Detoxification services are available for individuals in Sacramento who need help coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons people find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they must endure 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 Sacramento, California detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional assistance to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but simply the initial stage of a comprehensive drug rehabilitation facility that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
