Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Cayucos, CA.

When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be managed in a professional detoxification facility or treatment facility so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Cayucos that people can pick from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can at times result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining supervised detox services and securing access to an extensive system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural detox.

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This could be necessary for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would rather be given medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
