Detoxification Center

Renaissance Malibu Detoxification Center

A detoxification center employs a procedure whereby individuals are systematically withdrawn from alcohol or drugs under the care of a physician. A detoxification program is considered a precursor of treatment, designed to treat the acute physiological effects of stopping drug use. In some cases, a detoxification program may be a medical necessity, and untreated withdrawal may be physically dangerous or even fatal. Renaissance Malibu's detoxification center provides gentle, physician monitored detoxification programs for cocaine, crack, heroin, methamphetamines, benzodiazepines, alcohol, barbiturates, and other sedatives.

Treatment at a detoxification center is only the first step in addressing alcohol and drug addiction. It is not designed to address the psychological, social, and behavioral problems associated with addiction, and so treatment in a detoxification center will not typically produce lasting behavioral changes necessary for recovery. A truly effective detoxification center, like Renaissance Malibu's, is most useful when it incorporates formal processes of assessment and participation in concurrent addiction treatment therapies.

Complete Treatment for Total Recovery

Without the medical expertise of the physicians in a first-class detoxification center, drug and alcohol cravings continue and recovery can be very difficult to achieve. At Renaissance Malibu, our detoxification center tailors its procedures to each individual client, taking into account his or her abuse history, making the withdrawal and purification experience as efficacious and comfortable as possible. Symptoms of withdrawal during an alcohol or drug detoxification program can include sweating, hand tremors, nausea, insomnia, rapid pulse, agitation and anxiety. Detoxing without the supervision of a licensed detoxification center's medical supervision can be difficult and, potentially, dangerous.

Detox, Rehab and Relapse Prevention Programs

The State of California Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs licenses Renaissance Malibu and its detoxification center. All treatment procedures are strictly supervised by our drug and alcohol detoxification center physician and staff, during and after. They include:
  • 24-hour alcohol detox facilitation
  • Daily educational opportunities
  • One-on-one counseling
  • Co-dependency groups
  • Topical workshops and many other innovative therapy treatments
The therapy provided by our drug and alcohol detoxification center works hand-in-hand with the other rehabilitation strategies and programs offered by Renaissance Malibu (Programs). In this way, the physical benefits of the detoxification programs are fully realized.

For instance, once a detoxification program has commenced, the individual can see his or her life more clearly, and patterns of drug or alcohol abuse emerge. Relapse prevention therapy involves identifying and anticipating the problems clients are likely to meet through every day living and helping them develop effective coping and avoidance strategies. The skills individuals learn through relapse prevention therapy remain after the completion of treatment and build a solid foundation for a lifetime of recovery.

All of these treatment activities take place in the confidential, luxurious and supportive surroundings of what is generally considered to be one of the world's "most exclusive" drug and alcohol treatment and detoxification center.
