Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Port Republic, VA. who want help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when someone has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons addicts 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 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 anxiety and depression. In a professional Port Republic, VA. detox facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but simply the initial stage of a comprehensive drug rehabilitation center that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
