Smoking Cessation
“Hypnosis snuffs out the smoker’s fire and desire.” -Newsweek You get the benefit of our experience! When we began our clinic nearly 40 years ago, we established our reputation with smoking cessation. Since then thousands of smokers and other nicotine users like you have been enabled to quit the habit. We use a very unique method of hypnosis for nicotine cessation which is only used in one other office in the world. Not only have we successfully helped thousands of Central New Yorkers to stop smoking in just one session, but we have also attracted clients from throughout the Northeast, and even farther.
Here’s our first recommendation in the Multipronged Approach TM: Plan to take a minimum of four days away from home and work right after smoking cessation visit on your quit date. Have your car packed when you come to see us. If you’re taking a trip, coordinate your travel reservations with us, so that you can leave within a few hours after the end of your smoking cessation appointment. Free Guarantee of Follow-up Visits To demonstrate our confidence in our service and our commitment to help you quit this vicious and deadly habit, we offer free guarantees of follow-up visits in each of our nicotine cessation programs. Of all of the many smoking cessation programs available in Central New York, none that we know of will back up its work in this way. We offer a promise of free rehypnosis visits for up to two years, depending on the level of service you select. That means that you may return every week for free rehypnosis, if you need it. The rehypnosis is currently being done in a small group format. About the Nicotine Patch and Prescription Drugs The patch and the drug approaches were not designed to be stand-alone therapies, but only as adjuncts to treatment. Because we give you nutritional and aromatherapy formulations designed to decrease cravings, we recommend that you do not start with the patches and only acquire them later if you believe you want extra support. The drugs which are currently approved for nicotine cessation have approximately 80% FAILURE RATES as sole treatments. However, if you and your healthcare provider want to use a prescription drug as extra insurance in your multipronged approach at Alternative Hypnosis, we support that decision. The prescription drugs require that you take them for a certain number of days before quitting, depending on the drug. Before beginning your prescription, make sure you have made your appointment with us for the correct quit date, as recommended by your prescribing healthcare provider.

The Weight Question
Many smokers fear that they will put on pounds if they quit. You might be surprised to find that the national average gain after quitting (through all methods) is only five to eight pounds. However, our approach specifically addresses the weight problem. Therefore, as a practical matter, most of our clients do not take on extra pounds. Please understand, though, that we say this to you as a prediction, based on our past experience, and not as a promise. That is, a few of our clients have gained weight after quitting. However, most of them have been able to lose it later. You might also be interested to know that you would have to be approximately 100 pounds overweight to be subject to the same health risks as smoking one pack of cigarettes per day. Read more
