Marijuana Detox Treatment
Many people are fooled by the popular myth that marijuana is not physically addictive. However, the truth is that marijuana addiction is a serious problem in the United States and one characterized by mental, emotional and physical addiction. These characteristics classify the problem as a medical disease, which means that it requires medical treatment starting with marijuana detox.
At The Canyon, we offer marijuana detox treatment to those who come in for our marijuana rehab.
What Happens During Marijuana Detox Treatment
During marijuana detox treatment, the idea is to help you transition from regular marijuana use to complete abstinence with as little shock to the system as possible. This means lots of rest, medical checkups, organic and nutritious food and drink, and gentle exercise if you are able. Therapies and groups are available but most detox centers want to make sure that you are physically stable before beginning an mentally and emotionally rigorous treatment plan.
Marijuana Detox Treatment: A Necessary First Step in Recovery
Though it is medically necessary to make sure that you are physically able to move forward in marijuana rehab by first undergoing a period in marijuana detox, the detox itself is the be all, end all of treatment. On the contrary, it is just the first step before you begin a personalized treatment plan made up of support group meetings made up of peers who are also beginning their lives in abstinence, one on one therapy sessions, and a mixture of conventional therapies and alternative therapies that include everything from art therapy to ropes and adventure therapy. As you progress through treatment, you and your substance abuse treatment team can change or continue different therapies as you learn what works best for you.
Another important aspect of marijuana addiction treatment following marijuana detox is relapse prevention. This continues long after you leave our facility and head back home with aftercare services that are unparalleled. We also have sober living available if you prefer so that you can continue to rest and recuperate, enjoying the scenic nature of our estate in the Santa Monica Mountains with a far less rigorous treatment plan as you prepare to transition back home.
How To Begin Marijuana Detox Treatment
Because the myth that marijuana is neither harmful nor addictive pervades so deeply in our culture, there are few facilities that provide specialized treatment for marijuana addiction. Locating a facility that employs a staff who are familiar with the medical, psychological and mental aspects of marijuana addiction specifically can be difficult. The Canyon is one of those places.
