Many Suffer the Disease of Addiction
Addiction has been officially recognised by The WHO as a disease and as such, the common misconception that it can only impact you if you are weak or poor of morals, is false. Addiction does not discriminate, but is a very common and harmful disease affecting many in Australia.
Addiction can be treated and at Hills & Ranges Private, we have one of Australia’s most successful treatment plans, allowing us to help you recover effectively and sustainably, whilst updating your loved ones along the way.
ADDICTION
What Factors Can Influence Addiction?
It is important to be aware of the types of triggers to watch out for and the reasons why you may become addicted to a substance or harmful behaviour.
TYPE OF DRUG USED
Some substances are far more addictive than others. For example, having an occasional alcoholic beverage has far less risk of developing an addiction than smoking or injecting Ice.
Genes
Our family history has a lot to do with our predisposition for developing a substance abuse disorder. If you have a family member that has had trouble with addiction, it is more likely that you will develop an addiction.
Environmental Influences
The people we surround ourselves with have a huge influence on the choices that we make and can help to blur the reality of your actions.
Offering a Fresh Start Towards Your Future
Being in a new location, surrounded by constant support, is the only way to see the light at the end of the tunnel. If you continue to live in the environment you are used to, you will only continue the self-destructive behaviour. The first step towards recovery is always admitting to the problem and we understand that this can be an extremely scary thing to do, but the staff are here to help ease your mind and remind you that rehab is an opportunity for a fresh start.

Where Do You Start?
Rehabilitation often begins with a mental and physical evaluation of the potential patient. Our specialists will determine the severity of addiction so we can better understand what types of treatment and therapies you will need.
In an act of gratitude for our natural landscape, we also employ a physical activity program that is second to none in Australia.
