One of the most daunting aspects of seeking addiction treatment is often the withdrawal and detox phase. At Changes Rehab in Johannesburg, we understand these fears and are dedicated to ensuring you are well cared for during this critical first step. Detoxification is necessary for recovery, and we are committed to making this process as comfortable and safe as possible.

Changes Addiction Rehab in Johannesburg is renowned for its comprehensive and effective detoxification (detox) process, a critical first step in the journey to recovery from substance abuse. Established in 2007, Changes Rehab has been at the forefront of addiction treatment in South Africa, offering a holistic and medically supervised detox programme that ensures the safety and comfort of its clients.

The detox process at Changes Rehab is designed to manage and alleviate the physical symptoms of withdrawal from drugs and alcohol. This phase is crucial as it prepares the body and mind for the subsequent stages of treatment. Our approach to detoxification is both scientific and compassionate, acknowledging the challenges faced by individuals as they begin to break free from addiction.

Upon arrival at Changes Rehab, each client undergoes a thorough medical assessment conducted by our experienced medical team. This assessment includes an evaluation of the individual’s physical and mental health, substance use history, and any co-occurring mental health conditions. More than 50% of our clients have underlying mental health issues that need to be addressed concurrently with their addiction treatment.

During the detox phase, clients receive round-the-clock care from our multidisciplinary team, which includes a specialised addiction psychiatrist, medical doctors, psychologists, nurses, and addiction counsellors. This team is dedicated to managing withdrawal symptoms and providing emotional support. Medications may be administered to ease withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings, ensuring the detox process is as comfortable as possible.

Our detox facility is equipped with state-of-the-art medical equipment and comfortable accommodations, creating a safe and serene environment for clients. We understand that detoxification can be a physically and emotionally taxing experience, and our team is committed to providing a supportive and nurturing atmosphere. Clients are monitored continuously to ensure their safety and to manage any complications that may arise during withdrawal.

In addition to medical care, our detox programme incorporates therapeutic interventions to address the psychological aspects of addiction. Individual therapy sessions with our skilled psychologists help clients process their emotions and develop coping strategies. Group therapy sessions provide a sense of community and shared experience, fostering mutual support among clients.

Changes Rehab also recognises the importance of family involvement in the recovery process. Our family support programme offers counselling and education to help families understand addiction and provide the necessary support to their loved ones. Addiction affects the entire family, and healing must involve everyone.

Our detox process is not just about managing withdrawal symptoms; it is the foundation upon which we build a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to each client’s needs. Following detox, clients transition to our residential treatment programmes, where they continue their recovery journey with ongoing therapy, education, and support.
