What is Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)? Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a light therapy that works on specific energy points on the body. It has been used successfully to treat many kinds of musculoskeletal injuries to promote healing and tissue repair. LLLT has been extremely successful for the treatment of smoking cessation, weight management and pain mangement with the application of a 'cold' laser light to the ears, face, hands, and wrists. How Does LLLT Work for Smoking Cessation? Smoking produces higher-than-normal levels of endorphins. Attempts to stop smoking result in the sudden drop of endorphin levels, giving the smoker withdrawal symptoms of stress, tension, and anxiety. LLLT stimulates the body to release endorphins, which are natural chemicals in the body associated with the spontaneous relief of stress and pain. Will I Have Withdrawal Symptoms? No. By stimulating the body's pressure points using the laser beam, the endorphins are increased in the body, thereby reducing cravings and other withdrawal symptoms. Is LLLT Therapy Safe? Yes. LLLT is a safe, painless, medication-free treatment. It has been used successfully for more than 30 years in Canada, China, France, and the United Kingdom with no documented adverse side effects. How Long Does the Treatment Take? Treatment only takes about 30 minutes and includes education on nicotine addiction and instructions on how to help you deal with the emotional, physical, and psychological aspects of quitting smoking. |

How Much Does It Cost? The price of a few cartons of cigarettes. More importantly, the savings to you by quitting smoking when you consider the cost of smoking 20 cigarettes a day over a year's time, you would save up to $1,500 and you would be in better health…priceless! Nicotine Addiction—What Is It? When you smoke a cigarette, you are inhaling a complex set of elements, including gases and tars. Nicotine seems to aid in concentration, as well as relaxation. Nicotine is one of the most addictive drugs, and smoking cigarettes and other nicotine products is directly associated with increased risk of serious chronic health problems, including lung and respiratory diseases, as well as cancer. What Is in Cigarettes? We are all concerned about the alarming number of additives, colorings, preservatives, and other ingredients in our food, but how many actually worry or know about what is in cigarettes or what is produced when they are smoked? In fact, some cigarette flavorings include childhood favorites such as cocoa, vanilla, sugar, and honey. There are more than 4,000 chemicals found in cigarette smoke. The most notorious are: Tar • Nicotine • Carbon Monoxide • Ammonia • Acetone Cadmium • Vinyl Chloride • Naphthalene • Cyanide Formaldehyde • Arsenic |
