Stopping smoking is a challenge you can overcome with the help of Serenity Acupuncture acupuncture treatments. In addition to the psychological aspects of an addiction to nicotine, smoking has a strong physical element which makes it difficult to break the habit permanently.
Even with the very best of intentions, smokers who have a strong urge to stop often give up due to a resistant brain chemistry that responds strongly to nicotine withdrawal. As deadly as it is to wellbeing and health, smoking stimulates certain brain receptors that keep smokers puffing away. When these "feel good" receptors -- also known as neurotransmitters -- are deprived of the habitual dose of smoke, the result is intense cravings that seem insurmountable.
It is estimated that 90 % of smokers want to stop but struggle with an inability to efficiently deal with an altered brain chemistry and the associated mood disorders which occur when quitting a smoking dependence.
Acupuncture works by carefully treating the chosen points on the human body and sends strong signals to the mind to help alleviate cravings. Nicotine withdrawal is secure, effective and drug free using Serenity Acupuncture remedies that also unwind the mind and prevent you from reaching for a cigarette when you are feeling stressed.
Studies published in the American Journal of Medicine declared that smokers who used acupuncture as a way of quitting, were more likely to stay smoke free a year later, compared to those who used other procedures for smoking cessation. Serenity Acupuncture can help the people of Bulverde, Texas become non-smokers in a mean of 3 -- 5 sessions.
