What We Treat

 

At Navis Health, we treat alcohol and a variety of drugs in a safe and medically supported manner. We believe in treating the whole person, so we will address co-occurring mental health disorders and trauma in addition to the addiction. Our detox programs are especially tailored for adults and their families to help everyone get to a healthier place.


Medical Detox

Our highly trained team are experts in implementing appropriate medical protocols for a variety of substances as well as alcohol. After a proper medical assessment upon admission, we will tailor a treatment program to your specific needs and ensure that you have as comfortable a detox as possible.


Residential Care 

Residential addiction treatment is the initial step-down from medical detox. While detox focuses on the body’s physical dependence on drugs or alcohol, our residential treatment program goes one step further. Our inpatient program is designed to look at addiction as a problem with many parts and find solutions for each of them so that long-term sobriety can be achieved.


We offer treatment for people who struggle with addiction to substances such as:

  • Alcohol
  • Cocaine
  • Meth
  • Benzodiazepines
  • Opioids
  • Fentanyl
  • Marijuana
  • Other Prescription Drugs

 

Managing Acute Withdrawal Symptoms with Medical Detox

Prolonged abuse of alcohol and drugs leads to significant changes in your mind and body. Your brain adapts to the presence of these substances and compensates by altering the delicate balance of neurotransmitters – your brain’s internal messaging system – related to pleasure, pain, reward, and mood. 


At the same time, your internal organs work overtime to process the toxic chemicals and your musculoskeletal system responds to the changes in your brain chemistry, sending your entire system out of balance. Over time your body creates a new normal, dominated by the presence of your drug of choice. 


When you detox and remove the substance from your system, you enter a state of physical and psychological withdrawal. Depending on how much and how long you’ve been using, the acute stages of withdrawal can last anywhere from three to ten days. Symptoms of withdrawal from alcohol and other drugs of use can include:

  • Hallucinations
  • Seizures
  • Delirium Tremens (alcohol only)
  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Insomnia
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Confusion
  • Disorientation
  • Panic Attacks
  • Muscle Aches
  • Bone/Joint Pain


Managing these symptoms is a crucial first step in recovery. Without professional treatment most people have difficulty handling the uncomfortable physical and emotional aspects of withdrawal, which leads to high rates of relapse. In some extreme cases, people trying to detox without adequate medical supervision end up in the emergency room with life-threatening medical conditions.
