In a professional Shushan, New York 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 drug rehab, but merely the first step of a comprehensive drug rehab program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can achieve long term sobriety.
