According to the (CDC) Center for Disease Control, 75,000 lives will be lost to alcohol abuse. Alcohol dependency and abuse are the leading cause of preventable death in the U.S. 13,000 will die from Cirrhosis, 39% will die from traffic fatalities. 21,600 will die from the side affects of abuse, alcohol poisoning, cardiomyopathy and pancreatitis. 1/3rd of suicides involve alcohol.

It may be pleasurable to have a glass of fine wine with dinner in moderation. But, what happens when that one glass becomes two or three, a bottle and onto the next. A few drinks on the weekend to relieve some stress and it seems to work.

Then it becomes a habit, a dependency, an addiction. The person who is addicted to alcohol is no longer the same. They are not all there and do not behave as they would normally. Under the influence, the least of which they may say or do stupid or foolish things due to lack of inhibitions-or the worst, while drunk behind the wheel of a car, they mow down an innocent child. Besides their own, how many lives would be forever ruined?

Alcohol is everywhere. It is legal and socially acceptable to a point.  Alcohol abuse is also prevalent.  The person drinks to the point of unconsciousness, or has blackouts, unable to recall the events of the night before, has tremors when they don’t drink, acts irrationally, can’t function socially or productively.  Can’t go a day without going into withdrawals- the list goes on.  That person has a serious problem and needs help. They may be in denial and unable to admit to there own condition. However, denial can be deadly.

Detoxification from heavy alcohol abuse needs to be done under medical supervision as the withdrawal symptoms can be severe and even life threatening.

Coming in to Pur Detox proved to be a life changing experience for me. I came without any real tangible knowledge or expectations. I did know I wanted help. I did know that other attempts at getting and staying sober had failed. I came open minded and I couldn’t have found a more perfect solution. My experience from the beginning totally exceeded any hopes or expectations I could have had. It was clear to me very early that this journey would be not only physical and emotional, but spiritual as well.

My spirit and joy for living is bountiful. I feel more alive and alert and inspired than I have in a very long time. I’ve had so many realizations and insights about how I want to live and enjoy my life again. I feel healthy in every aspect. I feel clean physically. I am mentally sharp. I am focused.

The true journey has only begun for me, but I couldn’t have gotten a better start than right here. Every single staff member has been instrumental in my success here. The sauna speaks for itself, but the warmth, sincerity, genuineness and strength of this program also lies in the hearts and spirits of the staff.  Thank you!

Alcohol Withdrawal

Alcohol affects the nervous system and can result in nerve damage and severe memory loss. Chronic alcohol use also increases the risk of cancer of the larynx, esophagus, liver, and colon. Withdrawal develops because the brain has physically adapted to the presence of alcohol and cannot function adequately in the absence of the drug. Alcohol withdrawal symptoms may include a rapid heart rate, restlessness, anxiety, psychosis, depression, loss of appetite, seizures, an elevated temperature, increased blood pressure, hallucinations and even death. Psychological factors may include a need for relief of anxiety, ongoing depression, unresolved conflict within relationships, or low self-esteem. Social factors include availability of alcohol, social acceptance of the use of alcohol, peer pressure, and stressful lifestyles. Our program offers the most effective alcohol detox in the country.

Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation and receiving further inpatient and/or outpatient help once fully detoxed is a must and is something that the staff of Pür Detox will ensure happens. Our detox centers while not a rehabilitation facility can be an enormous help in preparing you for entry into treatment & rehab.  We can also provide a referral to an excellent rehabilitation facility.

A chemical dependency on alcohol is known as “alcoholism”. Alcoholism refers to a disease known as alcohol dependence syndrome. This is the most severe stage of a group of drinking problems which begins with binge drinking and alcohol abuse. Alcohol problems occur at different levels of severity, from mild and annoying to life-threatening.

Alcohol abuse becomes alcohol dependence when drinkers begin to experience a craving for alcohol, a loss of control of their drinking, withdrawal symptoms when they are not drinking, and an increased tolerance to alcohol so that they have to drink more to achieve the same effect. Alcohol dependence is a chronic and often progressive disease that includes a strong need to drink despite repeated problems.

Alcohol Detox

The objective of alcohol detox is to help the patient achieve an alcohol free state. Detox is intended to relieve the physical symptoms of withdrawal. Detox helps prepare the patient for entry into treatment and rehab. The time necessary for alcohol detox can be anywhere from 3 to 14 days. Alcohol also affects other body systems. Irritation of the gastrointestinal tract can occur with erosion of the lining of the esophagus and stomach causing nausea and vomiting, and possibly bleeding. Vitamins are not absorbed properly, which can lead to nutritional deficiencies with the long-term use of alcohol.

This unique alcohol detox program is designed to help the you achieve an alcohol free state. During the detoxification process our entire program is intended to relieve the physical symptoms of withdrawal. Detox can also help prepare for entry into treatment & rehab. The time necessary for alcohol detox can be anywhere from 3 to 14 days.
