Marianna, Florida - Detoxification

Individuals who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the procedure of the drug being removed from one's system, which is typically uncomfortable and may carry risks if not conducted in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detoxification services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can adequately oversee and provide medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services typically include insuring the individual is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, offering proper nutrition and ensuring the particular person is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detox process as easy and safe as possible. The particular person in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some type 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 issues are handled as rapidly and safely as possible.
