A FRESH START AT JOURNEY HILLSIDE TARZANA

The recovery journey typically begins with a detox program

Detox is one of the early challenges faced by patients due to a process called withdrawal. Withdrawal causes a variety of unpleasant symptoms when drugs are no longer used that can make patients feel anxious, depressed and restless. This is because prolonged use of drugs or alcohol can cause chemical imbalances that change the way the brain works, affecting concentration, emotional regulation, sleep patterns and more. Over time, your brain begins to rely on drugs or alcohol, which leads to uncomfortable symptoms as your body readjusts to functioning without them.

Journey Hillside Tarzana is equipped with an experienced, compassionate medical staff available around the clock and highly skilled in managing withdrawal symptoms. When traces of drugs or alcohol remain in the body, it’s more difficult to resist cravings and leave old patterns of behavior behind. A comprehensive detox allows patients to start their treatment experience with a clean slate and a clear mind. The tools we use to help patients have a safe, positive experience include:

Tarzana Medical Detox Program

While these symptoms are uncomfortable, for many clients, they can also be dangerous. Certain drugs may cause seizures, hallucinations and delusions, which can be frightening and in some cases, fatal. Withdrawal can also prompt some individuals to seek out drugs and alcohol as a way to ease or avoid symptoms. When a patient relapses, their chances of overdosing are higher due to decreased tolerance. This is why we believe that a professional, medically-supervised detox program is a critical step that keeps patients safe as they prepare for the remainder of their recovery journey.
