Maquoketa - Detoxification

Men and women who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want help will first go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the process of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is often uncomfortable and may carry risks if not performed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as needed. Detoxification services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can adequately oversee and supply medical supervision for individuals who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services usually include insuring the client is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, providing proper nutrition and making certain the individual is receiving proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detoxification process as easy and safe as possible. The individual in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some variety of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehab facility which can supply detox services, the client will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to ensure that any problems are resolved as swiftly and safely as possible.
