Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Salinas, CA.

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detoxification center or rehab center so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Salinas that individuals can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone considering detox or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of the many medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an unexpected overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and gaining access to a strong system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some programs offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medically assisted detox is done in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This could be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with particular prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detox might also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
