Detoxification - Josephine, Texas

People who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the process of the drug being removed from one's system, which is frequently uncomfortable and may hold risks if not carried out in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can appropriately oversee and provide medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services frequently include insuring the client is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, providing proper nutrition and making certain the person is receiving proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as required to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The individual in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some type of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug treatment facility which can present detoxification services, the client will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to assure that any complications are handled as rapidly and safely as possible.
