Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will first go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the process of the drug being removed from one's system, which is typically uncomfortable and may carry risks if not performed in a setting which can supply 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 provide medical supervision for individuals who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services generally include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and making certain the person is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as needed 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 variety of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can supply detoxification services, the individual will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to make sure that any problems are fixed as swiftly and safely as possible.
