Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Oroville who want assistance coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons individuals find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they must endure to detox on their own. Many physical and mental 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 symptoms to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Oroville, California detox facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional assistance to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but merely the first step of an extensive drug treatment program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
