Detoxification - Woodstock, AL.

Individuals who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is simply the process of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is typically uncomfortable and may carry risks if not executed in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detox services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug treatment facility which can effectively oversee and present medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services typically include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, offering proper nutrition and ensuring the person is receiving proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as needed to make the detox process as easy and safe as possible. The individual in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some form of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug treatment facility which can offer detox services, the person will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to ensure that any complications are fixed as rapidly and safely as possible.
