At Hinterland Health Retreat, our addiction programs are designed to provide comprehensive, individualised care for those seeking recovery from a wide range of addictive behaviours and substance dependencies.
Every program is built around you — your history, your triggers, and your goals. With a maximum of six guests on our 30-acre Sunshine Coast Hinterland property, you receive a level of personal attention that is simply not possible in larger treatment facilities.

Our residential drug addiction treatment program combines evidence-based therapies, advanced neuro-technology, and holistic support to address the physical, psychological, and emotional dimensions of drug dependency. Whether you're struggling with illicit substances or prescription medications, our team designs a personalised recovery plan to support long-lasting sobriety.

Alcohol addiction can quietly take over every area of life. Our residential program in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland provides a safe, private environment to break free from alcohol dependency using a tailored combination of therapeutic counselling, neuro-technology, nutritional support, and body-based healing practices.

Prescription drug dependency is complex — often beginning with legitimate medical need before escalating beyond control. Our specialists understand this nuance. We offer discreet, compassionate, and clinically informed programs to help you safely reduce dependency and rebuild your life.

Compulsive gaming is increasingly recognised as a serious behavioural addiction, with measurable effects on mental health, relationships, and daily functioning. At Hinterland, we address the underlying drivers of gaming addiction — including anxiety, social isolation, and dopamine dysregulation — through an integrated treatment approach.

Gambling addiction can be financially and emotionally devastating. Our program provides a confidential residential setting where you can begin recovery away from the pressures and triggers of everyday life. We address the psychological patterns behind compulsive gambling using a combination of evidence-based therapy and neuro-technology.

Excessive social media use is reshaping attention spans, self-esteem, and mental health on a global scale. Our program helps you understand your relationship with digital platforms, reset your nervous system, and develop sustainable habits that support focus, connection, and emotional balance.
Pornography addiction is often accompanied by shame, secrecy, and relational harm. Our retreat offers a safe and judgement-free space to address compulsive sexual behaviour through trauma-informed therapy, neuro-technology, and holistic wellness practices — with complete confidentiality guaranteed.

What sets our addiction programs apart from conventional treatment centres is the integration of cutting-edge neuro-technology within a luxury residential setting. Many addiction programs address behaviour in isolation — we address the brain itself.
Research shows that addiction structurally alters the brain, enlarging the impulse centre while shrinking the regions responsible for judgement and self-regulation. Our neuro-technology is designed to help restore this balance — reducing impulsivity, improving emotional regulation, and supporting the neurological conditions needed for lasting recovery.
Upon arrival, our team conducts a comprehensive assessment — including blood work, DNA analysis, QEEG brain mapping, gut health testing, and psychological evaluation. This data forms the foundation of your personalised treatment plan.
Throughout your 14 or 28-day program, you will receive:
• 8–9 therapeutic sessions per day across multiple modalities
• Advanced neuro-technology sessions in our world-first MindShift Lab
• Evidence-based psychological therapies including CBT, EMDR, and trauma-informed care
• IV therapy, nutritional counselling, and tailored organic meals
• Daily movement, yoga, and mindfulness practice
• Aftercare planning and continued support post-departure

Recovery is not just about stopping a behaviour — it is about addressing the underlying emotional pain, trauma, and neurological patterns that drive it. A residential retreat environment removes you from the triggers and stressors of everyday life, giving your brain and body the space they need to genuinely heal.
Nestled across 30 pristine acres of Sunshine Coast Hinterland, with two waterfalls, bushwalking trails, a lap pool, yoga space, and fire pit, Hinterland Health Retreat provides the natural calm that supports deep and lasting transformation.
