Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Lightfoot, VA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Lightfoot have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
