Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Savona, NY. who want professional help coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the person 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 discomfort they will need to go through to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional difficulties 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 Savona detox 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 person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but merely the first step of an extensive drug rehabilitation facility that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
