Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Hot Springs who need help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons individuals find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they will need to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological discomforts 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 Hot Springs, Arkansas detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual 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 rehab, but merely the first stage of an extensive drug treatment facility that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
