Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the process of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is typically uncomfortable and may carry risks if not executed in a setting which can offer 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 supply medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services usually include insuring the individual is as comfortable 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 supplying supplements and medicine as required to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The individual in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some kind of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug treatment facility which can offer detox services, the client will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to assure that any difficulties are handled as rapidly and safely as possible.
