Our Detox Process
Heal the Body, then Heal the Mind
Detox is the first essential step in overcoming alcohol addiction, drug addiction, or any substance use disorder, as it allows the body to eliminate harmful substances and prepare for recovery. Because withdrawal symptoms can range from mild discomfort to severe medical risks, professional medical detox is strongly recommended for safety and comfort. At Tikvah Lake Recovery, clients are connected with trusted detox centers in Florida before beginning luxury residential treatment in a serene lakeside setting. Once detox is complete, individuals can continue their recovery journey through inpatient rehab, outpatient programs, or specialized care such as dual diagnosis treatment for co-occurring mental health disorders. Tikvah Lake offers highly personalized treatment plans, evidence-based therapies, holistic wellness programs, relapse prevention strategies, and a supportive executive concierge team—all in a private, six-client facility. With this individualized approach, Tikvah Lake helps clients and their loved ones heal both body and mind while building a foundation for long-term recovery.
Safe + Supportive
Finding Florida Drug & Alcohol Detox Through Tikvah Lake Recovery
Breaking free from alcohol addiction, drug addiction, or any substance use disorder begins with one crucial first step: detoxification. Detox is the process of safely clearing substances from the body so that recovery can begin. While this phase can be challenging—often involving uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms—it is also a powerful turning point in your journey toward lasting sobriety.
At Tikvah Lake Recovery, we believe in the philosophy: heal the body, then heal the mind. Although our Florida treatment center does not provide on-site medical detox, we partner with trusted and accredited detox centers nearby to ensure our clients have access to high-quality, evidence-based medical care before entering our luxury residential program. Whether you or a loved one are seeking a fresh start, our team is here to help guide you toward the best treatment options for your unique needs.

What is Detox?
Detox refers to the process that starts when an individual stops using the substance their body has become dependent on and allows themselves to be rid of it. During this period, an individual may experience withdrawal symptoms as their body adapts to not having the alcohol or drug it was reliant on. These symptoms can vary depending on the substance and the severity of the addiction.
To make the detox process more comfortable and safer, it’s best to undergo this process under the care and supervision of medical professionals. Tikvah Lake partners with luxury detox centers in the nearby area, ensuring guests have access to high-quality care.
- Alcohol withdrawal: Symptoms can include headaches, nausea, sweating, anxiety, insomnia, vomiting, and, in some cases, hallucinations and seizures.
- Heroin withdrawal: Symptoms can include nausea, sweating, chills, anxiety, stomach cramps, and muscle aches.
- Marijuana withdrawal: Symptoms can include diminished appetite, mood changes, headaches, sweating, and chills.
- Meth withdrawal: Symptoms can include fatigue, psychosis, anxiety, depression, dry mouth, headaches, muscle spasms, and paranoia.
- Opioid withdrawal: Symptoms can include a runny nose, watery eyes, nausea, vomiting, muscle aches, sweating, and feelings of anxiousness.

What to Expect
How Long Does It Take to Detox?
The length of the detox process depends on many factors, such as the type of substance and the severity of the addiction. For a general idea, the average length of time it takes to detox from the following substances is:
- Alcohol: Generally 5-7 days
- Heroin: Generally 5-7 days
- Marijuana: While physical symptoms generally resolve within a few days, feelings of depression and cravings may persist for 2-3 weeks
- Meth: Most physical symptoms begin to resolve after a week, while psychological symptoms such as cravings, fatigue, and mood swings may last for weeks
- Opioids: This will depend on the type of opioid used. For some opioids, detox can last up to two weeks
After detox, guests can come into our luxury residential treatment center and continue their recovery care.

Frequently Asked Questions about Detox
A drug and alcohol detox center is a specialized facility designed to help individuals safely withdraw from substances such as drugs and alcohol. These centers typically provide medical supervision to manage withdrawal symptoms and ensure the safety and comfort of clients as they begin their journey toward recovery.
When you arrive at a drug detox center, you can expect a thorough intake assessment that evaluates your medical history, substance use, mental health status, and any co-occurring disorders. This information helps staff create a personalized detox plan tailored to your needs. Throughout the detox process, clients are often monitored around-the-clock by a team of healthcare professionals who may administer medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and provide emotional support.
Clients usually stay in detox for a predetermined period, ranging from a few days to several weeks, depending on the type and severity of substance use, as well as individual health conditions. During this time, they may engage in counseling sessions, group therapy, and holistic therapies that promote overall well-being. The environment is structured and supportive, encouraging clients to focus exclusively on their recovery without the distractions of the outside world.
A drug and alcohol detox center offers numerous benefits, including a medically supervised environment that mitigates the risks associated with withdrawal, access to experienced professionals who can provide personalized care, and the opportunity to connect with peers who are undergoing similar struggles. Additionally, detox centers often lay the groundwork for ongoing addiction treatment programs by fostering a strong support system.
A detox center is essential for anyone struggling with substance use disorders, especially those with a history of heavy use or dependency on alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, or other substances that can cause severe withdrawal symptoms. It is particularly important for individuals who may have experienced unsuccessful attempts at quitting on their own or those who have underlying health issues that could complicate the detox process.
Detox serves as the critical first step in the overall addiction treatment process, cleansing the body of harmful substances and addressing physical dependence. By removing the immediate presence of drugs or alcohol, detox prepares clients for further therapeutic interventions such as counseling, behavioral therapies, and support groups. This phase is vital for initiating recovery, as it allows individuals to move forward with a clear mind and a more stable foundation for long-term sobriety.
