Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Junction City, KY.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detoxification facility or rehab center so that the client has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body 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 Junction City that people can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an unexpected overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and having access to a strong system of support could actually save the individual's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't likely that there might be any risks or complications based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This may be necessary for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detoxification might also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would want be given medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
