Men and women who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will first go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the procedure of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is frequently uncomfortable and may carry risks if not performed in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can correctly oversee and provide medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services usually include insuring the person is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, delivering proper nutrition and ensuring the particular person is receiving proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as wanted to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The person in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some form of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can present detox services, the person will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to assure that any complications are handled as quickly and safely as possible.
