1 st Step’s drug detox center safely helps people suffering from substance abuse navigate through the recovery process, including experiencing symptoms of withdrawal, resulting from habitual use of drugs and alcohol. Drug and alcohol detox (informally referred to as drug and alcohol detoxification) is an intervention in the case of physical dependence to a drug or alcohol, the practice of various medical treatments for symptoms of withdrawal. Individuals who have been habitually using alcohol or drugs for a period of time will develop a chemical dependency, and it can be dangerous to try detox without medical assistance.
