How Acupuncture Works
Our program works on five different levels to help you stop smoking:
FIRST, acupuncture reduces your body’s craving for nicotine. Acupuncture changes body chemistry, breaking the physical addiction to nicotine. This component is essential if you want to stop smoking.
SECOND, it builds your willpower to quit. Acupuncture reduces stress and increases your resolve to stop smoking. As you know, trying to quit triggers stress, frustration, irritation, and anger. Acupuncture reverses these feelings as they arise.
THIRD, acupuncture makes cigarettes taste bad. Be sure you’re ready to quit before you get acupuncture. Otherwise, you will be annoyed. Smoking won’t be enjoyable after you start treatment. But that’s a big help if you genuinely want to quit.
FOURTH, acupuncture boosts your metabolism, so you won’t gain 20 pounds when you stop smoking. Weight gain is a big problem for people who quit. Acupuncture will help you avoid this.
FIFTH, the Raleigh Acupuncture Stop Smoking Program strengthens your lungs, which need to heal after years of damage and abuse. Acupuncture starts this process by nourishing your lungs as they prepare to recover from years of smoking.
What To Expect
All needles are sterile, single-use, and hair-thin. Acupuncture promotes healing while bringing on a deep sense of relaxation. Many of our patients fall asleep during treatment. The program consists of three to six sessions, depending on how much support you need.
The Raleigh Acupuncture stop smoking program can make the difference between success and failure. It is a 100% natural, affordable, safe therapy that helps you stop smoking and get healthy at the same time. You owe it to yourself to try acupuncture and quit smoking for good.
Recent Stop Smoking Case
A 42-year-old man came to our clinic for smoking cessation. He had stopped a while ago, but his new job was highly stressful. The next thing he knew, he was smoking again. His wife and children wanted him to stop, and he did too – but was struggling.
Our intake exam confirmed that stress was the root issue of his smoking problem. Our patient’s pulse was strong and wiry, indicating that his body held on to external stressors. When stress internalizes, it causes physical and emotional discomfort. He was smoking to help relieve tension – and it did help, but with a high cost. So he needed to find a healthier way to manage stress.
The key to quitting smoking was to get his body to stop internalizing stress. Specific acupuncture points promote energy (Qi) circulation. Just as we need good blood circulation, we also need sufficient Qi flow. Our patient’s work stress was stagnating his Qi. While smoking got his Qi moving, it also damaged his lungs.
His treatment included three strategies. First, we applied the NADA protocol, which comprises five needles in each ear. These points reduce nicotine addiction. Second, we used acupoints LV3, LI4, and LI11 to boost his Liver function, which is the best way to circulate Qi, especially when stress is a factor. Third, we strengthened his metabolism, so he would not start replacing cigarettes with sweets.
The treatments worked – within four sessions, he completely stopped smoking. A six-month follow-up revealed he was still smoke-free.

What our Clients are Saying
I was smoking a pack a day when I started acupuncture. Within two weeks I was down to a single cigarette in the morning. I told them I didn’t want to give up the last cigarette and they said, no problem. It’s been three months and I’m still just smoking one cigarette a day. I can live with that. They didn’t try to push me or make me feel bad. They just met me where I was. I appreciate that. I recommend Raleigh Acupuncture as a practice. They are good.
I thought I would smoke cigarettes forever, until my doctor gave me the ultimatum. Tried cold turkey. No go. Tried the patch. Ditto. Just about gave up trying when my cousin dragged me to acupuncture. I won’t lie to you and say it was easy, but on the other hand I am convinced there is not a single other thing in this world that could have got me off cigarettes. That’s the honest truth. I’m sure now something else is gonna kill me, but at least it won’t be smokes!
I stopped smoking from going to Raleigh Acupuncture. The treatments were comfortable. They put needles in my ears that took away the cravings. I went from 10 cigarettes a day to 2 in the first week. It took another week to go to zero cigarettes. There’s no way I could have stopped without this. I tried the patch and welbutrin before, but it didn’t work. The acupuncture actually made the cigarettes taste bad to me. I never thought that would happen. These guys are good. If you’re a smoker and can’t quit, try acupuncture with them. It really works.
