Detoxification services are accessible for addicted individuals in Rochester, MN. who need assistance coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons addicts find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to 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 symptoms to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Rochester detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional support to get the individual 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 underlying addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
