When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a professional detoxification center or rehab center so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Steamboat Springs that individuals can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone detoxing or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining supervised detox services and having 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 expected that there would be any risks or complications based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.
Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This might be necessary for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be favored among opioid dependent clients, who would want be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
