The first step in recovering from drug addiction is finding a detox program. Many addicts fear the detox process because they don’t want to go through the physical discomfort of the withdrawal symptoms. It’s true that the detoxification process takes an incredible amount of physical and mental strength, but it’s not impossible. People do it every day, and if they stick with their recovery program, they don’t have to return to this time in their life.

Certain approaches to drug detox are more effective than others. A medical and naturopathic detox program offers much success for all types of drug addictions, including those too hard drugs like meth or heroin. These integrative detox programs make the detox process as manageable as possible and contribute to a healthier lifestyle overall.

Benefits To Natural Drug Detox

Let’s take a look at some of the benefits of natural drug detox, and what you can expect from an integrative detox program.

• Effective removal of toxins. Using a combination of dry sauna and IV therapy, the “bad” stuff is removed from the body and the “good” stuff is replaced.

• Long-term healthy habits. A naturopathic detox program looks at more than just the addiction to hard drugs. It promotes overall health and well-being through diet, exercise, and effective coping strategies.

• Complete healing. Any type of natural recovery program will promote total healing – mind, body, and spirit. It also addresses co-occurring conditions that can interfere with a healthy recovery.

Ways To Make Detox From Hard Drugs Safe And Manageable

Detoxing off hard drugs isn’t a pleasant process, but a natural detox program can make the process more manageable. You or a loved one will be monitored 24-hour hours a day, which means any symptoms that surface can be managed.

There are a variety of medications available for treating physical withdrawal symptoms. Some relieve symptoms by replicating the effects of the drug at a lower intensity, while others treat specific symptoms like irritability, anxiety or seizures. There are also medications used specifically to reduce cravings and prevent relapse.

A natural detox program will also utilize alternative therapies to provide additional management. These include:

• Vitamin IV therapy
• Oral vitamin therapy
• Sauna treatments
• Massage therapy
• Acupuncture
• Biofeedback
