While long term drug rehab typically demands at least a 90 day stay and a much more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the individual abstinent through detoxification in conjunction with a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues.
