Detoxification - Thompson, ND.

Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help 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 hold risks if not conducted in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as required.
