Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Jamestown, TN.

When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detoxification facility or treatment facility so that the individual has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Jamestown that individuals can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an accidental overdose, so getting supervised detoxification services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could actually save the individual's life.

Some programs offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected 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 produce severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a natural detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility with the use of medications. This could be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will require medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather receive medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
