What to Expect in Detox
Understanding the Detox Experience
For people who have decided that they want to live a sober life, detoxification (“detox”) is an essential first step. The detox process is different for everyone, but the ultimate goal remains the same – ridding the body of toxic substances so you can be free to pursue your recovery.
In addition to the type of substance (or substances) that a patient has been using, various other factors can influence the duration of detox and the symptoms that patients experience. Your age, overall health, experience with detox, and length of time addicted can impact the time and severity of your detox and the withdrawal symptoms you may experience.
Individualized Detox Treatment Plans
During the ATS phase of detox, qualified medical professionals are available to provide medicine to help reduce the symptoms of withdrawal. They are also trained to recognize and manage medical emergencies that may occur due to withdrawal symptoms or co-occurring conditions.
The environment at Mayflower Detox has been professionally designed to provide a serene, discrete, and comfortable place to stay during your detox.

Withdrawal Symptoms during ATS Detox
When you enter ATS Detox your body begins to get rid of the toxic substances (“detoxing”). You will undoubtedly experience some withdrawal symptoms early on. Your brain, body, and central nervous system have become dependent on these substances over a long time. Removing them over a short period of time will have negative consequences.
Withdrawal Symptoms vary for each person, but there are common symptoms associated with the detoxification process. This is why it is critical to have a professional, licensed staff monitor and oversee this vital part of your recovery process. Common withdrawal symptoms include:
- Digestive issues
- Anxiety
- Rapid heart rate
- Excessive sweating
- Depression
- Tremors
- Confusion
- Sleep disturbances
- Mood swings
- Muscle pain
