In a professional Prides Crossing detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional support to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the first stage of an extensive drug treatment center that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
