Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Thetford Center, VT. who want professional help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when someone has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons individuals find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they will need to go through to detox on their own.

In a professional Thetford Center, Vermont detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional support to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but merely the initial stage of a comprehensive drug rehabilitation program that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
