Initial phases of addiction recovery programs sometimes are delayed while a person seeking treatment undergoes a process known as detoxification. The body has to get rid of the substance before anything further can be done.
Body detoxification is not a pleasant experience. However, it is something that must be done before one is even ready to enter a treatment program. Some people enter a medical or other treatment facility, where “conventional” medical procedures are used to assist in the detox phase. Others may prefer to use alternative procedures which are, of course, safe and may be just as effective more common ones.
Alternative treatments can be conducted in different ways. For instance, a person may use herbs as well as making dietary adjustments in order to cleanse the body. In addition, they may employ methods that cause the body to increase its production of sweat.
The combination of the internal cleansing and the sweating allow the toxins to leave the internal organs and move into the bloodstream and digestive system. At that time, other methods are employed which hasten the complete removal of the toxins from the entire body.
These methods can be administered by a practitioner of alternative medicine. If that is not an option, whether due to lack of such facilities or personnel, or due to a lack of funds, there are actually detoxification kits which one can purchase and use at home.
Those who operate Iowa drug abuse help programs realize that detoxification is as much a part of the recovery process as anything else. For that reason, they understand when a person has delayed actually entering a facility until such time as body detoxification has already occurred.
