Addiction We Treat
- Alcohol Addiction
  
  Alcohol addiction is a condition that alters the functioning of the brain. It leads to adverse emotional states, impulsive actions, intense desires, and symptoms of withdrawal. Managing alcohol addiction involves undergoing supervised detoxification, engaging in counselling and therapy sessions, and actively participating in support groups.
