Douglas, MI. - Detoxification

Individuals who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the procedure of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is frequently uncomfortable and may hold risks if not executed in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detox services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug treatment facility which can adequately oversee and supply medical supervision for individuals who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services frequently include insuring the person is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, offering proper nutrition and making certain the individual is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as needed to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The particular person in detoxification 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 rehab facility which can supply detox services, the person will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to assure that any issues are handled as quickly and safely as possible.
