Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Watertown, MA.

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a professional detoxification center or treatment center so that the individual has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Watertown that people can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone considering detox or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detox services and having access to an extensive system of support could actually save the individual's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be required for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medical detox might also be preferred among opioid dependent clients, who would rather receive detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
