What is Alcohol Detoxification?
Alcohol Detoxification is a medically supervised process that helps an individual to safely withdraw himself/herself from alcohol. It is considered to be the preliminary step in the recovery of alcoholism. But it is not necessary that all guests who come to Alpha Healing Center for alcohol rehab will require detox as it depends on the severity of each individual’s situation. Therefore, to decide the kind of treatment that is best suitable to an individual, the efficient team of the center studies each case differently.
What are the symptoms of Alcohol Withdrawal?
Depending upon their own situation, each individual undergoing a detox program will suffer different reactions. The list of symptoms of the process may also include anxiety, insomnia, hallucinations, and impaired mood.
All detoxification programs at Alpha Healing Center are supervised by the expert medical team.

Frequently Asked Questions About Alcohol Detox
The on-site medical staff and clinical team will have one-on-one meeting with the individual, as soon as he/she arrives at Alpha Healing Center. On the basis of this meeting, it will be decided whether or not the guest requires a withdrawal period before commencing with the treatment program.
During the first few days of detox program, an individual experiences a number of both physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms, as the brain and body functions take time to readjust without the presence of alcohol. And, as discussed above, the withdrawal process may observe various symptoms.
‘Stabilization’ is the key component of detoxification, and this term includes all the medical and psychological interactions that take place to support the individual to achieve the state of physical and psychological balance. Therefore, though medication has similar effect to alcohol, it may be prescribed to the person to regulate the symptoms of withdrawal. But it will be tapered off gradually during the program as it is not a long-term medication.
The treatment program of those guests who require a medically supervised alcohol detoxification, includes rehabilitation.
As described earlier, alcohol withdrawal symptoms are different for each individual. Thus, it may take more than a week to detox for some. However, with careful medical supervision and proper medication, an individual can withdraw himself/herself from alcohol in just a couple of days.
For the guests dependent on alcohol, the process of detoxification is an essential step to help aid recovery. And while the body and brain once again learns to function without alcohol, it is very important to keep guests safe from life-threatening symptoms. Also, to avoid the situation of relapse, to continue the treatment after detoxification is quite essential.
However, detoxification is the very first step and what comes after it is incredibly important. For the guests to able to learn recovery tools and coping skills to stay away from alcohol in future, the full alcohol addiction treatment program is of great significance for them. There have been many cases wherein people begin to drink and get addicted due to the underlying issues such as anxiety, depression, low self esteem and abuse among others, also to forget about the problems in life and self-medicate for several disorders, which is not a healthy option to solve the issues. So, to make the guests understand and learn better choices to deal with life and stay away from alcohol, Alpha Healing Center uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), the 12 Steps Program, Mindfulness Meditation and many more ways to teach them to manage life and stress in a manner that does not involve any substance abuse. Detoxification alone is not enough to recover and stay sober.
