Mexico - Detoxification

Individuals who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the procedure of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is typically uncomfortable and may carry risks if not performed in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detox services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can correctly oversee and supply medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services frequently include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, providing proper nutrition and ensuring the individual is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detoxification process as easy and safe as possible. The individual in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some form of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug treatment facility which can present detoxification services, the individual will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to ensure that any complications are handled as quickly and safely as possible.
