Rockford, Michigan - Detoxification

People who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the process of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is frequently uncomfortable and may hold risks if not performed in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as needed. Detox services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug treatment facility which can adequately oversee and present medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services usually include insuring the client is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and ensuring the person is getting proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as needed to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The person in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some sort of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can provide detox services, the client will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to ensure that any complications are fixed as swiftly and safely as possible.
