Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Springfield, OR.

When someone is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a professional detoxification center or rehab facility so that the client has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Springfield that people can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone considering detox or wanting 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 the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and having access to a strong system of support could literally save your life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. 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 alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medical detox may also be favored among opioid dependent individuals, who would want be given detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
