"Coupled with counseling, low-level laser therapy helped him overcome his addiction by altering what his brain thinks about a stick. It took some time before the effect kicked in, but once it did, he felt like he didn't want to see another cigarette stick again. While nicotine drives the body to crave for more of the drug, low-level laser therapy offered at a Toronto laser clinic does the same, i.e., influence the body to desire more of the therapy. The difference is that the laser doesn't do anything harmful. By telling the brain to release endorphins like dopamine without the nicotine present, the body can be satisfied minus the harmful stuff. Experts say low-level laser therapy can help a patient overcome any withdrawal symptoms associated with nicotine for less than a week. If used with addiction counseling therapy, the recovery period may take weeks or months. Think of it as tricking the brain into satisfying the body, but for a healthier cause."

Toronto Laser Clinic: An Innovative Solution to the Habit of Smoking
Smoking causes a plethora of conditions that often end up being fatal not only for the smoker but also to those exposed to secondhand smoke. In fact, the World Health Organization claims that tobacco smoke is responsible for the deaths of about five million people annually. Despite all the anti-smoking awareness campaigns, only a few smokers are willing to visit their local laser clinic in Toronto or resort to any other means to fight their addiction. One main ingredient that keeps smokers from quitting is nicotine. It works by stimulating the brain's pleasure centers, thus releasing a pleasant sensation that can be utterly addictive to a person. In its pure state, nicotine is a super toxin even more lethal than snake venom, yet surprisingly, the human brain permits it to direct the flow of dopamine and about 200 other neurochemicals.
