Hypnotherapy has a very high success rate:

 

“It is the most effective way of giving up smoking, according to the largest ever scientific comparison of ways of breaking the habit.”

New Scientist v136.

​

In 1992, New Scientist Magazine published the results of an extensive clinical study on the most effective methods of quitting smoking.

 

By statistically combining the results of more than 600 studies (over 72,000 individual cases) their analysis indicated that single session hypnosis* increased a smoker’s success chance by 1000% from 6% to 60%.

 

The study indicated the following success rates for four different quitting methods:

​

  • 60% – Single session Hypnosis

  • 24% – Acupuncture

  • 10% – Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT)

  •   6% – Willpower Alone

Quit Smoking Hypnosis

Why quit smoking?
 

  • It is never too late to stop.

  • Every form of smoking, including smoking marijuana, causes lung damage, which will often not become evident until later in life.

  • It is estimated that after the age of 35-40 years, smokers lose 3 months of life expectancy for each year of smoking.

  • Non smokers are happier people in the long term.

  • Nicotine narrows your blood vessels thus decreasing blood and oxygen flow.

  • Nicotine also increases the amount of deposits that build up on the inside walls of your arteries. This increases your blood pressure and can lead to chronic blood clots. High blood pressure and blocked arteries are both high risk factors for heart disease and stroke.

♦ Some people smoke to relieve stress; or as a reward; or to relax.
