About Saddleback Recovery

Saddleback Recovery in Escondido, California offers drug and alcohol detox in Orange County. They are accredited by CARF and are certified by DHCS of California.

The center offers medication assisted detoxification. You will stay in detox treatment until you are stabilized emotionally and physically.

 

Medication Assisted Detox for Opioid or Alcohol Addiction

Drug and alcohol detox is a short term residency program while stabilization is acquired. Drug detox uses medications like methadone, buprenorphine or naltrexone, potentially alongside benzodiazepines and clonidine to reduce withdrawal symptoms while your body rids itself of substances.

Alcohol detox uses various medications based on your symptoms. Benzodiazepines manage anxiety, tremors, and seizures. Antipsychotics manage hallucinations and tremens. Antidepressants manage depression and anxiety. Naltrexone and acamprosate reduce cravings and relapses.

 

Music Therapy with a Partnering Facility

The center partners with Rock to Recovery for music therapy. The founder of Rock to Recovery, Wesley Geer, is quoted as saying, “Being totally sober and dealing with the bottom I had hit – strumming the guitar was the only thing that would bring me peace.”

As a previous touring guitarist for Korn, Geer found himself addicted to substances which led to treatment in a rehab. Now he writes rock songs that are spiritual, physical, emotional, and intellectual for addicts who have found themselves on the edge of destruction.

 

Pairing Mindfulness with Traditional Therapy

Mindfulness is a form of therapy that will teach you how to respond to stressors and triggers in a positive way. We develop anxiety, anger, resentment, and discouragement by the way others sometimes treat us. This therapy will allow you to deal with each moment individually without the doubt and fear substance users face.
