Detox is the first step in recovery and helps the body adjust after stopping drugs or alcohol in a safe, supportive environment.
Detox is typically short-term and lasts several days, though the exact length depends on the substance used and individual needs.
Detox can be uncomfortable, but support and structure help manage symptoms and make the process more tolerable for most people.
Many people benefit from detox before starting residential treatment because it helps stabilize the body and mind so treatment can be more effective.
