Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Echo, MN.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Echo offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that people may still be experiencing the beginning 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 timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
