Acute withdrawals are the main reason why such patients are unable to stop using drugs, which leads to opiate dependence and addiction.
Our board certified medical doctors have perfected the rapid drug opiate detoxification protocols to make it the most humane, safe, effective, successful, confidential, and affordable for the treatment of the opioid withdrawal syndrome. With today's use of Fentanyl, it is very difficult to transition to Suboxone as patients go through precipitated withdrawals, even after stopping Fentanyl for 5 days. With our sedation treatment these Fentanyl withdrawals pass during sedation and the opiate receptors will be blocked with Naltrexone, preferably the implant, for relapse prevention. Our board certified Anesthesiologist and Addictionologist have been performing this rapid detox treatment since 2008. Combined, they have more than 30 years of experience. Our facility is an intensive outpatient treatment ICU like center, that is licensed by the state of Michigan. We are next to Henry Ford Wyandotte Hospital. Get your life back.

Increase Treatment Access; Address Withdrawal Immediately: Outpatient Detox makes addiction treatment accessible 7 days/week to every individual – homemakers, single parents, business people, professionals (cops, teachers, nurses, lawyers) & students - usually within an hour of making the call.
Enhanced Treatment Effectiveness - Integrate Home Environment: CNT's innovative addiction treatment model is highly effective as it integrates the patients' real-life environment into treatment. Until recently, inpatient detoxification was the standard for treating addiction, but it often led to less than optimal results because treatment was isolated from real life. This led to difficulties in applying relapse prevention techniques once treatment ended and caused frequent relapses and a repetitive cycle of seeking treatment. CNT's innovative Outpatient Detox approach allows individuals to receive high-quality care while remaining in their everyday environments, making it easier to incorporate relapse prevention skills and coping mechanisms into their daily lives. CNT’s approach has been proven to deliver superior outcomes compared to inpatient treatment. Our research indicates significantly higher abstinence rates for individuals who undergo Ambulatory, or Outpatient Detoxification, with a notable increase in 90+ day sobriety rates. Outpatient detox also helps lower stigma associated with addiction as it treats like other chronic diseases such as diabetes.

Addiction Treatment Centers
What is the best therapy for addiction?
Addiction treatment will be tailored to the individual. People seeking help for addiction—whether with a psychotherapist, in an outpatient clinic, or in a residential program—should expect to engage in multiple types of treatments, sometimes including medication. For anyone recovering from addiction, avoiding situations in which one has typically used a substance is essential, as is the support of close connections. Since substance use disorders tend to co-occur with underlying mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression, those must also be addressed as part of any recovery plan.
How long does therapy for addiction take?
There is no set timeline for recovery from addiction. Patients and their families should expect the work to last several months, if not longer. Residential treatment programs may be based on a stay of 30, 60, or 90 days, with continuing work after release, but only about 1 percent of people are treated in such facilities. Ceasing use is just the first step; therapy to help maintain abstinence and effect behavior change must follow. The process of recovery, neuroscience has shown, involves brain cells recovering the capacity to respond to natural sources of reward and restore control over the impulse to use. Another definition of recovery is restoring voluntary control over one’s substance use and retaking all of one’s previous responsibilities.
How effective is drug addiction treatment?
Substance use disorders are treatable and remission is achievable for many who seek recovery; by some estimates, more than three-quarters of people who become addicted to alcohol or drugs recover. But that success rarely occurs quickly or on a set timeline; relapse is not only common, but many therapists and clinicians view it as a normal part of the process—not always a sign that a person has returned to addiction, but a signal that their treatment should be adjusted to help them regain control. Overall, research suggests, five years after the end of substance use, one’s risk of relapse is no greater than that of others who had not faced addiction. Other experts believe that complete abstinence is not the only measure of recovery, and that, through effective treatment, many people can learn to control their use.
How can you get addiction treatment for someone?
The most important factor in recovery from addiction is widely understood to be an individual’s commitment to change. For that reason,“interventions” in which friends and family gather to urge or force someone to begin immediate treatment often backfire; even when such efforts do lead someone to begin treatment, they may be less likely to stay than those who are self-driven. Still, family members can play an important role in supporting an individual who seeks help and can take part in family therapy as one element of a loved one’s treatment.
