Millions of men and women of all age groups and all income levels are affected by heroin addiction. Not only are people just like you are using heroin, many are also using other substances like cocaine and prescription opioids at the same time.
At Restored Path Detox, we understand how difficult heroin withdrawal can be. Often, withdrawal symptoms are so severe that many people return to using within 24 hours. The key to overcoming this obstacle is medically monitored detox, where your withdrawal symptoms can be identified and treated immediately.
Restored Path Detox provides 24-hour medical supervision and care. We ensure you have a safe, secure, and comfortable detox so you can start your recovery journey.
We match you with a combination of effective detoxification techniques to provide comfortable, caring, and integrated care. We’ll prescribe targeted medications to alleviate your symptoms of heroin withdrawal while simultaneously preventing dangerous symptoms.
At Restored Path Detox, we combine MAT options with round-the-clock medical supervision and a range of specialized addiction services. We encourage you to participate in individual and group therapy sessions if you feel up to it.
At Restored Path Detox, we walk with you through every stage of early recovery in a calm and serene environment. We can quickly complete your entire admission, and welcome you into our comfortable, standalone detox facility. While we are nearby a hospital should any complications arise, our atmosphere is unlike a sterile hospital ward. We tailor your experience to feel like home.
Heroin is an opioid that triggers specific naturally occurring neurotransmitters like dopamine to activate mu-opioid receptors (MORs) in the reward center of the brain. These MORs regulate pain, hormone release, and feelings of well-being.
The consequences of activating opioid receptors with heroin (versus naturally occurring chemicals within our bodies) depend on a variety of factors. The amount of heroin used, its bind location in your brain and body, how strongly it binds, how long, how quickly it gets there, and what happens afterward all affect your ability to stop using heroin.
Heroin addiction is non-discriminatory. The signs and symptoms vary among users based upon genetic makeup, amount of drug used, frequency of use, and level of dependency on the drug. We understand this and will help personalize your detox.

Like many others, you may spend a great deal of time obtaining, using, and recovering from heroin, and as you develop physical tolerance, more heroin is required for the same effects to be produced.
