Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Lunenburg, MA. are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a duration of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehabilitation typically demands at least a 90 day stay and a much more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the individual abstinent through detoxification in conjunction with a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to fully address everything which might bring about relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in Lunenburg who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
