Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - South Pasadena, CA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in South Pasadena offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people 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 people may still be in the beginning 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 specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
