Opioid + Opiate Addiction Treatment
Opioid addiction treatment facilities like Mount Rogers Community Services Board - Smyth Counseling Center support people struggling with opioid dependency, which covers illegal and prescription opioids.

Behavioral therapies and counseling are also necessary to resolve the root cause of addiction. This overall approach decreases the likelihood of falling off the wagon.

Detox is the stage of recovery where the drugs or alcohol are fully removed from your body.

If additional substances are not obtained you begin to go through withdrawal. Your body begins to reset chemical pathways and other metabolic processes begin which can be extremely uncomfortable.
There are two different ways to detox, with medications and without. Depending on your level of addiction and what you are using, you may need medical supervision. For many drugs and alcohol, the acute phase of detox can be completed in a number of days.
