Alcohol
Alcohol is one of the most dangerous drugs to detox from due to spikes in blood pressure, potential of seizures and onset of DT's and should only be administered by a medical professional. Alcohol is the most commonly abused substance due to the acceptance of drinking as part of the social make up of our society. Our protocol is a four to five day detox program which allows our clients to safely and comfortably detox from Alcohol.
Benzodiazepines
Benzos, commonly known as Valium, Xanax and Klonopin, are drugs readily administered for anxiety, insomnia and panic attacks. They are often abused, which leads to an unhealthy addiction and cannot be stopped in an abrupt manner. The detox can bring about the same symptoms that the drugs were originally prescribed for, and therefore needs to be closely monitored by medical personnel.
Opiates
Opiates a narcotic used to treat pain, is one of the most abused drugs in the United States. Symptoms of the withdrawal include insomnia, muscle aches, nausea and abdominal cramping. Our detox protocol helps to alleviate most of the severe withdrawal symptoms and we strive to keep our clients as comfortable as possible during this process.
Cocaine
The detox from cocaine generally have symptoms of depression, agitation and fatigue. The biggest issues is that most cocaine addicts will often use alcohol, sedatives, hypnotics, or anti-anxiety medicines to treat their symptoms. Long-term use of these drugs is not recommended because it simply shifts addiction from one substance to another. Under proper medical supervision, however, short-term use of these medicines may be helpful in recovery.
Psychiatric Addiction Physician
The psychiatric addiction physician is one of the most important aspects in the detox process to ensure that the correct medical detox protocol is prescribed. The psychiatrist not only manages the detox but also understands any underlying conditions which are not being treated and may recommend medications to help with depression, anxiety, bi-polar and cravings.
Recovery Support and After Care
The detox process is just the beginning. Our goal is to find the client support during the detox process and to make healthy choices once the client is safely detoxed from drugs and/or alcohol. We guide the client towards a healthy life style which would include new coping skills, nutrition, physical fitness and support groups that fits the clients ideology.
