Some people need a period of detoxification when they first arrive at their chosen clinic – this can
last a day or two up to a week, sometimes a little longer.
Do I need detox?
A detox plan depends on 5 points:
1) The unique composition of your body
2) Your drug of choice (including alcohol) – your current intake
3) The number of years you have been using
4) Whether you are on any other medication
5) Where you are taking more than one type of drug (i.e. cocaine and alcohol, or alcohol and painkillers)
A detox plan written by trained professionals in a clinic setting is highly recommended by REHAB BRISTOL.
Detoxing at home while trying to manage your own withdrawal symptoms is not advised.
We can help you connect with the most appropriate treatment centre for your needs.
Detox means rest, often with a prescription to gently wean from the substance(s) and alleviate
withdrawal symptoms as comfortably as possible.

Our partner clinics employ clinical teams – a detox plan is prepared on day one, and regularly
monitored to ensure the safety of every client.
Withdrawal Means … the body’s removal of toxins. Those suffering with addiction often have many
years of substance abuse behind them, and their body has become accustomed to the drug.
When the drug is withdrawn – withdrawal symptoms may begin from 2-24 hours later.

When a period of detox comes to an end – you will be encouraged to engage in the rehab program
in the clinic – this may include:
Group therapy
Group therapy is central to your recovery.
Group therapy is often Addiction Therapist-led – lots of experiences and a passion for recovery.
Addiction Therapists are often in recovery themselves – they know how you feel.
One to one therapy
Not everyone requires this level of interaction – if this is a priority for you, then phone us and we can
advise on clinics to suit your needs.
Peer support work
Working on therapeutic tasks with you fellow peers is a vital component to your recovery.
Feedback from people we come to trust is key in our progress through rehab and beyond.
Help is always on hand from clever and experienced Recovery Workers.
Gym / Swim / General Fitness and Nutrition Experts
Physical well being is very important element to rehab life – not all clinics offer gym/swim facilities –
if this is a priority to you, then please get in touch.
Some clinics employ a Nutritionist – after a period of addiction, our general health tends to have
suffered. We can help you recovery body and soul.
