Types of therapy
At Paracelsus Recovery, we include spa treatments as part of our comprehensive treatment programmes. By integrating spa treatments with traditional therapy, we help our clients enjoy improved relaxation, emotional balance, and physical well-being as they progress along the path to recovery.
What spa treatments are available?
Spa treatments can play a supportive role in mental health and addiction recovery by promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and helping the body and mind to heal. While they are in no way a substitute for professional therapy or medical treatment, they can complement recovery programmes by fostering emotional well-being and physical rejuvenation. The path to recovery is rarely smooth and there are moments when the experience feels undeniably challenging, but spa treatments offer a way to bring a little more comfort to the journey.
What are spa treatments helpful for?
Spa treatments can be highly beneficial for mental health and addiction recovery, offering both physical and emotional support during the healing process. They help reduce stress, improve relaxation, and promote overall well-being, making them valuable complementary therapies alongside professional treatment. Many of the spa therapies we offer our clients, such as massage, hydrotherapy, and aromatherapy, encourage the release of endorphins, serotonin, and dopamine, which are essential for mood regulation and can help counteract the effects of stress, anxiety, and withdrawal symptoms. These treatments also aid in improving sleep, reducing muscle tension, and boosting body awareness, all of which are conducive to enhancing emotional stability and supporting recovery.
How are spa treatments included in my programme?
At Paracelsus Recovery, our clients can enjoy the unparalleled spa facilities at our hotel partner, The Dolder Grand, located just a few minutes away from our clinic. An array of spa treatments are available, each classed as belonging to one pillar of well-being: relax, vitality, beauty, and detox. Their extensive list of treatments are available in The Dolder Grand spa treatment brochure (PDF).
