What We Do
And How We Do It
Innovative Medicine was the pioneer of the nation's very first acupuncture and light therapy stop smoking procedure. We are the only facility that combines acupuncture and light therapy as part of our program. The success rates of 85% have never before seen before. To date, Innovative Medicine has treated over 2800 individuals, and assisted twenty-two companies in formulating a successful stop-smoking program.
The combination of these two time tested practices provides a powerful treatment to help eliminate nicotine cravings.
Acupuncture has demonstrated a specific quit smoking benefit, helping to lessen withdrawal symptoms, including restlessness, lack of concentration, irritability, depression, and weight gain.
The light procedure allows the practitioner to stimulate points on the body enabling the patient to switch-off the craving triggers and lessen withdrawl symptoms.
The best means to quit the nicotine addiction begins with making the mental commitment and coming to the office to take part in this successful program.
Summary of the 90 Minute Procedure
Acupuncture is the first treatment to be administered as the patient is allowed to relax for 30 minutes. The procedure is virtually painless and is comforting. Once the needles are removed the Light therapy is preformed over many acupuncture points where nicotine, weight control, stress, cravings, and appetite control can actively be stimulated. This procedure takes about thirty minutes to complete and is soothing and relaxing.
