Stop Smoking with Laser Therapy

How does it Work? Theralase Lasers use light energy to stimulate specific acupuncture points, or energy points, related to the lungs, brain and autonomic nervous system. When you stop smoking the chemical messengers that have been sent to your brain due to nicotine intake are removed and withdrawal symptoms result. Our laser treatments are effective at stimulating the appropriate acu points that help re-balance the brain chemistry thus avoiding unwanted symptoms of withdrawal and promoting feelings of relaxation. Laser treatments Reduce Withdrawal Symptoms Laser Therapy stimulates the release of the body's natural calming and pain reducing substances - endorphins. These endorphins replace the nicotine-triggered endorphins to which smokers are addicted. The endorphins that are released as a result of this treatment are longer lasting, and greatly reduce symptoms, irritability and cravings that are normally associated with smoking cessation. They also commonly assist in sleeping, stress reduction and give the client a general sense of well being. Decreased Desire to Smoke Laser therapy often causes a change in taste thresholds or the perceived taste of tobacco. The taste of smoke generally becomes less desirable and even objectionable, lowering the overall desire to continue smoking. Stop smoking programs Our stop smoking programs are comprised of three 30-60 minute sessions. These sessions include laser therapy, nutritional guidance to detoxify the body of nicotine, and advice to help clients cope with the habit of smoking. Generally, one visit is all that is required to remove the addiction. However to ensure long term results, we recommend attending a second treatment 2 days later and a third treatment 2-4 weeks later. Although results are not guaranteed, success rates are very high. More than half of patients completing the program will quit smoking and be on their way to improved health.
