Cocaine Rehab: Centres, Treatment & Help
Our cocaine rehab programmes have helped many people recover from cocaine addiction.
Recent figures from the ONS show that in 2021, there were 840 deaths involving cocaine in the United Kingdom. This is the highest number of deaths since records began in 1993.
Experts say this is due to the increase in cocaine purity that’s now flooding our streets from abroad.
When you consume cocaine, you will feel immense but extremely short-lived pleasure. If you become addicted to cocaine, you will soon begin to experience the many negative consequences that follow.
Going to a cocaine rehab centre is perhaps the most effective method of beating cocaine addiction. At a cocaine rehab centre, you will receive a vast amount of addiction treatments and therapy.
Expert therapists will help you reverse the damage your cocaine addiction has inflicted on your life. You will also begin to establish healthier routines that will allow you to form habits for relapse prevention.
Quick Access
See below information about cocaine rehab in general as well as the service we provide if you decide to choose Cassiobury Court as your Cocaine addiction treatment provider.
The Rise of Cocaine Addiction
When you consume cocaine consistently over a relatively short period of time, dopamine pathways will form in the brain. It’s these pathways that contribute to cocaine cravings and addiction.
In the UK, an estimated 117 tonnes of cocaine in 2021 according to the national crime agency. There are more people addicted to cocaine now than ever before, and the UK has just recorded the most deaths from cocaine poisoning on record.
Cocaine addicts feel these intense cravings and find it really difficult to go without cocaine in their system, no matter how short-lived the buzz they experience may be.
Everybody is different whether the addiction is through powder cocaine or crack cocaine, as experienced treatment providers for cocaine addicts, we will tailor your treatment to give you the best chance of making a full recovery.
What Happens in Cocaine Rehab?
When you begin your cocaine addiction treatment the 1st step is to flush the drug from your body in a step known as cocaine detoxification.
Any drug addiction treatment involves a detox period, and this is a crucial step in treating cocaine addiction.
You may experience cocaine withdrawal symptoms such as:
- The Shakes
- Nausea
- Irritation
- Depression
- Anxiety
Cocaine dependence is a serious addiction and when you begin treatment, you will be challenged both physically and mentally through this period.
This is why the detoxification period is best undertaken under the supervision of an addiction specialist.
Our team here at the Cassiobury court treatment facility include multi-skilled addiction counsellors, drug addiction nurses and General Practitioners who are at hand to apply any medication you need as you complete a medically supervised detox.
After Detox
When you seek help for cocaine addiction at our rehab, you will go through a tailored programme designed to eliminate cocaine dependency from both your physical and mental states. After detox, we will start to work through cocaine addiction therapy. In these workshops where you will learn about the neuroscience relating to cocaine addiction.
You will go through various private and group therapy sessions where you will learn about your addiction and coping strategies for the future. Years of drug use can have a massive effect on your mental state and can be the source of a variety of mental health issues.
Any form of cocaine addiction treatment programme will include cognitive behavioural therapy sessions as it is such a crucial step in the rehab process.
Inpatient Cocaine Rehab
Residential rehabilitation treatment takes place when you leave your home and admit yourself into a facility for the duration of your cocaine rehab programme.
You will be classed as an inpatient and stay at rehab until you have fully completed treatment.
This form of treatment is often more preferable to outpatient treatment rehab because you are completely removed from your cocaine addiction triggers and current environment.
Often people seek treatment for cocaine addiction through their local community and outpatient treatment. But the recovery process can be a lot more challenging in your home environment. In a dedicated treatment centre, you will be under the guidance of a full-time addiction specialist
Your access to cocaine will be totally cut off whilst you undergo your addiction treatment. Residential treatment is well suited to those of you who are acute cocaine addiction.
If you feel you may be on the verge of developing a cocaine addiction, outpatient therapy and treatment may help you out and help you to quit your cocaine use. But for heavy users of cocaine, you may need to undertake a dedicated cocaine addiction treatment programme.
If you have tried to stop using cocaine on multiple occasions but failed, then going to professional drug rehab can provide you with the kind of treatment plan that will lead to a successful recovery.
We can carry out a free confidential assessment over the telephone and also in person at our rehab centre and advise on the best-suited treatment options. As cocaine is highly addictive, a certified addiction specialist will have the experience to plan the best course of action.
Attending a private rehab for inpatient treatment is highly confidential.

Your privacy is assured at our CQC registered addiction centre.

How Many Days or Weeks does Cocaine Rehab Require?
Attending a cocaine addiction rehab requires an investment of time on your behalf.
Here, you will live stay at rehab for around 7-28 days. Generally, the more time you invest in rehab, the better the results you should expect in terms of cementing your long term addiction recovery.
At Cassiobury Court, we find the optimal amount of time to spend in rehab is around 28 days. If your cocaine addiction is sufficiently acute, you may be advised to remain at the rehab centre for a longer period of time, although this is relatively rare.
A certified addiction professional may recommend this option if you are suffering from multiple addictions such as alcohol addiction or have a dual diagnosis to other drugs.
