Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will first go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the procedure of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may hold risks if not performed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can correctly oversee and present medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs.
