We provide comfort medications to ease the symptoms of acute withdrawal, as well as offer a “Treat and Taper” program where we slowly wean our clients off of the controlled substance that is keeping them from experiencing some common adverse effects of withdrawal such as seizures, delirium tremens, and others.
We offer 24/7 nursing care with a staff that is just as inclined to sit and talk you through a difficult time as they are to treat your symptoms with medication. They are passionate about recovery – many of them in recovery themselves – and it shows in the way our clients are treated. We also offer a number of alternative modalities, including a Float Spa, Vibroacoustic Lounge, Oxygen Bar, Amino Acid Therapy, Sound Baths, and many others. It’s hospital-level care in a spa-like environment.
Ardu Recovery Center specializes in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction, including:
The first and most important step in any addiction treatment program is the medical detox. Medical detox is one assisted by doctors, nurses, and a full medical staff to supply necessary medications and treatments. If you are suffering from addiction, getting help from a facility like Ardu Recovery Center gives you the best chance for a successful and comfortable detox experience.
Despite the best of intentions, there are still people who will fail to recover fully after entering treatment. Trouble often comes from the “downtime” experienced between leaving detox and entering rehab. Ardu Recovery Center’s medical detox center is combined with our residential treatment facility to ensure a simple treatment journey with a lessened chance of relapse.
Common withdrawal symptoms including nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea can lead to severe dehydration that could require emergency services. When detoxing from alcohol, seizures, hallucinations and delirium tremens can quickly turn deadly without appropriate medical attention. Additionally, depression, suicidal thoughts or behavior can occur during the detox phase.
While some substances can be detoxed from without additional medical treatment, alcohol and benzo withdrawal can be life-threatening without the use of medication-assisted treatment. Additionally, the often mild symptoms of nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea associated with opiate withdrawal can turn to severe dehydration, making medically assisted treatment a safer, more comfortable option.
Detoxing from substances that your body has come to rely on can be emotionally and physically painful. The brain is initially unable to reproduce the endorphins needed to ease that pain as it’s become accustomed to drugs and alcohol artificially providing them. By choosing Ardu’s medical detox program, the unpleasant emotional and physical symptoms can be managed by highly qualified medical personnel, supplemented with medication when appropriate.
Medical detox is appropriate if you experience physical withdrawal symptoms when attempting to stop drugs or alcohol, if drugs or alcohol are affecting your job, relationships or emotional state, or if you’ve been unsuccessful in your prior attempts at detox and recovery.
Medical detox typically takes between 5-7 days but can vary depending on the substance and individual patient’s needs.
