When someone is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment facility so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Holyoke that clients can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting 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 risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an unexpected overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and having access to a strong system of support could truly save the person's life.
Some programs provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or complications based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.
Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This might be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would want be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
