Detoxification services are available for people in Canon City, CO. who want assistance coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons individuals find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional challenges 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 Canon City, CO. detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional assistance to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but simply the initial stage of an extensive drug treatment center that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
