Medical Detox at Vista Taos
The first step toward recovery from drug or alcohol addiction is often medical detox. Detoxification clears substances from the body and helps restore balance so you can begin healing.
 

Why Detox Matters
Substance abuse changes brain chemistry and makes withdrawal symptoms severe. Trying to quit alone can be dangerous and often leads to relapse. At Vista Taos, detox is medically monitored to ensure safety and comfort.
