Addiction Recovery Program
Alcohol Addiction Treatment
Break free from alcohol dependency with our comprehensive, medically-supervised treatment program combining evidence-based therapies with luxury comfort in the serene Algarve.
Understanding Alcohol Addiction
Alcohol addiction, or alcohol use disorder (AUD), is a chronic condition characterized by an inability to control drinking despite negative consequences. It affects millions worldwide, impacting physical health, mental wellbeing, relationships, and professional life. At Eden Vale, we understand that alcohol addiction is not a moral failing but a complex medical condition requiring professional treatment.
Our luxury alcohol addiction treatment program provides a safe, supportive environment where you can focus entirely on recovery. With a maximum of six clients at any time, we offer truly personalized care that addresses the root causes of addiction while providing the medical support necessary for safe detoxification.
Recovery from alcohol addiction is possible. Our evidence-based approach, combined with holistic therapies and world-class amenities, creates the optimal conditions for lasting sobriety and personal transformation.

The Physical Impact of Alcohol
Chronic alcohol use affects nearly every organ system in the body. The liver, responsible for metabolizing alcohol, can develop fatty liver disease, hepatitis, and cirrhosis. The cardiovascular system may suffer from high blood pressure, irregular heartbeat, and increased risk of stroke. The brain experiences changes in structure and function, affecting memory, decision-making, and emotional regulation. Our medical team conducts comprehensive assessments to understand the full impact of alcohol on your body. This allows us to create a treatment plan that addresses both immediate withdrawal needs and long-term health restoration. Many clients are amazed at how quickly their bodies begin to heal once alcohol is removed and proper nutrition and care are provided.
The Psychology of Alcohol Dependency
Alcohol addiction often develops as a coping mechanism for underlying psychological issues. Stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and social pressures can all contribute to problematic drinking patterns. Over time, the brain's reward system becomes altered, creating powerful cravings and making it difficult to stop without professional help. Our psychological approach goes beyond addressing drinking behaviors to explore and heal the root causes of addiction. Through individual therapy, you'll gain insight into your relationship with alcohol, develop healthier coping strategies, and build the emotional resilience needed for lasting recovery. Our therapists specialize in dual diagnosis treatment, addressing co-occurring mental health conditions alongside addiction.
