Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Lynnfield, MA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Lynnfield have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that people may still be experiencing 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 rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
