Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Houghton Lake Heights, MI.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Houghton Lake Heights have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with people who only receive short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
