Relaxation Therapy including Laser and Reiki Treatments

Laser Therapy

Laser Therapy is a well-established therapeutic technique with a wide range of medical applications. The Anne Penman method utilizes a cold, soft laser beam which is applied to specific energy points on the hands, ears, nose and, wrists. When you stop smoking, a sudden drop in endorphin levels leads to withdrawal symptoms of stress and tension.

Our procedure helps to promote the release of endorphins, natural chemicals in the body associated with the spontaneous relief of pain and stress. When using the Anne Penman Laser Therapy method, clients experience a soothing feeling of well-being.

Laser treatment can help reduce cravings, stress, and restore balance.
The laser acts as a calming agent so that when you stop smoking, the withdrawal symptoms often associated with quitting are either greatly reduced or completely eliminated.

Counselling

Counselling focuses on self-belief and positive thinking. We help you deal with the emotional, physical and psychological aspects of quitting smoking.
 
Workshops

Workshops will include advice and tools for life style change, address the issues
the role smoking plays in your life, when and where you smoke, the factors that lead you to smoke and your dependency level.

We will offer you a nicotine addiction test to help you understand your level of addiction and a carbon monoxide test to measure the amount of carbon monoxide currently in your lungs and blood stream.

We use the carbon monoxide monitor as a motivational tool to help track your success.

The retreat will provide the opportunity to overcome many of the fears associated with being a non-smoker. Experiencing your first evening; first morning; first day and first weekend as a non-smoker able to relax and enjoy socialising and having fun!
