Drug Detox in Southern California
Most chronic alcoholics and addicts require detoxification (drug detox) to help their bodies cope with the changes in body chemistry, brought on by rapidly ending the use of drugs or alcohol. The substances you've been abusing have been poisoning your system for a long time. If you're going to get well, your body has to go through a period of adjustment, to allow those poisons to work their way out of your system.
If you've been a long-term user, you're probably familiar with the feelings of withdrawal that occur when you weren't able to use for some reason: constant vomiting, shaking, convulsing and sweating that feels like "the flu on steroids." The body can't keep foods down, the mind can't concentrate, and sleep never comes. That's the price you pay for putting your body through the hell of substance abuse.
We don't want our clients to pay that price when they're getting clean and sober. Where's the joy in that? Our program offers medically supervised detox that alleviates the most severe symptoms of withdrawal after long-term addiction. You'll be under professional observation throughout the initial stages of the detox process, so your mind and body are healthier when you begin to participate in your treatment program.
