What Is Detox?
Detox is the first step towards a sober life. Detox typically begins anywhere from a few hours to a few days after a person’s last substance use. It is a natural process when the body is rid of toxins that have built up in the system from drug use. Detox tends to be uncomfortable, and without symptom management, it has the potential to be dangerous. Detox symptoms vary from person to person and depend on several factors.
If you or a loved one are looking to go through the detox process, Essence Healthcare is here to help. Detoxing through a program with Essence can ensure that you have the safest and most comfortable detox possible.

Detoxing With Essence
At Essence Healthcare, our top priority is to get you feeling better and back to your family as soon as possible. Detox at Essence takes anywhere between 3 and 10 days. We offer both medically managed detox and subacute detox programs.
Our medical detox allows for 24/7 support and monitoring to ensure that your experience is free of complications. Our subacute detox and residential program offer the same level of support in a slightly more relaxed setting. Subacute detox is an appropriate choice for those who still need detox but don’t need round-the-clock monitoring. Typically after detox, patients transition into residential or outpatient treatment.
Stabilization
Fast and efficient recovery isn’t the only benefit of choosing Essence for your detox and treatment. Our team of professionals prioritizes customized attention and instant access. With us, each patient has 24/7 access to a dedicated team of up to five addiction professionals.
During both detox and treatment, patients receive a high level of clinical care. Patients can expect to meet with a therapist anywhere from 3-6 times a week during both detox and treatment. During this time, you will receive the support and care you need to plan for your future and put that plan into action. Rather than focus on the past, our approach focuses on the now and on creating the future that you want for yourself.
With facilities in Hollywood Hills, West Hollywood, and Sherman Oaks, we provide a quiet and comfortable living environment for our patients to heal in peace. Patients at Essence can enjoy meditation, TMS, outdoor adventure therapy, and more. Call us and schedule your detox today.
