Smoking Cessation

Acupuncture

Quitting smoking is no easy thing to do. But acupuncture may be able to help you.

It provides a safe, drug free alternative to popular nicotine patches or gum, or other drugs such as Zyban, some of which can have serious side effects.

Treatment with acupuncture allows you to safely manage your cravings, but more importantly, helps to rebalance the internal organs which have been affected by smoking - the lungs, the heart, and the kidneys, which are associated with willpower in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Studies have shown that giving something up in a group setting can be more successfull than doing it on your own. Small groups of 6 to 10 participants all receive ear (or 'auricular') acupuncture in a calm, peaceful setting for 50 minutes on 6 consecutive days, with a follow up treatment one week later. All treatments are held in the evenings, from 6.00pm to 7.00pm. Treatment also includes a Support Pack containing supplements, teas, and information.

Courses are held at regular intervals at Star Mountain in Plymouth.
The cost of a course, including 7 treatments and Support Pack is £95 per person.

Places are limited so its vital to book early. Courses will go ahead with a minimum of 6 participants.

Forthcoming Dates:

Monday 17th November to Saturday 22nd November inclusive - nightly at 6.00pm

Monday 12th January to Saturday 17th January inclusive - nightly at 6.00pm
