Struggling to Break Free from Smoking? We’ve Got Your Back!

Have you found yourself caught in the cycle of attempting to quit smoking, only to find it incredibly challenging each time? If you’re nodding in agreement, you’re not alone. Quitting smoking can be a huge struggle, and there isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. For most individuals, it takes multiple attempts before successfully kicking the habit for good.

The decision to quit smoking must stem from your genuine desire to do so, driven by your internal commitment rather than external pressures from friends or family. Mental and emotional readiness plays an important role in this journey.

If you’re currently grappling with the struggle to quit smoking, perhaps it’s time to explore Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT). Here’s why LLLT might be the game-changer you’ve been searching for:

1. Safe, Easy, and Affordable: Laser therapy provides a safe and non-invasive alternative to traditional methods. Unlike acupuncture, it doesn’t involve needles, making it a comfortable experience, not to mention, a cost-effective option.

2. Proven Effectiveness: A couple of recent trials in Scotland have shown that LLLT is ten times more effective than popular alternatives such as patches, gum, or hypnotherapy. The success lies in its ability to address the three primary symptoms associated with withdrawal:

  • Blocking the need for nicotine
  • Reducing stress and anxiety
  • Suppressing your appetite

3. Empowering Self-Success: At Calgary Laserworks, our focus is on empowering individuals to take control of their journey towards a nicotine-free life. We understand that true success comes from within, and we’re here to support you every step of the way.

If you’re ready to break free from the chains of nicotine addiction, why not give us a call today? For more information call us at 403-301-3750. Your healthier, smoke-free future awaits!

 

Exposure to secondhand smoke poses a serious health problem

Inhaling secondhand smoke poses a grave threat to health, extending beyond just smokers. In fact, the impact of secondhand smoke ripples through everyone in your vicinity—children, expectant mothers, individuals with respiratory concerns, family, friends, and colleagues.

Non-smokers exposed to secondhand smoke absorb the same harmful chemicals as smokers. Studies show that even low levels of secondhand smoke exposure can be harmful causing numerous health problems including increasing your risk for lung disease, heart disease, heart attacks and strokes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis), and many life-threatening cancers.

For those who smoke, isn’t it time to bid farewell to this harmful habit? It’s truly never too late. Calgary Laserworks is here to help you succeed. Get in touch today at 403-301-3730.

Vaping has health risks. Period.

Vaping can increase your exposure to chemicals that could harm your health. Not only nicotine, but the vapor contains harmful chemicals and very fine particles that are inhaled into the lungs and exhaled into the environment.

Some of the side effects of vaping are:

  • can lead to lung inflammation (irritation)
  • a cough
  • more dental plaque (which often leads to gum disease)
  • chronic bad breath (halitosis)
  • dry mouth
  • dry eyes
  • dry nasal passages (can lead to nosebleeds)
  • dry skin
  • dizziness
  • Not only all that, it’s expensive!

At Calgary Laserworks we want to help you make healthier choices and to become vape-free. Call 403-301-3730 today to get started.
