Individuals who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will 1st go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the process of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is often uncomfortable and may hold risks if not performed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehab facility which can properly oversee and present medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs.
