Detoxification services are offered for people in Bellefonte, PA. who want professional help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when someone has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons individuals find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they have to go through to detox on their own. Many physical and mental discomforts come with this process because the body begins to go through drug and/or alcohol withdrawal, the symptoms of which can range from flu like effects to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Bellefonte detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional support to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the first step of a comprehensive drug rehabilitation facility that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
