CALL IT QUITS! – A Smoking Cessation Program

This smoking cessation program uses acupuncture to break the physical addiction to nicotine and promote detoxification of the body. Participants will understand the physical and psychological nature of nicotine addiction and nutritional supplements will be recommended in order to facilitate the detoxification process.

 

The acupuncture treatment involves the insertion of very fine needles. The needles are sterilized and disposable being used only once and discarded. There is nothing injected into the body, the needles are placed in specific points that produce the desired effects. The acupuncture treatment will help end the physical dependence for nicotine by breaking the cycle of vascular changes that the nicotine produces. It will also stimulate the detoxification of nicotine from the body.

 

The entire program, which includes an introductory lecture to explain the program and the acupuncture treatment will take approximately 1½ hours. Some insurance companies will reimburse patients for smoking cessation programs, we suggest that you check with your insurance carrier. Insurance statements are provided.
