Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Shock, WV.

When someone is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detox center or treatment center so that the individual has eliminated the drugs from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Shock that clients can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting 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 the many medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and securing access to a strong system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

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