Individuals who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will 1st go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the process of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is frequently uncomfortable and may hold risks if not performed in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detox services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehab facility which can appropriately oversee and present medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services generally include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and ensuring the person is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The individual in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some kind of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can offer detoxification services, the individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to assure that any complications are resolved as rapidly and safely as possible.
