Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Melbourne, FL.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Melbourne offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that many clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among clients who only go through short term rehab . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
