In a professional Middlesboro, Kentucky detox facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional support to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the first step of an extensive drug rehab facility that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
