Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Ignacio, CO.

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a professional detox center or rehab facility so that the client has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Ignacio that individuals can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an unintended overdose, so getting supervised detoxification services and having access to a robust system of support could actually save the person's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. 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 subside within a few days on their own and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural detox.

Medical detoxification is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This may be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox might also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would want receive medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
