Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Palmer, MA.

When a person is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will likely feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detox facility or rehab facility so that the person has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Palmer that individuals can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and may need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times cause an unexpected overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and gaining access to a robust system of support could truly save your life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This may be necessary for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be favored among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
