By: The Oasis Team Oasis also ensures that it offers individualised attention to its patients, explains Oasis Director Anstice Wright, “A maximum of twelve residential clients stay at the drug treatment centre at any given time, which ensures that we can provide dedicated therapy and specialised attention to each patient. Oasis Counselling Centre combines counselling with a 12 Step recovery programme, which is endorsed and substantiated by Narcotics Anonymous.” Counsellors combine therapy with the 12 step programme and instil the value of living a healthy and enriching lifestyle. This constitutes a drug-free way of life post rehabilitation. Addiction recovery therapists encourage clients to take part in sporting and outdoor activities offered at Oasis, and nature and health are integral elements of their holistic recovery programme. A growing need for drug rehabilitation centres in South Africa Drug dependency in South Africa is increasing at an alarming rate, and the amount of confirmed cases is currently twice the world average. There is a definite upsurge of ‘tik’ (crystal meth) addiction, primarily affecting the youth of the country. Cocaine addiction is rife amongst the high-income, upper-middle and upper classes. A disturbing number of professionals are using cocaine as a confidence and energy-boosting tool. Crack, however, appears to be more addictive than cocaine, and drug treatment centres are reporting increasing numbers of crack addiction cases. Crack, cocaine, CAT and heroin are predominantly used in cities, while Mandrax and inhalants are widely used on the streets by disadvantaged youths. Marijuana is the most frequently used drug in the country. Some drug counsellors regard marijuana as a portal drug - one that inevitably introduces potential addicts to other mind-altering substances. A growing concern in South Africa is the abuse of prescription medication and over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, spiralling into severe addictions. Effective treatment for all types of drug abuse Individuals seeking admission to drug rehab will have to undergo assessments to determine the severity of their addictions, their medical condition, and if a detoxification programme is necessary. Oasis keeps up to speed with the latest treatments and counselling methods, and the team is equipped to treat all drug dependencies. Drug addiction counselling at Oasis integrates group and one-on-one therapy, facilitating clients in dealing with their pasts and preventing relapses in the future. Clients in need of drug addiction counselling are advised to remain in the Oasis Counselling Centre for a minimum of three months. On successful completion of primary and secondary programmes at Oasis rehab, clients may progress to the tertiary treatment facility, Solar House Rehab Centre. Take the first step to recovery by admitting that you need help. Oasis Counselling Centre can help you overcome your addiction and step into society. # # # Oasis Counselling Centre offers drug treatment facilities and the help of qualified addiction counsellors at its drug treatment facility in Plettenberg Bay, South Africa.
