Detoxification - Augusta, Kansas

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