People who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will 1st go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the process of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is typically uncomfortable and may hold risks if not conducted in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary.
