Detox Info
Depending on the severity of the alcohol illness, the detox process can take from a few days to over a week.   The usual length of time is about a week – to get all of the toxins and pollutants out of a person's body and help regain a clear pattern of thought. All detoxs performed at Southern California Alcohol Detox are supervised 24 hours a day for the duration of the treatment.   Licensed medical professionals and psychiatric help are available around the clock and our clients are encouraged to express what they are thinking and feeling throughout the process.

The detox itself is a painless process, meaning we do not inflict any pain or use any medications that may cause discomfort, however depending on the severity of the alcoholic illness, the patient may experience some level of discomfort.   Delirium tremens (shaking of parts or all of the body), hot and cold flashes and serious cravings may take place.   It is important that the individual goes through this process because the uncomfortable feelings are actually the detoxification itself.  

Once a client arrives at Southern California Alcohol Detox, a consultation session will be held with a medical professional.   After this session, a psychological evaluation will also be held to determine what type of further treatment is necessary after the initial detoxification.   We have structured a program that provides the most valuable points of alcohol detoxification as primary.   We offer certain food items; vitamins and other treatment options to expedite the process and all of our treatments are always supervised.

Our treatment facility offers the best quality care and options available for every type of individual.   For instance, an adolescent with an alcohol abuse problem may need different treatment than a business executive in need of a detox.   We are located on the beautiful coast of Southern California and use our beachside location to aid in the detoxification process.   Offering various options for all of our clients makes us the best choice around for alcohol detox.
