Detoxification - Redding Ridge, Connecticut

People who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the procedure of the drug being removed from one's system, which is frequently uncomfortable and may carry risks if not performed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detox services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug treatment facility which can properly oversee and provide medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services generally include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, delivering proper nutrition and making certain the individual is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as required to make the detox process as easy and safe as possible. The person in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some kind of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can present detoxification services, the person will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to make sure that any difficulties are fixed as quickly and safely as possible.
