About Paracelsus Recovery
Established in Zurich in 2012 by the Gerber family, Paracelsus Recovery was founded on a pioneering vision for mental health and addiction treatment. The Clinic was the first in developing the unique one-client-at-a-time model and the comprehensive 360° approach. Notably, the Institution was also among the first to integrate functional medicine into rehabilitation, creating a more holistic and effective pathway to sustained recovery.

Recognized globally as a premier center for luxury rehab, Paracelsus Recovery delivers highly personalized, interdisciplinary treatment supported by an exceptional 15:1 staff-to-client ratio. Methodology is truly distinctive – every aspect of care is meticulously customized for the individual, ensuring unparalleled medical, psychological, and holistic support.

To maintain leadership in therapeutic innovation, clinic’s Medical Advisory Board is guided by Nobel Prize Laureate Professor Südhof. This ensures the incorporation of the latest scientific advancements into our programs. With a team of distinguished experts, access to cutting-edge treatments, and a secluded private lakefront setting, Paracelsus Recovery define the standard for elite, individualized rehabilitation.

Rehab Treatments and Therapies in Paracelsus Recovery

World-leading experts with you at every step of your journey
Every patient will have a dedicated team of world-renowned doctors and therapists. And with a Nobel prize-winning medical advisory board, you can be sure of unparalleled medical and therapeutic excellence.

The most comprehensive, innovative and cutting-edge treatment worldwide

Paracelsus Recovery recognizes that individual health is a product of one's relationship with oneself. For this reason, Paracelsus Clinic does not adopt a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. Instead, Paracelsus Recovery adapts each programme to each client’s unique set of needs. The clinic's approach uses cutting-edge treatments combined with holistic care and guidance from its team of world-renowned doctors, therapists, and specialists to inform and support clients on their journey to recovery.

A 360-degree treatment that considers the whole person — mind, body, and soul.

Paracelsus Recovery was the first treatment centre to introduce functional medicine and interdisciplinary methods into its treatment programme. Since the beginning, the clinic has known that symptoms are a consequence of imbalances in life. Healing requires understanding how and why they came to be so that it can treat the underlying cause, not just the symptoms.

Path to healing, tailored entirely to you.

Each of Paracelsus Recovery's treatment programmes is carefully curated to each client’s unique set of needs. Those needs may be physical and psychological, e.g., if its team identifies nutritional deficiencies or signs of depression during the assessment period, the client's programme would be shaped with these in mind. Its pragmatic nature extends into the every day – from work to travel obligations, the clinic is happy to accommodate client needs.

Cutting edge medicine

Paracelsus Recovery works closely with the Zurich University Clinic, ensuring it remains at the forefront of medical research. Many of its key team members have played pivotal roles in shaping the present – and continue to shape the future – of their respective disciplines. The client's programme will be curated by world-renowned doctors, including a Nobel Prize laureate and Harvard Medical School alumni. Cutting-edge advancements in medical care guide its work – whether it’s a full-body MRI, one of its 70+ laboratory tests, or psychedelic psychotherapy and vitamin infusions, the clinic will make sure to provide each diagnostic and treatment necessary for the client's recovery.

Clinic meets you where you are at

For over 12 years, Paracelsus Recovery has treated all kinds of health conditions. Often, its clients find themselves alienated, deeply dependent on something that’s harming their health, and feeling shame or paranoia. At Paracelsus Recovery, the clinic strives for growth – whether that’s working with the client's assigned team or solely with the client, or treating the client for weeks or just hours at a time. The institution takes the steps to ease the client into their journey to healing.

For instance, if the client is struggling with substance abuse, growth might mean total sobriety or it might mean using less. If it’s a mental health issue, it might mean completely eradicating the condition from the client's life, or it might involve finding ways to make the client's symptoms work for them, rather than against them.

A place of healing

Switzerland is synonymous with medical excellence, and for good reason. Health and well-being are ingrained into its way of life – a product of the safety, nature, and quality of care available within the country.

Paracelsus Recovery is based in Zurich – a city with some of the world’s best hospitals, clinics, and medical facilities, many of which are its partner hospitals and centres. The city’s blend of modern medicine, clean air, and world-renowned landscapes makes it an unparalleled place for growth, clarity, and starting over.
