In a professional Toluca Lake, CA. detoxification 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 detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but merely the initial stage of a comprehensive drug treatment center that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
