Drug and Alcohol Detoxification
An essential first step in your rehabilitation from substance abuse is detoxification.

The staff at Luxury Beach Rehab will guide you through the process of drug and alcohol detoxification so that you can begin to heal your mind and body from the effects of substance abuse.
What to Expect
The symptoms of withdrawal are different for everyone depending on the substance being abused and the severity of the addiction. Emotional and physical withdrawal symptoms can range from mild to life threatening and can be extremely difficult to manage alone.
