Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Union City, TN.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Union City offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
