Individuals who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will 1st go through detoxification before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the process of the drug being removed from one's system, which is usually uncomfortable and may carry risks if not carried out in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehab facility which can correctly oversee and provide medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services usually include insuring the person is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, offering proper nutrition and making certain the individual is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as wanted to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The person in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some form of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug treatment facility which can present detoxification services, the individual will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to assure that any difficulties are fixed as rapidly and safely as possible.
