Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Woodlawn, VA.

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

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Woodlawn offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with individuals who only go through short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
