There may not be an easy absolute cure for drug addiction and alcoholism, but medical professionals are certain of one thing: there's no such thing as an one-size-fits-all drug treatment center that works for everyone. Old Orchard Beach has several various types of rehab programs, each directed toward different kinds of patients. The most popular kinds of rehabs available in Old Orchard Beach are inpatient and outpatient programs, traditional treatments, holistic drug rehabs, and religious treatments of addiction. Each distinct type of rehabilitation provides a variety of benefits to different kinds of patients.
Old Orchard Beach's inpatient treatment centers can be regarded as a gold standard of drug rehab. These programs are the most extensive type of rehab center offered and they can address the issues of detox and withdrawal, as well as any mental and emotional issues such as depression and anxiety that commonly occur with addiction.
Inpatient treatment is particularly beneficial for people who've been living with long term addiction, although even shorter-term addicts may find that a 30 day stay is enough to fully address the problem and get a new start.
Outpatient rehab centers allow the patient to keep going to work or school, but since the program is outpatient it's easier for the patient to relapse. Detox facilities as well as assistance with psychological and medical problems have to be separately addressed with an outpatient rehab program.
Outpatient rehab programs are therefore suggested more for individuals who have short-term addictions as well as for patients who have completed an inpatient rehab program and just need support for their recovery.
Traditional treatment programs are usually based on the 12 step programs and traditions. Because 12 step meetings are free, universal, and based in the community, many people feel that starting their recovery process with one of these programs is very beneficial. Different traditional treatment programs have different ideas. Some focus on just the 12-step approach, while others incorporate different aspects of therapy. Patients benefit most from these programs when they attend meetings on a daily basis.
Holistic treatment programs are typically inpatient programs that incorporate the whole spectrum of treatment options, from 12-step ideology, psychological treatment, medical care, to alternative therapy like yoga and acupuncture. These programs tend to focus on whole body health and good nutrition as well as approaches of improving psychological and emotional health. These programs have been proven to be incredibly effective in the long term.
Religious drug treatment centers incorporate a heavy emphasis on religiously-oriented spiritual healing and health, as well as the medical and therapeutic options of holistic and traditional drug rehab programs. They can be helpful with people who were brought up to have faith in a particular religion and feel that going back to their religious roots would help with treating their addiction. Old Orchard Beach is home to a number of different religiously oriented drug rehab programs. The majority of Christian drug rehab programs tend to incorporate the 12 step approach due to its belief in the influence of a "higher power".
