Bunnell, FL. - Detoxification

Individuals who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the process of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is typically uncomfortable and may carry risks if not carried out in a setting which can provide 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 correctly oversee and provide medical supervision for people 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, offering proper nutrition and making certain the person is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as needed to make the detox process as easy 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 detoxification facility or drug treatment facility which can provide detoxification services, the individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to make certain that any difficulties are handled as quickly and safely as possible.
