Tramadol Detox

As with any prescription drug, if you need to take tramadol for a long time your body can build up a tolerance to it. If you want to stop taking tramadol, it’s important that you seek professional advice. You may benefit from a clinically assisted medical detox at a residential rehab clinic, such as Delamere, where a team of trained medical staff will support you.

Tailored tramadol detox at Delamere

Unlike many other tramadol detox centres in the UK, Delamere provides guests with a completely tailored detox process. We take a person-centred approach to addiction and recovery meaning we steer clear of outdated one-size-fits-all methods and ensure each guest is getting the individual care they need to strive and grow beyond addiction. To make this possible every guest receives a medical assessment upon arrival at which time our medical team, comprising doctors and nurses, crafts a tailored tramadol detox programme for them to follow.

For maximum comfort and safety of our guests, we have a 24-hour on-site nursing team who administer medications at regular intervals and are able to react to uncomfortable symptoms day or night. We find this to be of overwhelming comfort to our guests and their families, especially those who have hesitations about their detox from tramadol.

The benefits of an inpatient tramadol detox centre

If you choose to detox from tramadol at home it is vital that you consult a medical professional beforehand. In instances of tramadol addiction that have led to dependency, going ‘cold turkey’ can have serious medical consequences and can be extremely dangerous. The body will likely struggle to cope without the tramadol it has become accustomed to, leading to uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms and potentially harmful medical consequences. We often find that those who attempt to detox without medical intervention and support are overwhelmed by their cravings and withdrawal symptoms which results in relapse.

However, this does not have to be the case. At Delamere, we will support you through tramadol detox in a safe environment away from the stresses of daily life. Our 24-hour on-site nurses are on hand to monitor your withdrawal ensuring it is safe and you are as comfortable as possible with a flexible course of approved medications. This controlled and nurturing setting improves the likelihood of a successful tramadol detox and reduces the likelihood of relapse.

‘Stop’ lays the foundations for the following stages of our rehab programme. Once you have completed your detox, staying stopped and future-proofing your abstinence is the next step. Everything we offer at Delamere aims at effective and lasting outcomes in addiction treatment:

  • Delamere Treatment Model - Stop Icon
    Stage 1: Stop

    This phase addresses any physical aspects of your addiction. Our medical team is on hand 24/7 to ensure a safe and effective withdrawal.

  • Delamere Treatment Model - Start Icon
    Stage 2: Start

    During ‘Start’ we help identify the psychological underpinnings of your dependency as you participate in a variety of addiction treatment therapies.

  • Delamere Treatment Model - Grow
    Stage 3: Grow

    Our ‘Grow’ phase is the process of integrating the Delamere learning experience into life after treatment.

  • Delamere Treatment Model - Bloom Icon
    Stage 4: Bloom

    Our ‘Bloom’ phase offers intensive support on a weekly basis for the first three months of recovery once guests return home.

How to encourage a loved one to go to rehab

If you are looking to help a family member, work colleague, or loved one, admit themselves to an addiction rehabilitation centre, we’re here to help. It may be that the person in question is in denial about the extent of their problem, possibly even refusing to acknowledge that there’s a problem – and resisting professional help. At Delamere, we provide family support services and help your loved one confront addiction and denial.

Should it be necessary, we also offer intervention services whereby we take the time to understand what is happening and help prepare and rehearse a formal intervention that will culminate in your loved one entering treatment with us. If you are considering organising an intervention for your loved one, friend, or colleague, contact Delamere today.
