Alcohol Detox
Alcohol is the drug of choice for many individuals. It’s easy to access, inexpensive, and abundant. But the effects of alcohol abuse on the suffering individual and the family can be devastating.
Since alcohol withdrawal symptoms can be as severe as those from powerful opiates and street drugs, stopping alcohol use abruptly and without a medically supervised plan is not just difficult — it’s dangerous. Moreover, alcoholics desiring to quit often return to the substance after feeling minimal withdrawal symptoms.
Detoxification can be a frightening and treacherous experience, especially if using the “cold turkey” method or “rapid detoxification”.
But medical detoxification can be a safe, even gratifying experience when done under the watchful eye of physicians specializing in addiction treatment.
A professional treatment center provides safe, compassionate, medically supervised detoxification in a serene and comfortable environment. Our program is a medically managed inpatient process designed to cleanse and rid the body of the toxic substance while carefully managing the mental and physical withdrawal symptoms. Our trained medical staff helps each individual work through the detoxification program, reducing the withdrawal symptoms from alcohol and drugs such as amphetamines, cocaine, benzodiazepines, prescription drugs, and opiates among others.
