Men and women who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the procedure of the drug being removed from one's system, which is frequently uncomfortable and may carry risks if not executed in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detox services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug treatment facility which can correctly oversee and present medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services generally include insuring the individual is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and making certain the particular person is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as wanted to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The individual in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some form of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can present detoxification services, the individual will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to assure that any problems are handled as quickly and safely as possible.
