Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Marstons Mills, MA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Marstons Mills have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many individuals may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with clients who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
