    Primary programme

    Group and individual therapy, motivational interviewing, creative and experiential therapy and the 12 Step programme, with a personal treatment plan.

  3. A tree-lined avenue through the grounds at Aloe Valley

    Secondary programme

    An extension of the primary programme focused on life skills and everyday routine in a safe, supervised setting, which gives the best chance of lasting recovery.

Programmes, therapies and life skills

Treatment for alcohol and drug addiction, and what sits underneath it

Addiction rarely comes alone. Our clinical psychologist and consulting psychiatrist assess and treat depression, anxiety and trauma alongside it.

A farm in the Magaliesberg, under an hour from the city

Aloe Valley sits on a farm in the Hennopsrivier valley on the R511, towards Hartbeespoort. Clients have comfortable rooms, good food, gardens and mountain walks, away from the people and places tied to using, and close enough for family to stay involved.

Helping someone who doesn't want help?

Many people don't walk into rehab on their own. Often a parent, partner or child makes the first call.

  • Call us before you talk to them. We'll help you plan what to say and what to do if they say no.
  • Choose a calm, sober moment. Talk about what you have seen and how it affects the family, not about blame.
  • Have a date ready. When they agree, a booked assessment and a bed let them act on it the same day.

What families ask first

All questions and answers

Do you accept medical aid?

Most medical aids are accepted. Send us your scheme and plan details and we will confirm cover and the medical aid rate before admission.

Do you offer detox?

Yes. Detox is medically supervised by our nursing professionals, and a doctor’s consultation is included in the registration fee. Withdrawal is managed so it is as safe and comfortable as possible before therapy begins.

How long is the programme?

The primary programme runs from 28 days to 3 months. The secondary programme continues the work with a focus on life skills, and a minimum of 6 months is recommended. Stays of 1 to 12 months are possible, and the length is agreed with you based on the person’s needs.

What if my loved one refuses to go to rehab?

This is very common. Talk to our admissions team before you talk to them. We can help you plan the conversation, choose a calm moment when they are sober, and be ready with a firm date and a bed so the decision can be acted on straight away.
