Why Is Cannabis Rehab Required?
Cannabis addiction is a common addiction that impairs the lives of 2% of the Great British population.
Unfortunately, cannabis addictions are capable of initiating a number of physical and psychological health problems.
Considering that cannabis is readily available and widely supplied to individuals throughout the United Kingdom, the need for a national cannabis rehab service has never been more apparent.
Ocean Recovery meets this need by offering cannabis rehab at our state-of-the-art rehabilitation clinics located in Blackpool.

As touched on above, as a cannabis addiction consumes the life of the individual struggling, various physical and psychological health problems are likely to arise.
However, when an addiction is present, many of these health problems are overlooked. This is because feeding an addiction will be of utmost importance.
Although many do not consider the health ramifications that a cannabis addiction can have, various short and long-term health consequences will gradually take a toll on an individual’s physical and psychological well-being.
Below, we have outlined the most common physical and psychological ramifications of cannabis addictions.
Physical Ramifications of Cannabis Addictions:
- Breathing problems
- Rapid heart rate
- Irregular heartbeat
- Nausea and sickness
- Headaches
- Infertility
Psychological Ramifications of Cannabis Addictions:
- Altered senses
- Heightened mood swings
- Irritability
- Difficulty concentrating and focusing
- Memory problems
- Insomnia
- Paranoia
- Hallucinations
- Delusions
- Psychosis
- Mental health disorders
Although many of the above ramifications of cannabis addictions are short-term and will alleviate within 48 hours, frequently consuming cannabis can lead to long-term complications such as organ failure, permanent memory problems and various mental health disorders.
Considering this, if you are struggling with a cannabis addiction, or know someone who is, attending a cannabis rehab is imperative.
Information and Advice About Cannabis Rehab
If you have become addicted to cannabis, or have reason to believe that a loved one is struggling with a cannabis addiction, Ocean Recovery Centre is able to provide cannabis rehab treatment on a residential basis.
If you believe the time is right to take advantage of cannabis rehab treatment, commencing your journey to a substance-free life could not be easier.
To begin your treatment for cannabis addiction, all that you are required to do is contact our admission team by completing our contact form. Alternatively, you can call us.
If you are yet to discuss your cannabis addiction with anyone, the thought of contacting our admission team may leave you feeling anxious. However, our team is on hand to listen to you and help you come to terms with your addiction.
As and when you contact us, our experienced admissions officers will conduct a free evaluation. This evaluation will enable our team to understand your addiction and determine how it has so far impaired your life.
Once this evaluation is complete, our admissions team will inform you of the treatment that is most likely to benefit you. If you are happy to refer yourself to our cannabis rehab, we will provide you with an admission date.
Cannabis Rehab Treatment
As you commence treatment at our residential centre, you will go through a full detox from marijuana to remove all the harmful toxins that remain in your system.
While going through detoxification, you may experience some withdrawal symptoms such as increased blood pressure, dehydration, headaches and nausea.
Although unpleasant, these side effects are common, and health professionals will continuously monitor you. Should you find the detoxification unbearable, you may be prescribed a prescription drug to alleviate the withdrawal symptoms encountered.
After you have successfully completed detoxification, you will then progress onto the rehabilitation stage of our cannabis rehab treatment programme.
Throughout rehabilitation, you will be required to participate in individual and group therapy sessions/support groups.
At Ocean Recovery, we offer a wide range of psychological and well-being therapies that are proven to reverse cannabis addiction.
Although the therapy you are subject to will entirely depend on the impact your addiction has had on you, the therapy usually provided includes Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, psychotherapy, holistic therapies and relaxation techniques.
Irrespective of the therapy you are offered during your time in cannabis rehab, you will be encouraged to identify the factors that caused your addiction to arise and the triggers you experience.
In doing so, you will have the ability to work with our recovery team and develop coping strategies that will prevent you from relapsing in the future.
Aftercare Support
Following discharge, we encourage all of our patients to participate in weekly aftercare sessions. These sessions are offered for a period of twelve months following the completion of residential treatment.
