Individuals who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the procedure of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may hold 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 rehab facility which can correctly oversee and provide medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services generally include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, providing proper nutrition and making certain the particular person is receiving proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The particular person in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some kind of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug rehab facility which can provide detoxification services, the individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to make certain that any problems are fixed as rapidly and safely as possible.
