About the clinic

Holina Rehab Thailand in Koh Phangan provides specialized care for benzodiazepine addiction in a calm, tropical island setting. The 4-week all-inclusive residential programs typically run around $9,700 to $18,700 depending on the chosen accommodation level. This facility holds JCI accreditation and a license from the Thai Ministry of Public Health, maintaining 24/7 medical and nursing oversight.

Safety-focused diagnostics and assessment

The facility uses a structured intake process to plan a safe withdrawal strategy. These assessments help the medical team determine the severity of dependence and identify any co-occurring mental health issues. The diagnostic phase includes:

Confidential pre-intake assessment. This initial review happens before the patient arrives to understand their medical history.
Clinical physician assessment. An on-site doctor performs a physical exam and reviews substance use patterns.
Withdrawal severity scoring (CIWA-B). Staff use this clinical scale to track benzodiazepine withdrawal symptoms and adjust care.

Specialized benzodiazepine detox and tapering

Abruptly stopping benzodiazepines can cause seizures and severe health risks. The clinic follows the Ashton Manual protocol to manage these risks. This involves a slow, individualized tapering schedule. In many cases, the team switches the patient to a longer-acting benzodiazepine before gradually reducing the dose. This method helps stabilize the central nervous system during the detox process.

Residential dual treatment program

Recovery involves more than just physical detox. The clinic addresses the underlying anxiety, insomnia, or trauma that often fuels addiction. While a 4-week stay is the minimum, the medical team recommends 60 to 90 days for benzodiazepine dependence to allow the brain enough time to heal. The program uses several therapeutic methods:

Evidence-based therapies. Treatment includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
Trauma-informed care. The team uses NARM and somatic therapy to help patients process emotional distress.
Holistic and physical support. Patients have access to hyperbaric oxygen therapy, an on-site gym, a private beach, and swimming pools.
Relapse prevention. The schedule includes 12-step meetings and group therapy to build a support network.

Program inclusions

The residential programs are all-inclusive to help patients focus entirely on recovery without external stress. The package covers everything needed during the stay except for flights. Inclusions consist of:

Medically supervised taper. Professional monitoring during the entire reduction process.
Individual and group therapy. Regular sessions with specialized counselors.
Full accommodation and meals. Private or shared rooms in a resort-style environment with prepared food.
Dual treatment support. Focused care for co-occurring psychological conditions.

Holina Rehab Thailand: more details about the clinic

Thailand, Surat Thani

Holina Rehab Thailand is a private residential recovery facility established in December 2019. It sits on Koh Phangan, Thailand, and operates as a licensed medical center. The campus offers a contained environment for addiction and trauma treatment. Amenities include private beach access, two swimming pools, and an on-site gym.

Accreditations and International Standards

The facility is licensed by the Thai Ministry of Public Health. It holds both a Residential Rehab License and an International Residential Rehab License. The clinic also maintains JCI accreditation. All programs follow international addiction treatment standards. An on-site physician and nursing staff provide 24-hour clinical oversight.

Integrated Addiction and Trauma Care

Holina specializes in a Dual Treatment model. This approach addresses addiction and its emotional drivers – like trauma – at the same time. Treatment follows a continuous residential pathway. It begins with assessment and medically supervised detox when needed. Patients then progress through primary care, secondary care, and aftercare planning.

The clinic treats various substance dependencies:

Alcohol addiction
Opioid dependence, including heroin and fentanyl
Stimulant dependence, including cocaine and crystal meth
Benzodiazepine addiction
Cannabis Use Disorder

Dr. Aviva Wolf leads clinical direction as Consultant Psychiatrist. She brings over 25 years of experience in addiction and Dual Treatment. Dr. Natalie Lindemann serves as clinical director, overseeing trauma-informed care. The psychotherapy team includes Dr. Raphael Jay Adjani and Dr. Adrian Solomon.

Therapeutic Methods and Technology

Psychotherapy sessions form a core part of the daily schedule. Patients receive 4–8 individual therapy sessions every week. The clinical approach combines evidence-based psychotherapy with somatic healing techniques.

Specialists use several clinical modalities:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM)
Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE)

Holina offers Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) on-site to support recovery. Patients may also receive IV vitamin drips during detox. Aqua Tuning and sound healing serve as complementary recovery tools.

Residential Programs and Recovery Duration

Stay length is based on clinical assessment, with a minimum commitment of 4 weeks. Most residents stay 6 to 8 weeks. Programs can extend up to 12 weeks for full recovery. Admissions target clients who need immersion away from everyday triggers.

Accommodation options on campus include:

Private plunge pool villas
Solo deluxe seaview bungalows
Beach bungalows and poolside junior suites
Economy rooms and gender-specific shared seaview rooms

Aftercare planning is built into the daily residential routine. Every graduate receives a free 45-minute video call weekly for six months. This helps residents carry recovery skills into everyday life. An active alumni community provides ongoing support after discharge.

Services for International Patients

The facility treats guests from Europe, Australia, and the Middle East. Admissions staff provide fluent English support throughout the recovery journey. A single point of contact guides each patient from initial assessment to arrival. The team assists with travel planning and arranges airport pickups on Koh Phangan. Remote clinical assessments help determine the appropriate length of stay.
