NEW WEAPON IN THE WAR ON NICOTINE ADDICTION:
Can a Laser Help You Quit Smoking?
Story Summary
Approximately 46.5 million adults in the
United States are smokers. For every nicotine-addicted person
attempting to quit, another one starts and the perilous
cycle continues. Now, there's new hope for people battling
nicotine addiction, and it doesn't involve a patch, pill,
or mint-flavored gum. A 30-year-old international laser
technology that virtually eases all withdrawal symptoms
attributed to quitting smoking has finally arrived in the
US.
Already, the FDA has ruled the 30-year-old
low-level laser therapy as a "non-significant" risk. One
patient who has used the laser therapy so far says, "I feel
great, have renewed energy and I have no more cravings or
desires to smoke. It's amazing." This progressive step by
an Institutional Review Board (IRB) makes Freedom Laser
Therapy, Inc. the first full-scale clinic approved to operate
through clinical trials to treat nicotine addiction in the
U.S.
The first office of Freedom Laser
Therapy, Inc. opened in Santa Monica, California. Additional
clinics are scheduled to open in Detroit, Chicago, Ft. Lauderdale,
and Scottsdale by year's end.

Background
Low-Level-Laser Therapy for treatment of
nicotine addiction operates on principles similar to those
used in acupressure point therapy where specific energy
points on the subject's ears, face and hands are stimulated
by a soft laser light. One 30-minute treatment includes
the laser procedure, education on coping with cravings,
withdrawal symptoms, and advice on remaining addiction-free.
International clinical studies have revealed success rates
as high as 85% to permanently end smokers' addictions.
