Our laser can assist you to quit smoking
Our quit smoking therapy uses low level light laser equipment which targets the same points as acupuncture does, but without the needles. Focusing the laser beam on these energy points stimulates the nerve endings and causes your body to release endorphins which help to reduce nicotine craving and withdrawal symptoms.
Endorphins are the natural chemicals in your body that have a calming, relaxing effect. Current medical thinking is that smokers have higher levels of endorphins than non-smokers, which they stimulate artificially by tobacco smoke. When you stop smoking, the sudden drop in endorphin levels leads to withdrawal symptoms and physical cravings. Laser therapy helps address this by generating replacement endorphins. Some laser therapy clients may even report a feeling of euphoria following a smoking cessation treatment with the laser.
Eastern Therapies at Bondi Junction
Eastern Therapies take an integrated approach to healthcare, meaning your low level light therapy will likely not be conducted in isolation. For example, cold laser therapy can actually be used to stimulate acupoints in the same way needles do. This makes it a fantastic way for first-timers to approach acupuncture. This can benefit children and sensitive adults.
