Detoxification services are available for individuals in Pine Ridge, SD. who need 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 people find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to 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 effects to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Pine Ridge, SD. detox facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional support to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but simply the initial stage of a comprehensive drug treatment program that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
