However this term is being used commercially to sell health products and services that are not really Detoxes but the idea helps with marketing.

To keep the environment safe we have rules, expectations and guidelines to be followed, some are very important such as not using drink or drugs unless directed by our staff. No sexual relationships as they ruin the therapeutic community and no aggression, violence or threats.

We think so but in an appropriate manner and with our support and guidance, when you are ready. Be proud! You are taking responsibility and being honest is a healthy way forward.
