Willow Creek - Detoxification

Individuals who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will first go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the procedure of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is often uncomfortable and may carry risks if not performed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detox services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can correctly oversee and present medical supervision for persons 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 making certain the particular person is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The individual 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 rehabilitation facility which can present detox services, the client will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to assure that any difficulties are resolved as quickly and safely as possible.
