Detoxification - Havelock

People who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will first go through detoxification before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the procedure of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may carry risks if not executed in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can appropriately oversee and supply medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services typically include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, offering proper nutrition and making certain the particular person is getting proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as needed to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The person in detox 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 supply detox services, the individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to make certain that any problems are resolved as rapidly and safely as possible.
