Detox is the critical first step in the addiction treatment process that involves ridding the body of addictive substances under the guidance and care of medical professionals. The Retreat of Atlanta’s Detox Program provides a safe, comfortable environment where individuals can detox prior to beginning their individualized residential or outpatient treatment programs. When appropriate, individuals are prescribed medications intended to make the detox experience as comfortable as possible. The detox treatment is done under the care of 24 hour nursing staff under the guidance of our medical director.
