Crack detox

When you make the decision to give up crack cocaine and get clean, your body must rid itself of any crack and associated toxins that are still in its system. This is the starting point of any successful attempt to recover.

During crack cocaine detox, you will undergo a medically supervised weaning off the drug. Once your body is free from crack and its related toxins, you will be ready and able to progress with a clear, sober mind.

It can be a lengthy process and, if not done properly, a dangerous and unpleasant one. At Oasis Bradford, our team of highly experienced professionals assess each individual upon their arrival and then implements a proven detox from crack cocaine in a supportive, medically supervised environment.

Crack cocaine detox typically involves three main stages: evaluation, stabilisation and transition to further treatment. Each stage plays a vital role in ensuring a successful recovery.

• Evaluation: Upon admission to Oasis Bradford, our team of professionals will conduct a comprehensive assessment to determine the severity of your condition and any co-occurring medical or mental health conditions. This information will be used to develop a personalised crack cocaine detox plan tailored to your unique needs.
• Stabilisation: During this phase, you will receive medical supervision and support to safely withdraw from crack cocaine. This may involve the use of medications to manage withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings. Our compassionate staff will monitor your progress closely, providing emotional support and encouragement throughout the process.
• Transition to further treatment: Once you have successfully completed the detox process, our team will help you transition to the next phase of your recovery journey; crack cocaine rehab. This includes therapy, support groups and aftercare planning to ensure long-term sobriety.

There are many factors which influence how long it might take you to detox from crack cocaine. These include your physiology, the length and intensity of your crack use and your tolerance level of the drug. All these factors are taken into account when you are admitted to detox at Oasis Bradford and no two crack detox plans are the same.

When you frequently use crack cocaine and stop using it suddenly, your body and mind are thrown into a state of confusion as they attempt to adjust to its absence.

There is a wide range of possible physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms that can be particularly intense.

Some common symptoms are:

• Cravings for crack cocaine
• Issues with memory
• Suicidal thoughts
• Sleep problems
• Lack of pleasure
• Irritability
• Fatigue
• Vivid dreams or nightmares
• Muscle aches and nerve pain
• Dehydration

Withdrawal symptoms vary in nature, duration and intensity, but generally speaking they will be at their worst between three days and two weeks after the last of the crack has left your system. During this time, our trained medical staff will be able to offer professional assistance if necessary to make this process as comfortable as possible.

We believe that residential crack cocaine detox with Oasis Bradford is the best option for a variety of reasons – and not just for the fact that it makes for a safer detox. Withdrawal symptoms are unpleasant, but you are vulnerable to relapse when you are going through the most intense stages of withdrawal. In our crack cocaine detox programme, you are in a temptation-free zone with professional support available to make you as comfortable as possible.

There is a clear focus on both physical health (breakfast, yoga, fresh air) and mental health (therapy, workshops, games nights, etc.). Our programme incorporates mental stability and connection with others going through the same process, alongside the physical detox, so you have the tools to maintain long-term recovery once your system is crack cocaine-free.
