Detoxification

The first step towards recovery

Detoxification is the initial therapeutic and clinical process designed to safely, structuredly, and controllably interrupt the consumption of alcohol or other substances. Through a precise combination of state-of-the-art pharmacological measures and personalized hygienic-dietary support, we manage to mitigate and neutralize withdrawal symptoms, always prioritizing the patient’s well-being.

Understanding addiction as a chronic disease allows us to approach this process not just as a goal, but as the indispensable bridge towards definitive rehabilitation. It is the safest, most efficient, and scientifically proven option to regain control of your personal, family, and professional life in the shortest possible time.

Objectives of Admission and Medical Detoxification

Our detoxification program in Mallorca is not limited to the cessation of substance use; it is designed under a comprehensive medical approach to meet all the patient’s needs:

Organic Stabilization: Freeing the body from physical dependence and the toxicity accumulated from chronic substance use.

Withdrawal Syndrome Management: Minimizing the impact of physical and psychological discomfort through continuous medical supervision and specific pharmacology.

Safe and Supportive Environment: Providing a protected space, free from consumption triggers, to help overcome the barriers and crises of the first few days.

Multidisciplinary Medical Assessment: Immediately diagnosing and treating any concomitant medical pathology or dual diagnosis (associated psychological disorders).

Motivation and Adherence: Building a commitment to the subsequent phases of psychotherapeutic treatment from day one.

Prevention and Education: Initiating essential health education guidelines and early tools for relapse prevention.

Every addiction process is unique, which is why the intervention must be completely flexible

At Bonaire Detox, we offer two paths of action depending on the medical team’s assessment and the patient’s circumstances

Inpatient Detoxification (Admission)

Recommended for cases of severe or prolonged consumption, or when there is a risk of medical complications (such as in severe alcoholism). It offers 24-hour medical monitoring in a controlled clinical environment, ensuring maximum safety.

Outpatient Detoxification

Geared towards patients with a high level of family support, strong motivation, and a clinical profile that allows combining medical treatment and daily follow-ups with their regular environment, without the need for overnight stays.

Frequently Asked Questions About Medical Detoxification

How long does a detoxification process last?

The physical detoxification phase usually lasts between 7 and 21 days, depending on the substance, the duration of use, and the patient’s general health conditions.

Is medical detoxification painful?

No. Thanks to current pharmacological treatments administered by our medical team, withdrawal symptoms are kept to a minimum, ensuring a safe process without unnecessary suffering.

What is the difference between detoxification and recovery?

Detoxification cleanses the body and overcomes physical dependence. Recovery (or rehabilitation) is the subsequent process, focused on psychological therapy to change behaviors and heal emotional dependence.
