Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy are the keys to stop smoking.  You can see actor Matt Damon talk about his experience on you tube. By using hypnosis to stop smoking you connect with the part of the mind responsible for creating habits and behaviors.  You can stop right now and I guarantee it.

Read below some of the reasons behind your habit and how to change it!

Some people smoke when they are tense.  Some smoke when they are feeling anxiety. Some desire a cigarette after intimacy. Marriage between two smokers can cause both to continue to smoke unless they can agree to stop together. Many people are addicted to the mechanics of the habit itself, the reaching for a cigarette,the tapping it out of the pack, lighting it and that long first draw – it gives them something to do.  Hypnosis helps to alleviate all of these problems so that you have much fewer triggers to smoke.  With hypnosis to stop smoking you’ll  live longer and feel better.

• Be counseled and have a feeling of accountability. We also cover consequences of stopping smoking such as weight gain and how to continue to be at a healthy weight through the process.
• Experience 3 hypnosis sessions to alleviate the attachment to smoking and the triggers to smoke.
• Receive a customized CD of each of the 3 hypnosis sessions to reinforce the suggestions and give needed stress relief and assistance with relaxation.
• Have an additional session if for any reason you begin smoking again in the first year after becoming a non-smoker.

Another way that we increase our level of success is to only take on clients who are really ready to stop.  We qualify each candidate to assure ourselves and them that the decision is their decision.  In other words the  person’s “want to” needs to be stronger then their “have to”.

We have followed our successful non-smokers for 6 months to 3 years and our success rate is 95%.  The reason our rate of success is so high is due to the fact that we don’t just use hypnosis.  As you see above we incorporate behavior modification techniques as well as an in-depth interview process.
Research Studies:

Clinical hypnosis for smoking cessation: preliminary results of a three-session intervention.

Elkins GR, Rajab MH.

Texas A&M University System Health Science Center College of Medicine, USA.

This study presents preliminary data regarding hypnosis treatment for smoking cessation in a clinical setting. An individualized, 3-session hypnosis treatment is described. Thirty smokers enrolled in an HMO were referred by their primary physician for treatment. Twenty-one patients returned after an initial consultation and received hypnosis for smoking cessation. At the end of treatment, 81% of those patients reported that they had stopped smoking, and 48% reported abstinence at 12 months post treatment. Most patients (95%) were satisfied with the treatment they received. Recommendations for future research to empirically evaluate this hypnosis treatment are discussed.
