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 rehabilitation facility that works for everybody. North Fort Myers has many various types of rehab programs, each directed toward different kinds of patients. The most common types of rehab centers offered in North Fort Myers are inpatient and outpatient programs, traditional treatments, holistic drug rehabs, and religious treatments of addiction. Each different type of treatment provides a variety of benefits to different kinds of patients.
North Fort Myers's inpatient drug rehab programs can be considered a gold standard of drug rehab. These programs are the most comprehensive type of rehab center offered and they can handle the issues encompassing withdrawal and detox, as well as any mental and emotional issues such as anxiety and depression that commonly occur with addiction.
Inpatient rehabilitation is particularly helpful for individuals who've been suffering with long term addiction, though 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 enable the patient to continue going to work or school, but due to the fact the program is outpatient 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 rehabilitation programs are therefore recommended more for individuals who have short-term addictions as well as for patients who have already finished an inpatient rehabilitation program and just need support for their recovery.
Traditional treatment programs are usually based on the 12 step approach and traditions. Given that 12 step meetings are free, universal, and based in the community, many people find that starting their recovery process with one of these programs can be helpful. Different traditional treatment programs have different ideas. Some concentrate on just the 12-step ideology, while others integrate different elements of treatment. Patients benefit most from these programs when they attend meetings on a daily basis.
Holistic treatment programs are usually inpatient programs that involve the whole spectrum of treatment approaches, from 12-step ideology, psychological treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy, medical care, to alternative therapy like yoga and acupuncture. These programs tend to focus on whole body health and good nutrition as well as strategies of improving emotional health. These programs have been proven to be extremely effective in the long term.
Religious drug rehabilitation programs integrate a heavy emphasis on religiously-oriented spiritual health and healing, 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 believe in a particular religion and feel that going back to their religious roots would help with treating their addiction. North Fort Myers is home to a number of different religiously oriented drug treatment programs. The majority of Christian drug rehabs tend to incorporate the 12 step method due to its belief in the influence of a "higher power".
