Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Amherst, MA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Amherst offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab facility is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with individuals who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
