Lotus - Detoxification

Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will first go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is simply the process of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may carry risks if not performed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as needed. Detoxification services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug treatment facility which can adequately oversee and provide medical supervision for men and women 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, delivering proper nutrition and ensuring the particular person is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The person in detoxification 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 rehab facility which can offer detox services, the client will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to make sure that any issues are resolved as rapidly and safely as possible.
