One Step Rehab Thailand

What One Step Rehab Thailand does

One Step Rehab Thailand is a privately-held, owner-operated residential addiction treatment centre located near Chiang Mai, Thailand, legally constituted as One Step (Thailand) Co., Ltd. The facility operates a single 14-bed site with average occupancy of approximately 10 clients, offering 28-day minimum programmes and recommended 6-12 week stays for alcohol use disorder, drug addiction (including cocaine, methamphetamine, ketamine, fentanyl, heroin, cannabis, and benzodiazepines), behavioural addictions, and dual diagnosis presentations involving depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, and personality disorders. Treatment is built on a proprietary five-pillar framework (Detox & Stabilisation, Evidence-Based Counselling, Holistic Therapy, Fitness & Nutrition, Relapse Prevention), integrating CBT, DBT, ACT, motivational interviewing, EMDR, mindfulness, and body-based therapies with a fitness-focused modality centred on an in-house Muay Thai boxing camp, gym, pool, and dopamine-smart nutrition programming. Medically complex withdrawals are routed to a partner hospital before residential transfer, and a 12-month free post-discharge aftercare programme supports alumni continuity.

The business model is direct-to-consumer with no intermediaries: clients are acquired through content marketing (educational blog, SEO per substance type), earned media in The Spectator, The Guardian, Marie Claire, National Post, and New.com.au, YouTube testimonials, alumni referrals, and direct phone/email inquiry. Revenue is generated from a single all-inclusive programme fee of approximately ฿280,000 per month (~$8,500 USD), positioned at roughly one-third to one-fifth of equivalent Western residential programmes ($25,000-$40,000/month). Extended-stay pricing is discounted on a month-by-month basis. The customer base is overwhelmingly international — primarily from the UK, US, Canada, and Australia — and the facility does not accept clients under age 20. The company is led by founders Alastair Mordey (Programme Director) and Thineeporn Mordey/Fihn (Operations Manager) with a clinical team including a Thai-licensed consultant psychiatrist; it has no disclosed institutional capital, parent company, or board structure. Note: source data contains a founding-year conflict between 2009 (company history) and 2023 (firmographics); the 15+ years of founder experience referenced throughout is consistent with the 2009 date being closer to operational reality, though this should be verified independently.

Regional players

• Paracelsus Recovery: Boutique high-end residential addiction and mental health treatment clinic in Zurich, Switzerland, treating an international ultra-high-net-worth clientele. Comparable on residential addiction model and dual-diagnosis capability, but operates at the opposite end of the price spectrum and in a Western European jurisdiction.
• The Kusnacht Practice: Ultra-luxury residential addiction and psychiatric treatment facility near Zurich, Switzerland, combining medical detox with bespoke therapy and biohacking. Comparable on premium residential addiction treatment for international clients, but located in a high-cost European market serving a different price tier.
• Castle Craig Hospital: Established UK-based residential addiction and psychiatric treatment hospital in Scotland serving primarily UK and European clients. Comparable on residential treatment model and clinical methodology, but operates in a higher-cost Western geography with primarily domestic patients, making it a regional rather than direct competitor.

Broad incumbents

• Promises Malibu / Cliffside Malibu: Luxury US residential addiction treatment centres serving affluent domestic and international clients at premium price points. Comparable on residential treatment methodology and high-touch clinical model, but positioned in a far higher price band than One Step's affordable mid-market offering.
• Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation: Large US-based nonprofit operator of residential addiction treatment centres and outpatient programs across the United States. Comparable on residential substance abuse treatment delivery, but operates as a broad multi-site incumbent with significantly larger scale, accreditation footprint, and clinical research capabilities than One Step.

Direct peers

• Sunrise Rehab Thailand: Small private residential rehab in Thailand treating international clients with a fitness, wellness, and CBT-based approach. Closely comparable on facility size, mid-tier pricing, and emphasis on fitness/holistic components alongside evidence-based therapy.
• DARA Thailand: Residential drug and alcohol rehab on Koh Chang and in other Thai locations targeting international clients from Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific. Directly comparable on service offering (residential substance abuse treatment), price point in the affordable mid-market, and English-speaking international patient model.
• Hope Rehab Thailand: Residential addiction treatment centre in Thailand (originally Hua Hin, with newer sister facilities) focused on international clients seeking affordable alternatives to Western rehabs. Comparable on core residential addiction offering, mid-market pricing, and international patient acquisition via SEO and referrals.
• The Cabin Chiang Mai: Long-established Western-run residential addiction treatment centre in Chiang Mai, Thailand, serving international (largely Australian and UK) clients. Directly comparable to One Step on geography, target market, clinical model (CBT/DBT-based), and outbound medical-tourism positioning, with larger capacity.

Others

• Release My Super: Australian financial services firm that helps clients access Australian superannuation funds to pay for overseas addiction treatment, including at One Step. Listed as an actual partner of One Step; relevant as an ecosystem enabler that expands the addressable patient pool and eases a major affordability friction for inbound Australian clients.
