Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Olivette, MO.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Olivette offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages 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 specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among individuals who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
