Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Shingle Springs, CA.

When a person is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detoxification facility or treatment center so that the person has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Shingle Springs that individuals can select from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an unexpected overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some programs offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or complications based off of the individual's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be done without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medical detox takes place in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detox might also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would want receive medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
