What do our clients say?

Dear Darren and everyone at Jintara, Sorry I took so long to send you an update. I just wanted to let you know I am doing great and still sober after 4 months. I started a new job 2 months ago, and really, I could not be happier with my life. I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone at Jintara. I was feeling pretty low when I made the decision to come to Jintara. You guys got me mentally, physically and emotionally back on track and motivated. My Therapist was incredible. My fitness routine helped me lose 5kg, and tell Lek I am now nearly 10kg lighter. The Chefs, my masseuse, the nurses and everyone were amazing. And the front desk team were so helpful…even on my difficult days…sorry about those. My family are so pleased have me back and also send their gratitude. I wish you all the best and I would not hesitate sending anyone who needed help to Jintara. Much love and thanks.

My journey began in Dara Rehab in 2017.  Unfortunately COVID found me without a job, no access to the gym and limited places I could go. I relapsed due to sheer boredom and anxiety and could net even get admitted into rehab. I called Dara, only to find out it had not yet reopened, but was able to go to Jintara, and received my Alumni discount (thank you). I initially planned t stay 4-weeks, but extended to 6-weeks. It was an amazing experience - very different to Dara in that it was only 9-clients when I was there, and in Chiang Mai instead of the island. I prefer the smaller group size and he older demographic...as well as the rooms.

I really appreciated all the staff, especially Lek, my trainer and the Chefs, and of course, the Therapists. If you are looking to chat with someone who has been to Jintara, I have offered my WhatsApp to Jintara for you to contact me, and could not speak more highly.

I remember that very first phone call. I had almost given up, and didn’t really expect anyone to answer the phone that late at night. But I spoke to the Owner (Darrin) personally for over 1 hour and he was patient and caring and really understood my needs. The next day, I had an assessment with a Therapist (Ken) and we again discussed my needs and what my program would look like, and for the first time in a long time, I had some hope…

A week later I was in Jintara. I stayed 2 months and it was probably the best decision of my life. I’d go as far to say that Jintara saved my life. I have to credit the amazing staff at Jintara – from the support team and nurses, to the therapists, fitness staff, massage lady, Chefs, housekeepers and even the gardener. I cannot thank you enough for what you gave me. Credit also to all the other clients, some of whom I stay in touch with and we check in on each other. It was a remarkable experience, far beyond what I expected.

Thank you for everything Jintara. 

Jintara helped me get my life back. The staff is so friendly and helpful that you are able to concentrate on doing the work to successfully recover. The therapists are incredibly knowledgeable and the groups are amazing. It is quite obvious the owner is in the business of helping people and not for the money. They truly take care of the whole person body, mind, and soul. I will be forever thankful that I found this amazing place!!!

A month at this rehab changed my life. Every staff and other clients has been very supportive without any judgements. I am truly grateful to everyone of them. The therapist genuinely care about our well being. I felt like home, it felt like a big warm family. Thank you for this life changing experience!

I spent a month and couple of weeks at Jintara and everything is PERFECT, thanks to everyone works in jintara.

The experience of the clinical team is bar none..they are experts in their field. Quality support and therapy. The facility is clean and pleasant. Thai style furnishings and surroundings. Not being kept in facility through the week and participating in outdoor gym exercise, excursions, and dinners at restaurants definitely helps alleviate the cabin fever that can be experienced at being at an inpatient facility. It is great to have the opportunity to go grocery shopping as well. The program is well rounded, with mix of western and eastern practices. Psychology, mindfulness, yoga and sound healing to name some. Support staff are friendly. Overall an intense therapeutic journey that gives as much as you are willing to open yourself to it.

My experience at Jintara exceeded all of my expectations. The care and support provided by all of the Jintara staff was exceptional. The center was well run, with all of the staff working hard in all areas of operations so that I was able to focus on my self and my recovery path. From the healthy foods, nursing support, operational support, therapy, exercise and excursions I was always well cared for. All I needed to do was show up and do the work. The center was beautiful, and the apartment accommodations were exceptional. The quality of education and counseling is top notch. I spent two months at Jintara, and was able to build a strong foundation for my life in recovery as well as learn how to go forward on my path, continuing to grow and be a healthy me. I achieved a holistic reboot, and I enjoyed doing it.

I spent a month at Jintara and found it to be an extremely beneficial experience. The therapists were exceptional, balancing self discovery with practical steps forward. The program was holistic and fun and included excursions and recreation. The facilities were spacious and well maintained, and the food healthy and yummy. Most of all, the staff and entire team were exceptional and really made the entire experience so much more positive. I can't recommend this enough for anyone struggling with substance and looking to get better.

I spent a month at Jintara and very much appreciated the full program of mental and physical wellbeing. Everything was taken care of by the very friendly staff, from exercise activities to diet concerns and therapy. Large comfortable accommodation, relaxing riverside location, and excursions made the time pass too quickly! I couldn't have asked for more.
