Rehab Center for Medical Opioid Detox Serving Santa Cruz & San Jose, CA

Why Detox from Opioids at The Camp Recovery Center

Heroin and prescription pain medications, including Vicodin and OxyContin, are all considered opioids. When these medications are abused, they can lead to the development of an addiction that can take over an individual’s whole life. From one’s work life, social life, and family life, an opioid addiction can ravage through every aspect of an individual’s existence, as it is one of the most powerful, and possibly deadly forms of chemical dependency.

Provided the harm that an opioid addiction can cause within an individual’s life, attending rehab at a treatment center is almost always required in order to end this type of addiction. In fact, for those who do not partake in effective and appropriate care, the resulting effects of staying addicted to opioids can include permanent damage to one’s physical and psychological health, and even death at the hands of a lethal overdose. Considering these detriments, it is wise to consider care that includes both detoxification services and therapeutic rehab interventions. Also referred to as detox, detoxification services are a specific aspect of care that thoroughly addresses the physical element of addiction in the beginning stages of one’s recovery. These services can also help women and men solidify the first steps required to eventually become sober and free from opioid addiction.

What Happens During Opioid Withdrawal

Opioid withdrawal is said to be one of the most painful and upsetting forms of drug withdrawal known today. When an individual has abused heroin and/or prescription painkillers to an extent where his or her body has grown used to the presence of the opioid, withdrawal symptoms are likely to manifest as soon as the person is no longer partaking in opioid abuse.

Withdrawing from opioids can include bodily aches and pains, strong cravings for more of one’s opioid of choice, and feeling sick. Because these symptoms can be very disruptive and painful, many individuals will relapse and start using opioids once more. However, if an individual participates in rehab that includes medically monitored detox services, not only can an individual experience a less upsetting withdrawal process, but he or she can obtain what is necessary in order to make exceptional strides in his or her road to recovery.

Long-Term Benefits of Opioid Detox

When an individual does not obtain rehab for an opioid addiction, or if an individual does not engage in detox services for this form of chemical dependency concern, the results can be devastating. For those who remain physically dependent upon opioids, one or more relapses can occur, which can further prevent an individual from breaking free from the chains of addiction. However, for the women and men who do participate in detox at a rehab center, there is a stronger likelihood that they will be able to more effectively prevent relapse and go on to live healthy, recovered lives.

Participation in detoxification allows an individual to achieve the improved health and clarity of mind needed to understand why and how he or she develop an addiction to opioids. With these benefits, an individual is more capable to fully engage him or herself in the rehab programming, which can help to restore the confidence and skills needed to abstain from opioids like prescription painkillers and heroin for a lifetime.
