At-Home Detox Treatment

When a person decides to seek detox treatment, they often express concern about going to an impersonal facility and feeling uncomfortable. MD Home Detox offers executive detox for our clients who prefer to complete their detox in the comfort of their own homes. This provides them with a less stressful experience and more privacy than they would receive at an inpatient facility.

 

What is At-Home Detox?

During detoxification, harmful drugs and toxins are released from the body. Also known as drug or alcohol detox, this process typically brings on withdrawal symptoms. These vary in severity—some symptoms even cause life-threatening complications. Due to these dangerous circumstances, medical supervision is needed throughout detox. Though patients have traditionally undergone detoxification in a medical facility or addiction center, at-home options are currently available. With a program that allows you to safely detox at home, your comfort and convenience can now be prioritized alongside your health.

The goal of detoxification is to get clients through the withdrawal process safely and effectively. To ensure you receive the best physical and mental health care possible, a board-certified addiction specialist and treatment team will assist in the detoxification phase of your treatment. The private nursing staff will closely monitor your vital signs, medication needs, sleep patterns, and nutritional intake. Once home detox is completed, you will be ready to continue addressing your substance use disorders in individual, group, and/or family therapies.

The detox phase must be completed and the client medically stable before proceeding with further treatment. It is crucial that the client be allowed to return to their natural state of mind, body, and spirit – free of drugs and alcohol – before addressing substance use and ​​co-occurring disorders.

How Does Executive Detox Work?

At-home detox is not a one-size-fits-all process. Each client is treated individually, in order to meet their unique needs. Additionally, the clinical staff must be prepared for the intensity of withdrawal symptoms and how long they may last. Though these cannot be concretely determined, knowing the indicators is still helpful in deciding on a detox plan. Typical influencers in detoxification include:

• Physical and mental health history
• Triggers for drug use
• Family history
• Type of substance used
• How long a substance was used

• Amount of substance used
• Overall health
• Method of use
• Family dynamics
• Community/Environmental factors

Detoxing at home can be a simple process. Though withdrawal symptoms will be strong, clinical staff will ensure that you are kept as comfortable as possible. The following are steps in the at-home detox process:

Once the detox process comes to an end, trained staff will work with you towards creating an aftercare plan. The plan will include further treatment and work towards long-term recovery.

Withdrawal Symptoms During Detox

The body will need to adjust to how it worked prior to substance use, which means uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms will occur during detox. Unfortunately, this transitionary period is not pleasant. However, at-home detox supports you through the detoxification process. Once the process is over, you will feel rejuvenated and relieved. Early withdrawal symptoms include:

• Elevated temperature
• Nasal congestion and discharge
• Excessive yawning
• Sore/achy muscles and joints

• Insomnia
• Increased blood pressure
• Abnormal amount of perspiration

The severity of these side effects may continue to worsen as detox continues. Progressive withdrawal symptoms include:

• Heightened cravings
• Depression/anxiety
• Upset stomach

• Pain in the abdomen
• Diarrhea
• Nausea/vomiting
