the following irradiation parameters:
power output: 50Mw
wavelength: 810nm
pulse repetition rate: 20Hz
radiant exposure: 24J/cm2
The acupoints used for treatment were on the ear (Shenmen, Lung, Adrenal, and Addiction points), and on the wrist/hand
Each point was in contact with the laser tip for the duration of one minute. Both the right and left sides of the body were used, making the total treatment time 14 minutes on each visit.
The Power of Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is entirely safe and pain-free. A soft laser beam, applied to specific energy points of your body, stimulates the body’s production of endorphins. These are the natural body chemicals that have a calming, relaxing effect. When you stop smoking, it is primarily the sudden drop in endorphin levels that leads to withdrawal symptoms and physical cravings. Laser therapy will help relieve you of these cravings as well as helping with stress reduction and lung detoxification. The treatment gives you a natural high with a sense of wellbeing, thereby greatly reducing the temptation to take another cigarette. As a result thousands of people have stopped smoking thanks to laser therapy and indicate that it is statistically by far the most effective method of stopping smoking
