Detoxification services are offered for people in Hawi who want assistance coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons individuals find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to go through to detox on their own. Many physical and mental 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 symptoms to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Hawi, Hawaii detox facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional assistance to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but merely the first step of a comprehensive drug rehab facility that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
