Detox

When seeking treatment, the first step towards recovery is detoxing addictive substances from the body. At The Grove Recovery Community, the detox stage uses a substitution tapering technique that has been developed over decades. Substitution tapering helps to alleviate severe withdrawal symptoms by slowly decreasing the amount of a substance taken over time by replacing it with a similar, more controllable medication. This substitution medication has a lower potential for addiction than the original substance. Medications, such as Suboxone, Naltrexone, and Buprenorphine, can be lifesaving in extreme situations.

During this tapering detox process, there is an emphasis on symptom guided treatment. This means that a patient’s symptoms are watched closely by medical professionals. In monitoring withdrawal symptoms, medical professionals can assess patient’s conditions and determine what treatment will be needed going forward. The aspects of detox at The Grove Recovery Community lessen uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms and promote long term recovery by establishing abstinence early on in the treatment process. When used for maintaining sobriety, The Grove Recovery Community recommends their patients take daily doses of substitution medication for 12 months. Additionally, outpatient detox is offered.
