In a professional Huntington Station detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional assistance to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but simply the first step of an extensive drug treatment facility that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
