What a whirlwind that was! Always takes a few days to decompress after the annual Masters Event in Oxford 😅

It was a pleasure to both sponsor and attend this event. We had a number of representatives in attendance (in the photos here you'll see David, John, and Michele) who took great pleasure in catching up with familiar faces working in the recovery space, as well as forging new friendships with those not yet previously met.

Michele was fantastic on stage on the final day, taming a very lively crowd, and introducing our dear and talented friend Innocent Masuku who gave a fantastic operatic performance on our behalf.

All in all, a fantastic time at the Transform Trauma event in the UK, and already looking forward to next year's installment !

In addition to organising the amazing performance by the incredibly talented Innocent Masuku at this year’s Transform Trauma Masters Event in Oxford, we were also on hand to give attendees a virtual tour of our facilities... using state-of-the-art VR technology.

It was a pleasure to show you all where we come from and what we do! ☺️

We've had an AMAZING time again this year at the Transform Trauma event in Oxford, UK! We spoke to so many truly inspirational people working in this industry, forging new connections while also reinforcing preexisting one.

It was so great to see you all there - here's a pic from our very own Michele who was representing White River at this multi-day event. Thanks for all your hard work to date, Michele! 🙏

Today we celebrate a very special milestone for our Director and Co-Founder, Giles - 20 years in recovery 💙

Giles often shares how much joy he finds in giving back, and how White River Manor and the Recovery Centre have become an extension of his own journey. Through his work, countless people have found safety, healing, and hope... proof that recovery doesn’t just change one life, it creates ripples that touch many more.

Congratulations, Giles, on 20 years. Your story continues to inspire us all.

“I will be there as guidance, I will be there to support you, but I’ll never tell you what to do.” - Dr. Magda Rall, Head Therapist at White River Manor.

Recovery isn’t something handed to you. It’s a partnership. Our team is here with compassion, honesty, and decades of experience - but the real transformation comes from within.

At White River Manor, we believe in empowering clients to take ownership of their journey, with the reassurance that they’ll never have to walk it alone.

Today we are celebrating Heritage Day in South Africa!! 🥳

We’re honored to share this day with the beautiful women in the photo - women whose hearts, cultures, and stories are woven into the fabric of White River Manor. Their joy, pride, and presence remind us of how much richness there is in our diversity.

As we mark this day, we pause with gratitude... for South African roots, traditions, and the unity that emerges when we celebrate the many colours of this nation. May we always listen deeply, appreciate broadly, and build bridges across all heritages.

Happy Heritage Day to all South Africans - today and every day, may we continue to grow in respect, understanding, and celebration 🙏

Why South Africa?

When people think of luxury recovery, they often think of facilities in Europe or the US. But more and more people are now opting for South Africa… and for good reason.

At White River Manor, world-class clinical care meets breathtaking surroundings. Nestled near Kruger National Park, our programmes combine evidence-based therapies with restorative experiences in nature, plus the comforts of five-star accommodation.

An added factor is the strength of international currencies in relation to the rand - meaning luxury rehab in South Africa can offer unmatched value for those visiting from overseas. Exceptional care can be found at a fraction of the cost of similar centres abroad.

For a fuller overview, check out a recent blog post about the topic here: https://www.whiterivermanor.com/news/why-south-africa-offers-unmatched-value-for-luxury-rehab/

What is CBT?

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is one of the most widely used, evidence-based approaches in mental health and addiction treatment.

At its core, CBT is about connection: helping you see how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are linked... and how shifting one can begin to change the others.

Instead of staying stuck in old patterns, CBT gives you practical tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts, manage difficult emotions, and make healthier choices day by day.

At White River Manor, CBT is often integrated alongside trauma therapies, holistic practices, and personalised care - forming part of a much bigger picture of recovery.

Amazing news! ✨ We’re thrilled to share that internationally acclaimed tenor Innocent Masuku will be representing White River Manor at this year’s big Transform Trauma event in Oxford, UK.

This Masters event (which will be held at the end of September) is Europe’s largest trauma, mental health, and wellbeing conference and brings together some of the most inspiring voices in the field.

It’s an honour for us to contribute once again this year 🙏 and thus get the chance to do something truly unique. As part of White River Manor's contribution, Innocent will take to the stage and give a short, but undoubtedly unforgettable, performance - a moment in time for music to meet healing and recovery in a way that words alone can’t capture.

In addition, this is just the beginning of a very special collaboration with Innocent.... but more details on that later! ☺️

“You slept eight hours last night but still woke up exhausted. Your body moved, but your mind lagged behind. You drank the coffee. You pushed through. But the mental fog stayed. Sound familiar?”

“You’re not just tired. You’re drained in a way that sleep alone cannot fix. This kind of exhaustion doesn’t come from staying up too late or getting up too early. It comes from living in survival mode for too long. From carrying what no one sees. From giving more than you have, day after day.”

As Clinical Psychologist Gert Janse van Rensburg reminds us in a recent piece on our website, rest is not just sleep - it’s the foundation of real recovery. At White River Manor, his work helps clients create the space to slow down, breathe, and begin to feel safe in their own bodies again.

“My husband was involved in a motorbike accident… living with chronic neuropathic pain led to him abusing pain medication. Before he went to White River Manor he was at another rehab but there was no success."

"At arrival at White River Manor he needed urgent effective treatment. Not being a very cooperative patient, they went above and beyond to assist him. The team at White River Manor were all helpful, supportive, and provided a holistic approach. Thanks to God and the skilled staff at White River Manor I got my husband back.” - Wilda V.

We are honoured to walk alongside families through moments like these, and remain so, so grateful for the trust placed in us ✨🙏

Recovery doesn’t have to mean four walls and fluorescent lights.

At White River Manor, your therapy session might be followed by a safari drive in Kruger National Park. Or a morning of whitewater rafting. Or standing at the edge of God’s Window, realising you feel lighter than you have in years.

Because here, the adventure is part of the healing.
