Detoxification services are accessible for addicted individuals in Marshalltown, IA. who need professional help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons addicts 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 Marshalltown, Iowa detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual 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 stage of a comprehensive drug treatment facility that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
