Detoxification services are offered for people in Santa Clara, California who need help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons addicts find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the process they will need to go through 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 Santa Clara, CA. detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional assistance to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but simply the initial stage of an extensive drug rehabilitation program that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
