Program Spotlight: Outpatient Opiate Detox

Until It’s Done-Outpatient Opiate Detox Program-NewBeginningsRecoveryNew Beginnings Recovery Center’s Outpatient Opiate Detox Program is available to those who are looking for a safe and more comfortable method of detox that will help them overcome the withdrawal effects of opiates.

Outpatient Detox Program

We offer a specialized outpatient program for individuals who are dependent on opiates and other types of painkillers. By choosing our outpatient program, clients can detox comfortably from prescription medications while still attending work, school or other responsibilities.

Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome (PAWS)

Those who are detoxing from Suboxone® are especially prone to experiencing the symptoms of Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome (PAWS) (persistent problems that happen after withdrawal). During this stage, most people report similar types of experiences, characterized by these symptoms among others:

  • Anxiety
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Irritability
  • Mood swings
  • Depression
  • Sleep disturbances
  • Tiredness
  • Variable energy
  • Greater sensitivity to pain

At New Beginnings Recovery Center, we have refined our detox protocol so that both the acute and post acute symptoms are minimized. Suboxone® tends to effect people so that their opiate withdrawal symptoms last longer and the PAWS symptoms are more intense than with other opiates. Our Suboxone® outpatient detox has been modified to address these issues.

Ongoing Treatment Plan After Detox

Once our clients complete any of our Outpatient Opiate Detox Programs, we perform a follow-up evaluation to determine their mental state and to understand the underlying reasons for addiction. An ongoing treatment plan, customized to meet each individual’s needs, will be developed. These customized treatment plans can include holistic therapies, individual and group counseling, mental health services, nutritional support and much, much more.

To prevent relapse, we also provide real-life tools to help clients cope with cravings and stressors in the real world.

Program Spotlight: Integrative Medical Addiction Treatment Programs

Treating addiction involves looking at several aspects of a client’s lifestyle. Substance abuse has the potential to impact a person’s life in a number of ways. To achieve the goal of long-term sobriety, a treatment program needs to approach the disease from several fronts. The medical addiction treatment programs available here at New Beginnings Recovery Center offers help to treat the entire person.

Integrative Medical Addiction Treatment Programs-New Beginnings Center

Our approach to healing integrates clients’ body, mind and spirit. We make sure to look at the lifestyle aspects of each individual, since this is part of what determines each person’s needs when seeking help for substance abuse. Clients can benefit from both conventional and alternative therapies as part of their program.

Restore Neurotransmitter Restoration Program

Our Restore Neurotransmitter Restoration Program includes providing IV treatments and oral supplements including amino acids, vitamins and minerals. The advantage of this form of treatment is that it restores nutritional and neurotransmitter function that has been damaged by ongoing drug or alcohol use. As a result, a number of the symptoms commonly associated with withdrawal from drugs and alcohol are alleviated.

The vitamins and minerals also give a boost to an individual who may not have been eating very well due to their addiction. Starting this process early gives our clients a jump start on restoring their nutritional health.

The program is individualized to suit each client’s needs. The basic oral supplementation program begins during the evaluation process to repair stomach and cellular function.

Personalized IV amino restoration treatments are administered a minimum of three times per week for three weeks. Additional weeks of treatment will be scheduled, if necessary.

Once the treatment has been completed, assessments are conducted to determine a client’s oral maintenance protocol. It includes amino acids, as well as personalized medical recommendations to lower the likelihood of a relapse.

Integrative Detox Programs

At New Beginnings Recovery, our Integrative Detox Programs combine the traditional approach to detox medicine with complementary alternative medicine therapies. This includes our Restore Neurotransmitter Restoration Program.

To support our clients who are going through detox, we of course provide nutritional support counseling. This is important, since many people who have been living with addiction have neglected this basic building block of good health.

We also offer a unique laser addiction treatment program called Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT). LLLT is theorized to decrease anxiety and improve mood by increasing the brain’s “feel-good” hormones, endorphins.

Another alternative therapy we offer is visual imagery and progressive muscle relaxation techniques to help our clients get into a peaceful state of mind where they can use their own problem-solving skills to improve their lives.

Hypnotherapy is also offered, and it is also helpful for clients who are looking to achieve a peaceful frame of mind where they are free from worry and anxiety.

8 Things You Should Know About Drug Detox

Drug detoxification, or detox, is an essential part of an effective addiction treatment process. Until a client is free from the influence of chemicals, they cannot move forward to the next step of their recovery.

The following are 8 interesting facts about withdrawal and detoxification.

