Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Helmetta who want assistance coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons individuals find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they have to go through 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 Helmetta detox facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional support to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the initial stage of an extensive drug rehabilitation program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
