Real Stories From Those We Serve
Medical detox is a short-term, inpatient treatment that helps you safely withdraw from substances like alcohol, opioids, or benzodiazepines under 24/7 clinical supervision. It reduces health risks and prepares you for ongoing recovery.
Detox focuses on safely managing withdrawal symptoms, while rehab (residential or PHP) provides therapy and skill-building for long-term recovery. Detox is often the first step before entering a full treatment program.
If you’re physically dependent on alcohol, opioids, or benzodiazepines, quitting without medical support can be dangerous. Detox helps you stabilize physically before starting therapy-based care.
With medical supervision and appropriate medications, we minimize discomfort and manage symptoms like anxiety, tremors, nausea, or insomnia. Most clients report feeling safe and supported throughout the process.
After detox, clients typically transition into a residential, PHP, or IOP program. Our team helps coordinate your next step so there are no gaps in care.
