Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the procedure of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may hold risks if not carried out in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as needed. Detox services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can correctly oversee and present medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services often include insuring the client is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and making certain the particular person is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as needed to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The individual in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some sort of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug rehab facility which can supply detoxification services, the individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to ensure that any complications are handled as rapidly and safely as possible.