What You Should Know About Drug Detox

  1. Drug detox and rehabilitation are two separate stages of addiction treatment. During detox, a client goes through the stage where their body is freed from the influence of chemicals. Actual rehab treatment involves dealing with the causes of the addiction, healing emotional wounds and developing skills to prevent a relapse.
  1. Simply getting someone to stop using by going to detox is not enough to treat a drug addiction. Without further treatment, the individual has a greater chance of reverting to prior behaviors.
  1. 8 Things You Should Know About Drug Detox-NewBeginningsRecoveryCTR.comThe safest way to go through detox is under medical supervision. At New Beginnings Recovery Center, we offer an outpatient detox program. With our integrated medical approach to detoxification, clients receive the benefits of traditional detox medicine, as well as natural alternative treatments as they go through the process. We can provide the level of support as each client wants or needs during this time.
  1. Detox is not an easy thing to go through. An addict’s brain is used to getting its regular dose of said drug and when it is no longer getting it, the body experiences withdrawal symptoms. These can range from mild to severe, depending on the drug involved, the amount the person was used to taking, how long they were using and their body chemistry. Flu-like symptoms, stomach upsets, irritability and anxiety are some examples of what a person going through withdrawal may experience, as well as cravings for the drug.
  1. The length of time it takes to go through detoxification will vary for each person, but can vary from a couple days to a couple weeks depending on the pattern of use, the drug involved and the health of the individual.
  1. If an addict goes through detox and then starts using again, they will have a higher tolerance for the drug. Successful detox treatment also includes therapies to get a head start on drug rehab treatment.
  1. We understand that many of our clients have family, school and job responsibilities, so that’s why we offer an outpatient drug and alcohol detox program. By choosing this type of program, they don’t have to leave home and work for an extended period by checking into a residential program. They continue to live at home, and appointments can usually be scheduled to accommodate work and school responsibilities.
  1. Not everyone who tried to “get clean” by going through detox makes it through their first time. It doesn’t mean that they have failed or that they won’t ever be able to do it. All someone needs is the desire to make a change and live a drug-free life. Try again; we can offer you support during detox so that you can move onto our drug treatment program for successful lifelong recovery!

Individualized Outpatient Detox And Treatment Program

Detox is the first phase of a lifelong recovery. Our outpatient detox programs include medical supervision with a holistic approach to reduce withdrawal symptoms.

Long Term Recovery From Addiction Requires Step-By-Step Approach

Are you looking for help for yourself or a loved one who is addicted to drugs or alcohol? To achieve long term addiction recovery, your first step is to understand and accept that you are dealing with a chronic disease. By taking a step-by-step approach to treatment and working with the addictions counselors and other experts, you or your loved one will be able to reach this goal. The process works, and our clients know that they can trust us to partner with them as they move into sobriety.

First Step: Detoxification

Long Term Recovery From Addiction Requires Step-By-Step ApproachThe first step in helping a client on the road to recovery is to make sure that he or she is free from the influences of chemicals. Outpatient drug and alcohol detox programs are designed to give you or your loved one as much or as little hands-on support as needed, without having to check into a residential facility. The process is completed safely and comfortably at home. Each client is evaluated and a personalized addiction rehab plan is developed to meet his or her unique needs.

Next Step: Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

The IOP is an excellent choice for people who are unable to leave home and check into a residential program due to work, school or family responsibilities. We offer group meetings during the day and at night, five days a week. This intense schedule is necessary to lay the right foundation for long-term sobriety.

In some instances, clients are also dealing with mental health issues, such as anxiety and depression, along with addiction. Our Mental Health Services staff can provide treatment for people in this situation. If the mental health issues are not addressed, clients are at higher risk for a relapse. Their feelings of hopelessness and helplessness exist separately from the addiction and must be treated separately from it if they are going to be able to remain sober over the long term.

IOP An Important Recovery Step

IOP also has a place for clients who have recently left an inpatient treatment program. It is offered as part of the follow-up care that includes a sober living house, where clients continue to get support from experienced counselors while having an increased level of independence in their everyday lives.

Attending outpatient treatment sessions allows clients to discuss challenges they are facing as they return to a more independent lifestyle and start using strategies they are learning in treatment in the “real world.” They get help right away with any questions or concerns they have during this time of transition.

Navigating addiction and recovery can be a tricky process.  Let the professionals at New Beginnings Recovery Center get you the help you need today!

What Are The Stages Of Drug And Alcohol Detoxification?

The goal of drug and alcohol detoxification is to break free the toxins remaining from substance use. Since addicts are using substances regularly, their brains adapt to the presence of the chemical substance. Once they stop using, the person may experience both physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms. Drug and alcohol detox programs offer treatment to help clients cope with both of them.

Withdrawal symptoms can occur after using recreational or prescription drugs for an extended time. Each type of drug produces different types of withdrawal symptoms. Alcohol and tranquilizers produce more pronounced physical effects during detoxification, while others, like marijuana, have more psychological effects on users during this phase.

The Acute Stage Of Drug And Alcohol Detox

What Are The Stages Of Drug And Alcohol DetoxificationThe acute stage of drug and alcohol detox occurs at the beginning of the process. During this time, a client will experience the most noticeable physical symptoms related to withdrawal from drugs and/or alcohol.

