Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Martinsburg, OH.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Martinsburg offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many clients 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 treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
