Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Aiken, TX.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Aiken have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
