Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will first go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is simply the procedure 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 needed. Detox services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehab facility which can correctly oversee and present medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services generally include insuring the person is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, offering proper nutrition and making certain the particular person is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The person in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some kind of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug treatment facility which can present detoxification services, the client will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to make certain that any problems are handled as rapidly and safely as possible.
