Detoxification - Covington

Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will first go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is simply the process of the drug being removed from one's system, which is usually uncomfortable and may hold risks if not conducted in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detox services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can properly oversee and supply medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services frequently include insuring the client is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and ensuring the individual is getting proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as needed to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The particular person 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 rehabilitation facility which can offer detoxification services, the individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to ensure that any problems are handled as rapidly and safely as possible.
