Detoxification services are offered for people in Radford, VA. who need help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when the person has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons addicts find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they will need to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological discomforts 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 Radford, VA. detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but merely the first step of an extensive drug rehab center that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
