Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Hancock, VT.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a professional detoxification center or rehab center so that the individual has fully removed 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 Hancock that clients can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and securing access to a robust system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some programs offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or complications based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medical detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medical detoxification might also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would want be given medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
