Detoxification services are available for people in Medford, WI. who need help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons people find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they will need to go through to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional 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 depression and anxiety. In a professional Medford detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional assistance to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the first step of a comprehensive drug treatment program that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
