How Quit Smoking Laser Therapy Works

Low-level laser therapy for smoking cessation operates on principles similar to the 5,000 year old ancient Asian healing art of Acupuncture. Acupuncture is known to reduce tension, increase circulation, and enable the body to relax more deeply.

After 35 years of use internationally in Europe and Canada low-level laser for nicotine addiction is available through clinical research trials in the United States. Low-level laser is being studied to see if it promotes the release of endorphins in the body. Endorphins are natural chemicals in your body that signal your system to decrease stress and increase energy.

Freedom uses a low-powered (soft) laser no more powerful than a light bulb. Laser is applied to energy points related to addiction. The Laser Therapy procedure is external, non-invasive, drug free, and non-thermal.

During the laser session energy is applied to points on your hands, face, wrist, and ears. If a client feels the sensation from the low-level laser, they may feel a warm, pulsating and sometimes-tingling feeling.

Doctors - Freedom will work with you to inform your patients about our clinical research trial to quit smoking. The low-level laser is being studied to see if it assists the client through the initial physical withdrawal from nicotine by boosting endorphin production, which aids in alleviating the stress associated with giving up nicotine. The first 72 hours of quitting is considered to be the crucial period.

This clinical trial is being conducted to gather more information on the effectiveness of low-level laser for nicotine addiction. Institutional Review Boards exist to supervise clinical research trials, as a measure to ensure human study subjects are handled in a safe & ethical manner. The FDA has ruled low-level lasers as “non-significant risk” devices and the clinical research trials are being funded through patient participation. Freedom Laser Therapy is one of the nation's first full-scale nicotine addiction clinics conducting this research study to collect more information on the efficacy of low-level laser for smoking cessation.
