There may not be a simple cure for drug addiction and alcoholism, but medical professionals are sure of one thing: there's no such thing as an one-size-fits-all drug rehab program that works for everybody. Canon City has some different types of rehab programs, each suited to different types of patients. The most popular types of rehabs offered in Canon City are inpatient and outpatient programs, traditional treatments, holistic drug rehabs, and religious based treatments of addiction. Each different kind of treatment offers a variety of advantages to different kinds of patients.
Canon City's inpatient alcohol and drug treatment programs can be considered a gold standard of drug rehab. These programs are the most thorough form of rehab center available and they can deal with the issues surrounding detox and withdrawal, as well as any psychiatric issues such as anxiety and depression that commonly occur with addiction.
Inpatient treatment is especially beneficial for individuals who've been struggling with long term addiction, though even shorter-term addicts may find that a 30 day stay is enough to fully address the problem and fully recover.
Outpatient rehab centers allow the patient to continue going to school or to work, but since the program is done on an outpatient basis it's easier for the patient to relapse. Detoxification services as well as support with psychological and medical problems have to be separately addressed with an outpatient rehab program.
Outpatient treatment centers are therefore recommended more for people who have short-term addictions as well as for people who have already finished an inpatient rehab program and just need support for their recovery.
Traditional treatments are usually based on the 12 step approach and traditions. Because 12 step meetings are free, universal, and based in the community, many patients find that starting their recovery process with one of these programs is very helpful. Different traditional treatment programs have different principles. Some concentrate on just the 12-step ideology, while others incorporate different aspects of therapy. Patients benefit most from these programs when they attend meetings every day.
Holistic rehab programs are most commonly inpatient programs that involve the whole spectrum of treatment approaches, from 12-step ideology, psychological treatment, medical care, to alternative therapy like yoga and acupuncture. These programs have a tendency to concentrate on whole body health and good nutrition as well as methods of improving emotional health. These programs have been proven to be extremely effective in the long term.
Religious drug rehab centers integrate a heavy emphasis on religiously-oriented spiritual healing and health, as well as the medical and therapeutic options of holistic and traditional drug treatment programs. They can be helpful with people who were raised to believe in a particular religion and feel that going back to their religious roots would help with treating their addiction. Canon City is home to a number of different religiously oriented drug rehab programs. Most Christian drug rehab programs have a tendency to incorporate the 12 step method due to its belief in the influence of a "higher power".
