We aim to provide first-class care and many of our former clients are relieved to be able to spend their time recovering away from home, in a new and non-toxic environment. Of course if you are less inclined, we can also discuss outpatient treatment options, where you stay at home and visit a rehab centre daily.

After residential rehab, relapse prevention is key and only residential centres provide a relapse prevention plan to help you through your first year of sobriety. This plan ensures your recovery and substance free life.

Alcohol Detoxification: A Timeline

Addiction Advocates employ addiction experts who are here to deliver your rehabilitation programme. Our patients begin drug and alcohol rehab with detoxification. Detox aims to rid the client of toxins caused by a sustained period of substance abuse.

During this period, many patients are allowed controlled access to prescription medications to reduce the often unpleasant withdrawal symptoms that go hand in hand with drug or alcohol detoxification.

Within the first 6 hours a person may begin to experience mild uncomfortable symptoms, and depending on the servity of the alcohol addiction, a person may experience seizures. When you progress to the 48 hour mark of no alcohol, you may experience further withdrawals such as heachache, tremors, and intense stomach problems.

Once you have been alcohol free for more than 48 hours, Delerium Tremens can be a detrimental side effect of severe alcohol abuse. DT can cause increased heart rate which can increase the likelihood of a sezuire, which is why we always recommend a detox happen within a secure and monitored environment like drug and alcohol rehab Southport.

Withdrawal symptoms can differ from person to person so its important you get the right help and bespoke addiction treatment at our alcohol rehab.
