Detoxification
The First Step on Your Journey to Recovery
Detox is often the starting point for many recovery journeys and is needed to physically stabilize a person. The physical withdrawals can be debilitating and in some cases life threatening. Detox gives one time and medical attention necessary to free one from the physical need for a substance.
The average detox treatment is between 5 to 7 days. If you are unable to stop using without experiencing withdrawals and need help finding a detox, AccessDirect Recovery Network has the ability to direct and connect you fast to a detox facility based on your needs.
