Fulton - Detoxification

Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detoxification before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the process of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may hold risks if not conducted in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehab facility which can properly oversee and supply medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services usually include insuring the client is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and ensuring the person is receiving proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detoxification process as easy and safe as possible. The particular person in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some variety of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehab facility which can present detoxification services, the person will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to make certain that any problems are handled as quickly and safely as possible.
