Detoxification services are offered for people in Jackson who need assistance coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons people find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they have to go through to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological 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 symptoms to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Jackson, Michigan detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional support to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but simply the first step of a comprehensive drug rehab facility that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
