Quit smoking with Acupuncture

Acupuncture helps to permanently quit the habit of smoking by reducing craving & withdrawal symptoms. It has no side effects & enhances overall health.

The treatments consist of a combination of ear & body points, which are part of the National Acupuncture Detoxification Association (NADA) protocol (insert link here -www.acudetox.com) which was founded in 1985 to promote the integration of the protocol in the treatment of addiction.

A typical cessation program consists of 5-6 treatments given in the first few weeks followed by a monthly treatment for the next 4-6 months. The number, length & frequency of treatments may vary from person to person & although it has been observed that although some symptoms are relieved after the first treatment, chronic symptoms require more treatment sessions.
