When a person is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be managed in a professional detoxification center or rehab facility so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Colorado Springs that clients can pick from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. In any case, 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 risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an unintended overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and securing access to a strong system of support could truly save the individual's life.
Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated 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 result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.
Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This might be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be favored among opioid dependent individuals, who would prefer to be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
