Detoxification services are available for individuals in Danville who want professional help 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 hard to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they have to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological 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 depression and anxiety. In a professional Danville detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the initial step of an extensive drug treatment center that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
