Drug Detox Centers: What You Need to Know

Drug detox centers have one purpose: to help you rid yourself of the toxins that have built up during your drug use and your body’s dependence to your drug of choice. When you stop using drugs and alcohol, your body goes into withdrawal and it is the physical symptoms that occur due to withdrawal that make drug detox centers so necessary. Choose a drug detox center to assist you during detox and you will receive help in easing your withdrawal symptoms and make your detox experience as comfortable as possible.

At Orchid Recovery Center, we help women everyday as they undergo alcohol detox, cocaine detox, heroin detox, opiate detox and more. We can help you, too!

Types of Drug Detox Centers

There are a number of different types of detox centers. Some detox a specific drug while others focus on just men or women or teens. Some provide a medical detox with medication to ease the withdrawal symptoms and send you home to take the medication on your own. Others provide inpatient services as you detox and prescribe meds as you need them. Some incorporate counseling while others send you home as soon as any medical danger has passed and still others provide a brief respite or even treatment after the detox is complete to help you rebuild your physical and emotional health.

At Orchid Recovery Center, our detox is designed for women who are addicted to alcohol, any drug and any combination of drugs. We provide medical, emotional and physical assistance as you go through detox and help you ease into drug treatment at our same facility as soon as you are ready.

Drug Detox Centers: A Complement to Treatment

Drug detox alone is not enough to help you sustain a life without drugs and alcohol. Although absolutely vital to the process and a solid first step, drug detox must be followed up by an efficient and effective drug treatment program that addresses the mental, spiritual, emotional and physical aspects of changing the foundation for your life. At Orchid Recovery Center, our goal is to make your drug detox experience as comfortable as possible.

Drug Detox Centers: What to Expect

Starting with an in-depth evaluation during admission to determine whether or not you have any medical conditions that need monitoring, detox should be a very thorough process. Next, your drug detox will focus on stabilizing you physically and mentally without the use of your substance of choice. This can take a few days, even a week or more, depending upon the substance and the level of addiction. Finally, your entry into treatment is the focus as you are now physically able to attend groups, therapy and classes. You do not need to feel 100 percent at your best for this move from detox to treatment to take place. Rather, treatment will provide the mending and healing time you need to recuperate after detox.
