So you’ve decided to quit smoking or maybe you are just thinking about it. Either way, the time to quit is now. The health risks associated with smoking can be deadly. Society is changing and making it more and more inconvenient to smoke in public while many insurance companies offer lower rates for non smokers, not to mention the cost of cigarettes! What about your loved ones? Most smokers have had a child, sibling or spouse encourage them to quit.

Although it is not easy to quit, there is help. The Health Centers offers a smoking cessation program using ARICULAR THERAPY. Aricular therapy is a small electrical current that is produced by a Medical Electro acupuncture machine. This current is used to stimulate a point in the ear to control nicotine cravings. The first three days are the most difficult while you are eliminating nicotine intake, however, most patients report their cravings are minimal to none with the help of aricular therapy. Treatment is quick and easy, with a 82% to 94% success rate. In most cases you only need 1 treatment to help you quit. If you are smoking more than 1 pack per day you may need re treatment.. If that is the case, call immediately for re treatment, this will insure your success rate.

Aricular therapy was developed as a treatment for smoking cessation in the early 1950's. UCLA scientists found that applying a small electrical stimulus to the outer ear would practically eliminate nicotine cravings. This treatment has an extremely high success rate and helped patients to stop smoking for good with little or no withdrawal.

Even if you’ve tried other methods or programs, we urge you to try aricular therapy.
