Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Walsenburg, CO.

When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be done 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 mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Walsenburg that clients can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and may 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 at home on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an unintended overdose, so receiving supervised detox services and having access to an extensive system of support could literally save your life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there might 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 present harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medical detox takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This may be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medical detoxification might also be preferred among opioid dependent individuals, who would rather be given medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
