Prepare Your Body Before Starting the Work of Recovery
For some clients, detox is a necessary first step in the recovery process. Itโs a way to rid the body of addictive substances and toxins to prepare for the next phases of treatment.
Itโs important to understand that detox itself isnโt a form of treatment. Think of it like stretching before exercising; itโs an important step that prepares your body and mind for whatโs to come.
How Detox Works
Like so many other elements of addiction treatment, thereโs no one-size-fits-all approach to detox. The process and timing of detox depends on the personโs health, addiction history and substances used.
In a South Florida detox center, the process typically starts with intake. An addiction counselor will ask questions about your substance use, especially recent usage, and the centerโs medical staff will create a personalized plan.
Some people detox without any medical managementโthat is, without being prescribed any medications to help with the withdrawal symptoms. For people with severe addictions, however, or those who have complicated medical issues, a staff member may use medications to help safely rid the body of substances.
Some South Florida detox centers donโt offer medically managed detox, so itโs important to ask questions when choosing the right detox center for you. At Recovery in Tune, we can help you make that determination. And no matter what South Florida detox center you choose, you should make sure that youโll be carefully and continuously monitored by staff.

How Long Detox Takes
Detox can take as little as two days or as long as 10 days, and sometimes longer. Even medical staff canโt determine in advance exactly how long the process will take. No two people detox at exactly the same rate, and itโs important not to rush the detox process.