Outpatient drug detox addresses a client’s needs by monitoring each client’s progress carefully. Medications are provided to reduce cravings, treat withdrawal symptoms and keep the person comfortable. Physical withdrawal symptoms may include the following:

  • Diarrhea
  • Muscle tension
  • Nausea
  • Racing heart
  • Sweating
  • Tightness in the chest
  • Trembling
  • Vomiting

Post-Acute Stage Of Drug And Alcohol Detox

During the post-acute stage of drug and alcohol detox, a person’s brain chemistry will gradually return to normal. Levels of brain chemicals will fluctuate, and the following symptoms are quite common:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Fatigue
  • Irritability
  • Sleep disturbances

Long-term alcohol use can result a Vitamin B1 deficiency, which can lead to memory loss. A client who is seeking detox in Florida from New Beginnings Recovery will be treated with a combination of B-complex, B-12, Folic Acid and amino acids as part of the restoration stage of detoxification.

Some of these medications are given orally, while others are injected. All of them help to restore balance to the body after someone stops drinking or using drugs. Since many clients may have neglected their nutritional needs while actively using substances, these medications also start to improve mood and mental clarity.

Support counseling is provided as part of the detox process for all clients at New Beginnings Recovery Center. For those people who want or need a higher level of care during this time, the Center offers optional Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) group counseling, as well as individual therapy. These programs can be customized to meet each client’s needs.

Restore™ Neurotransmitter Restoration Program: Natural Detox For Drug And Alcohol Withdrawal

One factor that may keep people from seeking help that they need for substance abuse is that they know they will need to go to detox before they will be able to move into a drug and alcohol counseling program. For those who have heard horror stories about how difficult withdrawal can be, it may be enough to discourage them from moving forward to into this new phase. Making a change and giving up something that may have been part of ones’ life for a number of years is a very scary thing to contemplate. When you add in the idea that there may be physical and psychological discomfort for several days (or longer), it makes the idea even less attractive. However, there is hope.

Medical Help With Detox

Restore™ Neuroreceptor Restoration Program | Natural Detox ProgramThe Restore Program uses a combination of IV and oral supplements so that clients receive the amino acids, vitamins, and minerals they need during this important process. In many cases, a person who has become addicted to drugs and/or alcohol has neglected his or her nutritional needs, and this program allows for introduction of quality nutrients quickly to help get a client on the road to better health quickly. The program also helps to alleviate a number of the symptoms associated with withdrawal and may help to keep clients more comfortable throughout the process.

How The Restore™ Program Works

Before a client can start the Neurotransmitter Restoration Program, the Restore Program details are reviewed and the client is given a medical evaluation. Lab testing must be performed to determine what each person’s individual needs are. (Since no two clients are exactly alike, this step is essential.) The entire program will take a minimum of three weeks. During this time, each client is carefully monitored. The basic oral supplement program is used to improve cellular and stomach function for all clients. Clients progress into the personalized IV amino acid restoration protocol after they receive their test results. At that point, they are scheduled for a minimum of three treatments per week for three weeks. Additional IV treatments may be scheduled, if necessary, on a case-by-case basis. Once this process is complete, another set of lab tests is conducted to determine the proper maintenance protocol for each client. Oral amino acids will be ordered, and other medical recommendations will be made to lower the risk of a relapse as a client moves forward and starts the work of going to drug and alcohol treatment sessions. It’s challenging to try to break free from the hold of drugs and alcohol, but the hard work will pay off in a lifetime of sobriety. Counseling cannot work if a client is still actively using, and the Restore™ Program helps clients navigate the detox process more comfortably so that they have a better chance of making it through to the other side.

Start The New Year By Getting Sober At New Beginnings

If there ever was a good time to take stock and make a change for the better, turning over the calendar to a new year is an excellent one. This is the traditional time when people make resolutions to make positive changes in their lives to turn over a new leaf. One of the best gifts you can give yourself this year (or any other time) is to get sober. Don’t let the idea that you have to go into a lengthy inpatient treatment program hold you back from getting the help you need. An intensive outpatient program offers a high level of care without interrupting your schedule.

Detox – First Step In Treatment

New Year Sobriety | Intensive Outpatient Treatment | Treatment ProgramIn order for addiction treatment to be effective, a client will need to be free from the influences of all chemicals. Outpatient detox programs help a client detox without having to stay long-term at a treatment facility. They can have the benefit of the support of family and friends, and continue to go to work or school during this process.

Each client’s needs are different, and expert staff is available to provide as much hands-on support as needed during the process. Once the detoxification is completed, a client can start his or her drug and alcohol addiction treatment program.

Personalized Treatment Programs

Several types of counseling programs can be used to get at the root of addiction and provide help to clients who want to make a fresh start in 2014. Individual therapy can help clients explore what made them turn to drugs and alcohol originally and assist them in developing strategies to deal with triggers that may make them want to start using again.

Mental health counseling addresses concerns that may not be directly related to the addiction, but which have a bearing on a client’s recovery. Through this process, they can get help for personal and relationship issues, as well as crisis situations they may need to deal with.

Inner child therapy is a tool that is used to help clients get in touch with their own inner self, which has no doubt been damaged by and through the use of drugs and/or alcohol. Group therapy participants can be a part of this highly-effective therapeutic technique to promote healing.

Are you ready to make a positive change in this new year? Contact New Beginnings Recovery Center at 888-840-5189.
