In a professional Powellsville, NC. detox facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional assistance to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but simply the first step of an extensive drug treatment center that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
