People who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will 1st go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the process of the drug being removed from one's system, which is frequently uncomfortable and may hold risks if not conducted in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detox services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug treatment facility which can correctly oversee and supply medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs.
