\/><\/p>\n<h3>Thailand<\/h3>\n<p>Thailand doesn\u2019t only indulge in tourism.<\/p>\n<p>With a strong focus on dental tourism and cosmetic tourism for years, it is quickly expanding into other medical fields including drug and alcohol rehabilitation services.<\/p>\n<p>As of 2020, Thailand has 370 registered private hospitals, and has a focus on delivering world-class medical tourism.<\/p>\n<p>Rehab in Thailand on average can cost as little as $10,000 for 28 days of treatment, which includes includes all meals, accommodation and basic travel on top of the medical programs<\/p>\n<h4>East Meets West Type of Rehab Treatment<\/h4>\n<p>Miracles Asia in particular offers mindfulness meditation, 12-step programs, CBT, and holistic treatment.<\/p>\n<p>It also offers esoteric Buddhist teachings to assist in teaching patients the value of self-control.<\/p>\n<p>The main appeal of Thai rehab is cost-effectiveness.<\/p>\n<p>Even though the same treatments you can find locally or in countries within E.U., U.K., North America (U.S. and Canada), Australia, or elsewhere in Asia are available in Thailand, you can get them at a fraction of the cost due to the difference in countries low cost of living.<\/p>\n<h4>First-World Healthcare That Puts First-World Countries to Shame<\/h4>\n<p>Rehab treatment in Thailand across the board combines CBT and medical detoxification with Buddhist or Zen teachings to empower your ability to control yourself mentally and physically for only $10,000 USD and get 28-30 days of access to addiction treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Thailand\u2019s healthcare services that help bolster the rehab offerings of every last Thailand rehab center are arguably superior to privatized U.S. healthcare or certainly their attempts at making it \u201cuniversal\u201d.<\/p>\n<h4>Dual Diagnosis and Co-Occurring Conditions<\/h4>\n<p>Thailand healthcare makes everything more affordable for rehab centers, thus allowing them to focus on CBT and group therapy care of internationally trained counselors, doctors, and psychiatrists.<\/p>\n<p>Many of them also practice dual diagnosis so as to treat co-occurring mental health issues like PTSD and depression that might serve as one of the root causes of the substance abuse in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>This is all done in a secluded and relaxing tropical backdrop for good measure.<\/p>\n<h4>Licensed By the Government<\/h4>\n<p>Like in the case with Portugal and Switzerland, Thailand\u2019s government is supportive of their rehab and medical tourism market.<\/p>\n<p>The country\u2019s Ministry of Health certifies the authenticity and quality of the best rehab centers within it.<\/p>\n<p>This should allow rehab patients from overseas to know which rehab centers will give them the best return for their investment when push comes to shove.<\/p>\n<p>Feel free to hunt for the certifications of the accredited medical personnel and therapists.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21741 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/miraclesasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/lounge-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\"
