Top Rated Drug Detox Program | Allentown

What is Detox Like?

Entering into drug detox when you are ready to overcome your substance use disorders is the first initial step of your addiction recovery program. Drug detox is the time for patients to rid your body of the harmful chemicals and toxins from drugs and alcohol to enable you to have a clear mindset to begin to heal from the underlying causes of your substance abuse. The drug detox phase is a time where your body will begin to adjust to functioning without having drugs and alcohol in your system. During this time, you will experience uncomfortable or unpleasant side effects from drug withdrawal. Participating in a medical detox program within our recovery center will allow you to have ongoing support and supervision from our licensed nurses and doctors that will ensure your physical, emotional, and mental health safety. You will be provided with medical treatments and addiction therapy methods that will support you through your first steps in your recovery journey.
