About The Hermitage Centre
Private Rooms and Transportation
Located in the beautiful Gold Coast of Australia, The Hermitage Centre (also known as Gold Coast Detox and Rehab Services) offers confidential drug and alcohol withdrawal treatment and short stay residential care in a comfortable, non-clinical home environment. The Hermitage property, located 25 minutes from the Coolangatta airport, provides serene, private retreat-style lodging in a sizable 6-bedroom farmstead. All bedrooms are private with private bathrooms and 24 hour professional care. Executive rooms are also available with WiFi access for those who need to stay connected to their work. The Hermitage Centre can also arrange all transportation needs via car, bus or train. Within hours, their nearby helicopter pilot can pick clients up from any remote or rural location.
Tailored Detox Plans
Tailored detox regimens and 1-on-1 therapy are part of The Hermitage Centre's highly individualized approach to treatment. They do group classes, but they don't do any group activities that share personal information.
They provide their patients a full spectrum of complementary therapies, medication, psychotherapy, and a private, opulent setting. The proper prescription for the withdrawal process, relieving pain, insomnia, and nausea, will be shared with clients by qualified physicians before arrival.
The Hermitage Center provides supplementary therapies like yoga, meditation, art therapy, and dance courses since it recognizes how important it is to relax during the healing process. Additionally, they provide their patients regular acupuncture treatments, gentle exercise, swimming in the ocean or pool, a healthy diet, and vitamin and mineral therapy. The Hermitage Centre is committed to providing the best possible care and personalized services in a relaxing, private environment.
