About The Hills Rehab Chiang Mai
Located in the stunning mountainside of Northern Thailand, The Hills Rehab is a purpose-built, private 20-bed inpatient facility treating addiction and co-occurring disorders, with the goal of creating a healthy mind and body.

The Hills Rehab is proud to be the first and only treatment center in Thailand to offer a separate on-site hospital with a full-time psychiatrist. This makes it possible for The Hills Rehab to provide medically supervised detox (for those who need it) from the comfort of their own room. The Hills Chiang Mai can detox clients from alcohol, opiates (heroin, Methadone, Suboxone, fentanyl, and Oxycontin), benzodiazepines (Xanax, Klonopin, Vallum, and Ativan), and CNS stimulants like Ritalin, Concerta, and Adderall.
The Hills Rehab brings clients on weekly excursions to take them into their world-famous surroundings. Each Sunday, clients can go on bike trips, bathe elephants, golf, raft, and learn how to cook authentic Thai dishes, among other activities. These excursions allow for experiential healing, bringing clients out into the world to gain new knowledge and passion. After 7 days of treatment, clients regain access to their mobile phones (without a sim card), laptops, tablets, and other devices. Electronics stay in their rooms at all times, and clients have a set 2 hours of time daily to connect with loved ones and other personal/business needs. Ultimately, electronic privileges are decided by The Hills Rehab Chiang Mai’s clinical team and can flex to individual needs.
Situated on 14 acres of land, The Hills Rehab property is truly beautiful. Each guest will have their own private villa and access to a fully equipped gym, as well as a spinning and boxing studio. They have numerous swimming pools as well as peaceful garden areas, perfect for relaxing walks. The Hills also proudly collaborates with locals surrounding the center, sourcing a variety of sustainable items from local suppliers, including fresh fruits and vegetables, eggs, and coffee. With beautiful weather, clients can enjoy meals outside in their up-scale outdoor dining area.
