Has anyone had laser treatment to quit smoking?

Question

And have you been successful? Would you recommend trying this for a smoker who has been smoking a pack a day for 7 years?

Thank you for all of your informative answers! I am really trying to prepare my mind for quitting and it is the most difficult thing I have ever done!

Answer 1

I had the treatment 2 years ago, I smoked 2packs a day for 20+ years. My husband had the treatment 11/2 years ago, and he smoked 3= packs a day for 39 years. We both were very successful. We had the offer of a free repeat on the treatment that was good for 6 months, but neither of us ever needed it.
Don't think this is a miracle treatment.that it will make you never want to smoke. YOU have to have the true desire and want to kick the habit. There will be plenty of times that you will want to smoke, but the thought passes and you forget about it.
I was able to be around any one who smoked, and never had the urge to cheat.
I bought my husband hard candy to replace a smoke, and told him he had to not smoke until the amount that we paid for the laser treatment, was how long we would have taken to spend that amount on cigarettes. Then set your goal for what you will buy when the money you spent on cigarettes, is still in your checkbook ! We bought a new boat, and paid cash !
If you want it to work.it really does ! Good Luck

I have a friend that used laser treatment with much success, and my mother who it was not. She however had accupuncter to aid her ability to quit smoking and is now a year and a half. I quit cold with the help of empowered stones and a lot of prayers to the Angels. If you are serious about quitting, then any method should help you along the way. My best advice - and what I used - is to carry rosery beads, stones, beads - anything like that - with you to play with while you're having a craving. If you can keep your mind focused on playing with those beads for two minutes - then you can make it through the "nic fit". And FYI - I smoked for 23 years, a pack to a pack and a half a day and watched my father lose his life in 6 months from lung cancer (also a smoker). So the incentive is there. Good luck and know that quitting now will make you feel so great later!

What The Laser Treatment To Stop Smoking Is The laser treatment to stop smoking mimics the use of acupuncture as an aid for quitting nicotine; it consists of a half-hour session during which a pulses from a light “cool” laser which emits no more energy than a 60-watt light bulb are applied to the smoker’s ear lobe.

The theory underlying the laser treatment to stop smoking is that the laser pulses will stimulate the brain to begin producing endorphins--natural pain killers. The endorphins are claimed to both reduce nicotine cravings and alleviate nicotine withdrawal symptoms for three days following the laser treatment to stop smoking. During period the smoker will go through the worst part of withdrawal, and by the time the effects of the laser treatment have subsided, the smoker will be well on his or her way to success.

The endorphins are said to replace nicotine in the brains’ nicotine receptors, so that they cannot start the cigarette craving cycle. The laser treatment to stop smoking is also claimed to restore the balance between the smoker’s physical and mental energies. The body’s release of endorphins produces a heightened sense of relaxed well-being, helping the smoker avoid any feelings of anxiety which might normally lead him or her to light up.

Paying For A Laser Treatment To Stop Smoking The laser treatment to stop smoking is not, however, considered a medical treatment and will not be covered by health insurance. The price for a laser treatment to stop smoking can run as much as $349 for a half-hour laser application session, video, and vitamin supplements claimed to detoxify the body of the harmful substances it has accumulated from smoking. Various practitioners of the laser treatment to stop smoking each have their own programs so you should research you options.

If you’ve tried other smoking cessation techniques only to return to cigarettes after a while, the laser treatment to stop smoking might be the one which finally works!

I've never heard of laser therapy. However Hypnotherapy is meant to be effective. It takes around 3 sessions, and costs around AU$80 per session, which is worth it if you add up the amount you spend on cigarettes. I'm going to give it a shot, I really want to quit smoking aswell. Best of Luck.

Answer 5

No history of laser treatment successful in this issue. this is all about your mind.
I give you a very good and proven idea to leave smoking.
If you can do it you can do any thing just try it for 3 day only.

1.Purchase a pack of Cig.(your fevourit Brand)
2.Don't open it & put it in your pocket. when you want to smoke just bring it out from your pocket & see it at least 2min then put it in you pocket again. only first day you feel prob. then slowly you are feeling good after putting it in your pocket. then better,cost effective & a Proven way to leave it.
Regards.
