Cedar Point, Kansas - Detoxification

People who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detoxification before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the process of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may hold risks if not executed in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detox services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehab facility which can adequately oversee and present medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services usually include insuring the person is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, providing proper nutrition and making certain the person is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The particular person 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 rehab facility which can offer detoxification services, the person will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to guarantee that any issues are resolved as swiftly and safely as possible.
