Testimonials

I am just coming up on my one month anniversary since my first of two
treatments. I have been a pack-a-day smoker for almost 50 years, so I
thought it was going to be an issue with quitting. I have tried
numerous times in the past to quit, without success.

I cannot say enough about the success of my laser treatments! I have
to admit that I was very skeptible in the beginning, so I tested the
system. I had cigarettes left over, so I left in the car and
encouraged smoker friends to light up when we travelled together.
Guess what? Although I enjoyed the smell of the smoke, I had no desire
to light up one for myself. My biggest issues with smoking were when
on the computer, or watching TV. I did not change those habits one
iota, to see if I was going to need the third treatment. So far, no
problem.

My biggest personal issue was changing the habit of having something
to do with my hands, now that I have successfully overcome my
addiction and craving for nicotine.

If you need some incentive to overcome those infrequent moments of
the "hands" habit; do as I did. It may help you. Each week I put the
money for the price of a carton of cigarettes in a jar, and watch it
grow. My next deposit later this week will bring my total up to just
under $300 for the month since I quit. I now find those infrequent
moments easier to deal with when I look at that jar.

Have some mints handy, or preferably some non-fattening item to munch
on for a few moments, to give your hands something to do. I chose
jellybeans, and now have to lose some excess weight that I gained from
the sugar. However, I'll take a little extra weight, over the deadly
nicotine anytime.

Laser Therapy

stones HomeThis program is a safe and effective method that allows you to immediately stop smoking. There is no pain, no drugs or pills to take and no side effects.

Laser therapy works on the same principle as acupuncture, but without needles. By stimulating certain acupuncture and trigger points in your body, signals are sent to your nervous System  that release chemicals into your muscles, spinal cord and brain. These parts of your body will release other chemicals and hormones into your bloodstream, such as endorphins and encephalin, which influence your body’s own internal regulating system.

These “naturally” occurring chemicals and hormones will help you to quit smoking once and for all.

During the last three decades, laser therapy has become a very effective tool in the treatment of addictions, pain, stress and weight loss.

Massage Therapy

massage HomeMassage therapy is the systematized manipulation of soft tissues for the purpose of normalizing them. Practitioners use a variety of physical methods including applying fixed or movable pressure, holding, or causing movement to the body. Therapists primarily use their hands, but may also use their forearms, elbows, or feet.

The basic goal of massage therapy is to help the body heal itself and to increase health and well-being.

Touch is the core ingredient of massage therapy and also combines science and art. Practitioners learn specific techniques for massage and use their sense of touch to determine the  right amount of pressure to apply to each person and locate areas of tension and other soft-tissue problems. Touch also conveys a sense of caring, an important component in the healing relationship.

When muscles are overworked, waste products such as lactic acid can accumulate in the muscle, causing soreness, stiffness, and even muscle spasm.

Massage improves circulation, which increases blood flow, bringing fresh oxygen to body tissues. This can assist the elimination of waste products, speed healing after injury, and enhance recovery from disease.

Therapeutic massage can be used to promote general well-being and enhance self-esteem, while boosting the circulatory and immune systems to benefit blood pressure, circulation, muscle tone, digestion, and skin tone. It has been incorporated into many health systems, and different massage techniques have been developed and integrated into various complementary therapies.
