Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Timberville, VA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Timberville offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while 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 alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
