Detoxification services are accessible for people in Leonard, MN. who need help coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the person has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons addicts 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 discomforts 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 depression and anxiety. In a professional Leonard, MN. detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but merely the initial step of a comprehensive drug treatment program that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can achieve long term sobriety.
