Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Owens Cross Roads, AL.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Owens Cross Roads have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab center is that many clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

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