Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Ewa Beach who want assistance coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons addicts find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they will need to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional difficulties 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 Ewa Beach detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional assistance to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but merely the initial step of a comprehensive drug rehab program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
