Detoxification services are available for individuals in Sepulveda, CA. who want assistance 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 people find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they must 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 symptoms to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Sepulveda detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional assistance to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but merely the first step of an extensive drug rehab program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
