Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Scranton, IA. who need help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons addicts find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional 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 symptoms to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Scranton detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual 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 full rehabilitation, but merely the initial stage of a comprehensive drug rehab program that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
