Fast Tracking Recovery Through Rapid Detox Fast Tracking Recovery Through Rapid Detox Once trapped in the vicious cycle of any substance, it becomes very difficult for users to quit drugs due to the severe levels of agony and discomfort caused by intense withdrawal pain. In fact, it is hard to fathom the amount of pain an individual endures during addiction and withdrawal phases. Since persistent abuse of drugs drastically changes the way dopamine receptors function in the brain, drug withdrawals are normally excruciatingly painful. As it is essential to confront the withdrawal pain to achieve sobriety, most patients tend give up the battle midway. They are usually at a loss about the next measure to be undertaken. Depending on the kind of drug one is addicted to, the pangs could start immediately within 6 to 12 hours or even after a day. The withdrawal symptoms could be classified as mild, moderate and severe, depending on the consequences, severity, etc. It is generally seen that the withdrawal symptoms peak after 72 hours, causing nausea, diarrhea, depression, muscle ache, etc. thereby For many who undergo an opioid withdrawal, finding immediate relief from pain, or emerging sober without going through the excruciatingly painful withdrawal is a good option. However, many people are skeptical about such accelerated methods of detoxification, popularly known as rapid or ultra-rapid detox. Developed in 1980s, it remarkably reduces the span of detoxification compared to the traditional detox processes. Among an array of rapid detox processes available for addiction treatment, one of the novel ways known as the Waismann Method is becoming increasingly popular among medical practitioners. Waismann Method ensures safety via careful assessment According to Clare Waismann, cofounder of Waismann Method, patients’ safety is ensured during rapid detoxification. Before detoxification, patients undergo a comprehensive medical examination, including tests related to blood work, kidney, liver, pancreas, thyroid, etc. to www.sovnaturaldetox.com

Importantly, in this method, patients are administered nonopioid medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms. An appropriate understanding of a patient’s medical history and current complications enable medical practitioners to create detox programs according to his or her requirements. The provision of the tailoring of detox programs is extremely beneficial in the case of elderly and medically complex cases. A thorough examination of patients before detoxification will also play a crucial role in plugging the gaps in the treatment. The safety issues arise due to the mushrooming of clinics inadequately staffed or are ill-equipped to deal with the problem. Furthermore, rapid detox is not simply about detoxifying and then letting the patient go home. There is a protocol that attaches importance to the post detox events of patients, such as their need to readjust to a new life. In such cases, therapies and counseling become equally important. Another primary reasons why people consider rapid detox unsafe is due to the involvement of anesthesia in the process. Instead, Waismann clarifies that detoxification is conducted under sedation to avoid the side effects associated with anesthesia. Rapid detox as a humane option The opioid epidemic has taken a toll on the American sociocultural milieu by not only impacting users and their family but also affecting the entire community. According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), around 11.8 million Americans aged 12 or older were misusing opioids in 2015. Many simply do not seek help, as witnessing someone going through an opioid withdrawal can be an unnerving experience. Emphasizing on the need for medical supervision during detoxification, Waismann said, “Providing medical detox in a hospital is just the most humane and effective treatment for opioid withdrawal. Opioid physical dependence is a physiological disorder that is reversible and should be treated by physicians.” The sole objective of rapid detox is to lessen pain through scientific and validated means. Hence, it should not be considered as a miracle. If you or your loved one is struggling with any addiction, seek professional help immediately.
