Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Ellisville, MO.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Ellisville have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only get short term treatment . People who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
