Detoxification services are available for individuals in Pomeroy, PA. who want professional help coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons people find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they must go through to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological 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 Pomeroy detox facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional support to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but merely the initial stage of a comprehensive drug rehab facility that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
