Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detoxification before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the procedure of the drug being eradicated 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 provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug treatment facility which can appropriately oversee and provide medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services often 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 providing supplements and medicine as needed to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The individual 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 individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to assure that any issues are resolved as swiftly and safely as possible.
