Stop Smoking

Using a low level laser beam on acupuncture points has a fifteen year proven record, with a high success rate for aiding people to stop smoking.

Excellent controlled medical research has shown how effective laser therapy is, without the side effects of many other costly products on the market. You must want to stop smoking, but if you do, laser therapy will help you.

Cravings, lack of will power and irritability are the three major obstacles to overcome when stopping smoking, and are quite often the main reasons for starting again.

Because it stimulates endorphins (in the same way nicotine does), laser therapy is able to suppress physical cravings and enhance will power, enabling a smoker to quit for good.

As well as laser therapy, clients receive advice and back up support. Each client is also given a personalised strategy which helps avoid relapse, weight gain and the weakening of willpower. Included in the treatment is de-stressing, sweeping over the sinuses and stimulation of blood circulation.

The programme consists of 5 sessions of 45 minutes each over a 14 day period. Three sessions must be consecutive though the course is designed to fit in with your requirements.

The programme is taken over 14 days as that is the period of time the body requires to naturally rebalance its endorphin levels. This is where the laser is most important, reduction in withdrawal symptoms by stimulating high levels of endorphin release.

Blood sugar levels also need to rebalance as nicotine stimulates the adrenal glands to produce excess sugar, which is why we advise you on dietary habits and balance to overcome this possible rollercoaster which can lead to dietary stress.

The treatment is not painful; some clients experience a slight tingling sensation or feelings of warmth, but most feel nothing except for a wonderful, relaxed feeling. Laser therapy is completely safe; it does not cut or burn and has no side effects other than relaxation. Soft, low intensity laser beams have been used for over 40 years to treat a wide variety of conditions from arthritis to soft tissue injuries, and now it is used to help people stop smoking for good.

Most people can have this therapy. A full medical history is taken before any treatment to ensure that no medical reason exists to prevent this successful therapy from going ahead.
