Lowell, Ohio - Detoxification

Individuals who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will first go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the procedure of the drug being removed from one's system, which is often uncomfortable and may carry risks if not carried out in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as needed. Detox services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehab facility which can appropriately oversee and supply medical supervision for individuals who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services often include insuring the person is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and ensuring the individual is receiving proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as needed to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The person in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some form of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehab facility which can offer detoxification services, the person will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to guarantee that any difficulties are resolved as quickly and safely as possible.
