In a professional Pleasant Lake detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person go through 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 stage of a comprehensive drug treatment center that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
