Men and women who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the process of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may carry risks if not conducted in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detoxification services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehab facility which can correctly oversee and supply medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services typically include insuring the client is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, delivering proper nutrition and ensuring the particular person is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as wanted to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The individual in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some kind of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug treatment facility which can offer detoxification services, the individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to make sure that any issues are resolved as swiftly and safely as possible.
