Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Rudd, IA. who need professional help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when someone has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons individuals find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process 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 effects to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Rudd, IA. detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but merely the first step of a comprehensive drug rehab program that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
