By Steven Sonmore L. Ac. | January 4, 2007
In order to assist you in quitting cigarette smoking, your acupuncturist will work on 7 essential strategies:
- Detoxification: Detoxifyng your organs that are the most affected by smoking such as the lugs, heart, liver, kidneys, and nervous system.
- Withdrawal symptoms: Eliminating the troublesome side effects of withdrawal.
- Cravings: Reducing, if not eliminating the cravings for nicotine.
- Strengthening the willpower: Allows you to tap into your inner strength to resist the temptation to smoke.
- Strengthening the Lungs: Build up your lung energies which have been damaged by smoking.
- Removing stagnation and heat from the Lungs: These are the byproducts of smoking and create an obstruction to the healing of the lungs if not addressed.
- Emotions: Helps one deal with the emotional roots of her/his tobacco cravings.
