Detox Center

Detoxification or simply a detox, is the process of getting rid of harmful substances (like alcohol or drugs) from the organism. Detoxification treatment is an integral part of the recovery process for individuals struggling with substance abuse. We will explore the importance of detox, its different methods, potential side effects, and the crucial role it plays in preparing individuals for further addiction treatment and achieving lasting sobriety.

What is Detox?

Drug and alcohol detox or detoxification, is aimed to remove toxic substances from the body. During detox, the body undergoes a natural cleansing process, ridding itself of the harmful substances accumulated from prolonged substance abuse.

The detoxification process involves safely managing withdrawal symptoms as the body adjusts to the absence of drugs or alcohol. Medical professionals closely monitor patients throughout the detoxification process, providing necessary support to manage withdrawal symptoms and ensure a safe and comfortable experience. Detox serves as a foundational stage in the recovery journey, preparing individuals for further addiction treatment and increasing the likelihood of successful, long-term sobriety.

Treatment Programs

Inpatient Treatment

“Inpatient” then means that the patient needs to be admitted to an addiction treatment center for therapy and detox, typically because he/she needs to be closely monitored.

Intensive Outpatient Program

Intensive outpatient programs (IOPs) are treatment programs used to address addictions, depression, eating disorders, or other dependencies that do not require detoxification or round-the-clock supervision.

Medication Assisted Treatment

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is the use of medications in combination with counseling and behavioral therapies, which is effective in the treatment of opioid use disorders (OUD) and can help some people to sustain recovery.

Outpatient Addiction Treatment

Outpatient rehab is a form of alcohol or drug rehabilitation that allows patients to live at home (or in another safe and therapeutic environment, such as sober living)

Partial Hospitalization Program

Partial hospitalization provides a structured program of outpatient psychiatric services as an alternative to inpatient psychiatric care.

I am extremely grateful that I gave Nova Vitae another call in hopes of trying to get and remain sober! This place is the best and is such a powerful rehab for both drugs and alcohol! If you’re trying to beat alcoholism or addiction - or both - I would absolutely recommend Nova Vitae!

I’ve been to quite a few different rehabs that say “they caee and will help you out” but then people get treated like garbage and leave because they weren’t being taught anything useful. Nova Vitae on the other hand knows everything that you’ll ever need to know in helping you get off drugs and alcohol and they’ll even check in on you to see how you’ve been doing! Even if you left 2 years ago!

I would really like to say thank you to Alex and Allen for giving me another chance at their program and I will forever love them for taking me back and for giving me another chance in sobriety!

very clean place, great groups and therapy, Allen and Alex made my detox way more comfortable. I have been to over a dozen rehabs and not only did I feel the love and care these guys went out of their way and adjusted my treatment plan to something that works for me. Thanks guys!

Nova Vitae has truly been a life-changing experience for me. The staff provides outstanding support and consistently goes above and beyond to help, no matter what you need. No task is too big for them, and they are committed to ensuring you receive the best recovery possible.

At the same time, they encourage accountability and personal growth. Nothing is simply handed to you—good things are earned—and they gave me, along with many others, the opportunity to take initiative and choose to better our lives.

If you’re seeking help with any form of recovery, this is the place to do it.

Nova Vitae saved my life. I have been clean and sober for five months. I took part in inpatient detox at one of their beautiful homes. I continue to participate in outpatient treatment and never, ever have I had a more wonderful experience (above all the others I have tried). Allen and Anna are Godsends to me and others trapped in the beast of addiction. Every Nova staff member I have encountered at Nova has been excellent and they deeply care about their patients’ recovery. They have provided endless support, resources, guidance, and love to get me to where I am today. I am strong and confident in sobriety, which I never thought was possible for me. If you’re ready to get sober, this is the place - Nova VitaeI Pick up that heavy phone and make the call; they will be there for you all the way! From a grateful sober woman and Nova patient, Debbie H.

This center is one of the most amazing I’ve been to, ( and yes I’ve been to MANY) the program director Allen is so easy to get along with and even easier to trust, which is something that is very difficult for me. They stuck by me even when I tried to pull away and fight back and they believed in me when I couldn’t believe in myself. I would recommend this center over any other center I’ve been too- and that’s a big deal because I DONT write reviews but I felt like this place deserved to be recognized.

I’ve been in and out of rehab from the age of 16 I was a heroin addict. I thought nothing could help me and no one could save me from this addiction. I was at a point where I just wanted to end my life. On my 22nd birthday I woke up dope sick and just needed some suboxene to get well my mom looked up suboxene clinics and randomly found Nova Vitae it was a weekend nothing else was open. They had me come right in. Checked me out and I met Allen and Anna the owners here. Allen talked to me and everything he said was relatable and for once I felt like I had hope just talking with him, how he was just like me and figured out a way to get sober. They gave me suboxene and told me to come in the following Monday for more but his words and talking with Anna made me realize I wanted to change I told them I’m not gonna make it till Monday I’m gonna use again and the cycle will keep going. They said we have an inpatient and I was reluctant at first but new that I was ready to get sober and over feeling sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. So they took me right to there inpatient. Without even calling my insurance and they didn’t even get a hold of them for a week but Ana and Allen just care about the patients it’s not about money with them like other places. They scholarshipped me for this place. And it was the first place since I was 16 that I’ve stayed the longest in, that I’ve gotten so much out of this program. I’m still sober today and owe it all to them and this place. Nova Vitae means New Life and that’s what I got out of this program was a new life. Right when I was about to give up I randomly found this treatment place and god had a plan for me and it saved my life. I wish I could send all my friends here and people that are still in addiction because I’ve been to probably every rehab in California and even multiple out of state and nothing worked but Nova Vitae!!!! Thank you so much!!!

My brother was struggling with opioid addiction. Our family is forever grateful to Nova Vitae. They helped to literally turned his life around. He’s now over a year completely sober and volunteering to help others suffering from addiction. I highly recommend that if you have a loved one who’s going through this you take immediate action.
