What is Medical Detox?Â
Medical detox marks the first step toward recovery for those facing substance use disorder. It's a crucial phase where medical professionals skillfully manage dangerous withdrawal symptoms as individuals undergo substance abuse treatment.Â
At Freedom From Addiction, our patients go through medically assisted detox, receiving tailored care and medication support to alleviate discomfort and ensure a safer, more comfortable path to healing.
