Detoxification - Salem, Virginia

Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will first go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the procedure of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may carry risks if not performed in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detox services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug treatment facility which can correctly oversee and supply medical supervision for persons 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, delivering proper nutrition and ensuring the individual is receiving proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as required 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 detoxification facility or drug treatment facility which can provide detoxification services, the client will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to make sure that any difficulties are resolved as quickly and safely as possible.
