Drug alcohol abuse is a phrase often used together because drug alcohol abuse is of the same disease. Drug alcohol abuse is a precursor to drug addiction and alcoholism. If you are involved with drug alcohol abuse you may identify with preferring a particular drug. Many drug alcohol abuse users may consider alcohol their substance of choice but do abuse drugs as well. As drug alcohol abuse progresses, as it always does for the alcoholic and drug addict, many people try to control their alcohol and drug use by switching substances without understanding the resulting effect is the same. Drug alcohol abuse progresses into a disease of the mind and body that must be treated by professionals equipped to deal with this disease.

Spencer Recovery Centers is a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility that has successfully worked with drug alcohol abuse candidates for over 12 years. Our success is in large part to a dedicated staff of licensed professionals including a full time physician and psychologist. From the initial assessment to the discharge plan, they supervise the progression of recovery of the body and the mind.

Treating the body for drug alcohol abuse is a straightforward clinical treatment that depends on the type and amounts of drugs and alcohol being consumed. For some individuals detox can be a period of physical discomfort as withdrawal symptoms are managed as the body purifies itself. Spencer aims to make this process as comfortable as possible for our clients and depending on the severity of symptoms, everything from hospitalization, to prescriptions to vitamins can be arranged to make this process as pain free as possible. Once the physical symptoms of our clients are stabilized, the therapeutic treatment plan can begin to address the causes and behaviors associated with drug alcohol abuse.

The goal of group and individual therapy is to identify behaviors and actions that have lead to drug alcohol abuse and the events that signify relapse. Once in Spencer Recovery Centers, abstinence is assured and the safe environment allows clients to put together weeks of abstinence. The goal is to instill in our clients an effective relapse prevention plan that will work way beyond discharge and promote long term abstinence. Revealing and examining triggers can sustain proper motivation until a strong foundation can take hold in the recovery community outside the facility. Most recovered alcoholics and addicts find that their best bet for long-term sobriety and clean time is found in the supportive rooms of a 12-step program and Spencer Recovery Centers allows our clients to explore the different 12-step programs available to them.

The power of addiction is real and should not be dealt with alone. Like all diseases, treatment is necessary to recover. Spencer Recovery Center offers a treatment that will work for you.
