3 Benefits of Detox in a Medical Setting

❖ There’s a stigma associated with detox for women in a medical setting because the

misconception is that only the “crazies” go to an institution to address their

problems.

❖ The operative word here should be “clinical.” That means no judgment when you

walk into the rehab facility’s doors since everybody’s main concern is to help you

get better.

1. It’s Easier on the Body

❖ This is the best detox for women whose willpower alone is

not enough to stop drinking alcohol or taking drugs “cold

turkey.”

❖ Although willpower here is being used loosely because

oftentimes, you can’t predict how your body will react to a

foreign chemical being introduced into your system for

prolonged periods of time.

What are the advantages of a medically assisted detox?

❖ Under this treatment process, the doctor will use

substitute drugs to help your body get rid of the

toxins without shocking your system.

❖ There are many drugs available depending on

the severity of your problem.

2. It’s Very Safe

❖ In a controlled setting, your reaction to the treatment is

constantly being monitored.

❖ It can’t be avoided sometimes that people’s bodies may

react violently from the withdrawal, so this could be

rectified immediately without endangering the patient.

❖ People who don’t know what addicts go through always look down on their lack of ability to

stop the urges.

❖ The common misconception is that they can just switch the cravings on and off.

❖ That’s not true at all. While the need to get high is the main reason why they do drugs, it’s

the fear of the withdrawal that makes them come back again and again.

3. Cut Down the Urges

❖ It has been proven time and again that detox for women

in a medical setting will drastically reduce the risk of

relapsing.

❖ Unlike going cold turkey, the urges and cravings are

minimized to an extent that you don’t lose control.

❖ It’s unrealistic to think that there will be no more urges,

of course.

❖ As an added benefit, this type of treatment cuts the risk

of the patient relapsing somewhere down the road.

❖ As can be gleaned, this type of detox for women comes with a risk: and that is the patient

will get hooked on the substitute drugs instead.

❖ That’s the reason why individuals are being closely monitored.

❖ Ideally, the patient should be totally off the substitute drugs about one month since the

detox started.

❖ By that time, she should already have graduated to counseling and other therapeutic

sessions on her way to recovery.
