Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Ponte Vedra Beach who want assistance coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons addicts find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they have to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological challenges 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 depression and anxiety. In a professional Ponte Vedra Beach detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional support to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the first step of a comprehensive drug treatment center that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
