Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Shelbina, Missouri who need help coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons people find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the process they must endure to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological 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 effects to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Shelbina, MO. detox facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but merely the initial stage of an extensive drug treatment program that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
