Detoxification - Roxbury

Individuals who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detoxification before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the procedure of the drug being removed from one's system, which is frequently uncomfortable and may carry risks if not executed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug treatment facility which can adequately oversee and supply medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services typically include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and making certain the individual is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as required to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The particular person in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some variety of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can supply detoxification services, the individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to ensure that any problems are handled as rapidly and safely as possible.
