohol detox work?
An outpatient alcohol detox is for alcoholics who want to recover but don’t want to interrupt their life commitments such as work, school or family life by attending a residential detox facility.
We provide an alcohol detox from home service, beginning with a private addiction doctor consultation. Alcohol detox medication will be prescribed to you, so you can safely quit alcohol without worrying about the dangers of doing so.
Addiction counselling can be arranged for this period if desired, along with reading materials and other recommendations, such as local addiction support groups that you can attend.
How Much Is Private Detox?
The cost of an alcohol or drug detoxification in London varies depending on where you go, the type of clinic you choose and the duration of your treatment.
A detox from alcohol in London need not be expensive, but please be wary of cheap clinics. All the clinics we work with are well-established and reputable, have qualified professionals, including doctors, nurses, psychiatrists, counsellors and therapists and are CQC registered and regulated.
