What Exactly is Detox?
Detox or detoxification is the first step in addiction recovery. It is the process by which you remove any remaining toxins from your body. As you abuse drugs and alcohol, compounds can remain in your system and build up over time.
If you give your body enough time to flush the compounds between doses, you experience withdrawal symptoms. These are very unpleasant and, in some cases, pose serious health risks. That is why most people avoid the pain and discomfort of withdrawal by abusing more. But this means you have an increased build-up of toxins from those compounds in your body.
At the best drug and alcohol detox center, you can initiate detox by moving forward through your withdrawal symptoms and allowing your body to get rid of those compounds once and for all. Reach out to Find Luxury Rehabs to review what drug detox program might fit your situation.
What Role Does Detox Play in Recovery?
A drug detox program is a requirement at any detox facility. You won’t be able to participate in a residential or outpatient program if you haven’t completed your detox because you have to be able to get clean before you can focus on identifying contributing factors to your addiction, learning trigger management, and applying healthy coping skills as an alternative to substance abuse.
Let Find Luxury Rehabs help you pick a drug detox treatment that works.
