Manchester, CT. - Detoxification

Individuals who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will first go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the procedure of the drug being removed from one's system, which is often uncomfortable and may hold risks if not carried out in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detox services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehab facility which can adequately oversee and present medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services generally include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and ensuring the individual is getting proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as wanted to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The individual in detox 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 treatment facility which can offer detox services, the person will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to make certain that any complications are resolved as swiftly and safely as possible.
