At Pine Tree Recovery Center we offer men and women of all ages with the most effective medical alcohol detox program available throughout the state of Maine. When it comes to the symptoms associated with alcohol withdrawal, entering into a medically monitored detox facility is of the utmost importance. When not constantly overseen by a team of experienced medical professionals, associated symptoms can be extremely dangerous – even life-threatening in severe cases. At Pine Tree Recovery Center we believe in treating alcoholism comprehensively. For this reason, we focus on much more than physical stabilization and a safe and pain-free withdrawal experience. We utilize a combination of proven clinical techniques while offering each and every one of our clients a thorough introduction to intensive therapeutic care and the 12-step method of addiction recovery. This prepares them for the road ahead while tackling the physical, mental and emotional implications of active alcohol addiction. If you or someone you love has been suffering from an alcohol abuse disorder of any severity, feel free to reach out to us at any point in time. Our treatment advisors are available 24 hours a day to answer any questions you may have.

What to Expect from Alcohol Detox

While the main priority of our alcohol detox program is to provide men and women with a safe and pain-free withdrawal experience in a comfortable and medically monitored setting, we also believe in addressing all underlying issues that contributed to the development of the substance abuse disorder in the first place. The more severe symptoms associated with alcohol withdrawal are typically best treated with a combination of Medication Assisted Treatment and therapeutic care. Upon admission to our treatment program, we carefully evaluate each individual client, developing a detox program that best fits all of his or her unique and personal needs. Clients are able to relax in their private bedrooms or participate in the wide range of recovery related services we provide on a daily basis. A few services include individual and group therapy sessions, 12-step program introduction, relapse prevention training and much, much more.

How to Make the Most of Alcohol Detox

It is important to understand that alcohol detox is only the very first step on every long-term road to recovery. Upon admission to our program, each client is assigned a case manager who will help them develop a personalized treatment plan and ultimately transition into the next appropriate level of clinical care. In order to make the very most of your alcohol detox experience, we suggest being open to immediately transferring into inpatient treatment, intensive outpatient treatment or outpatient treatment. Pine Tree Recovery Center offers an intensive outpatient program that is ideal for men and women who have been suffering at the hands of alcohol abuse but do not necessarily need a higher level of clinical care.
