Detoxification services are accessible for people in Oxnard, CA. who need help 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 main reasons individuals find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the process they must go through to detox on their own. Many physical and mental 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 Oxnard detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional assistance to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the first step of an extensive drug rehabilitation program that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the individual can achieve long term sobriety.
