We work on three different areas with the treatment.  First, we g the same principle as acupuncture but of course, no needles.  The points that we work on are on the ears (auricular points), nose, hands, wrist, and forearm (meridian points).  It is a very relaxing and pleasant treat points for the addiction to nicotine, to help block your body's need for that drug; second, we treat diet points to help control your appetite and avoid excessive weight gain; and third we treat a lot of stress and relaxation points to help avoid the withdrawal symptoms that you would normally experience if you tried to quit on your own, such as irritability, getting short tempered, etc.  We try to take away all the negative feelings and make it a smooth transition for you.
