Treatment Protocol
THE SMOKING CESSATION PROGRAMME involves the client receiving the Laser Therapy treatment over four visits. On the first day the client will receive a comprehensive consultation followed by their first laser treatment. Two further treatments and assessments will be scheduled and a fourth treatment will be available after fourteen days, although this may be deferred, dependant on the individual clients requirements.
Guidance and advice must be given to all clients prior to and during their treatments and is absolutely critical to their success. When stopping smoking, it is the sudden drop in endorphin levels that is the primary cause leading to withdrawal symptoms and physical cravings. The Laser Therapy treatment stimulates the body’s production of endorphins giving a natural high with a sense of wellbeing, thereby helping to relieve the client of these cravings as well as helping with stress reduction and lung detoxification. Clients could experience different degrees of withdrawal symptoms, and need to be shown how to manage the changes in their lifestyles and their associations to cigarettes, handling the stress of stopping smoking, dealing with any withdrawal symptoms that may occur and encouraging them to achieve a healthier lifestyle.
THE WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAMME is designed to fit in with your client’s lifestyle and consists of a one hour treatment followed by 3 treatments of 30 minutes at weekly intervals. This will assist clients in losing weight by managing their expectations, improving their overall sense of well being and enabling them to take control over their changing lifestyle. Clients should see a decrease in their appetite, and a reduction in both their food cravings and stress which should then result in an improvement in their fitness and self control. Back up support is offered in the form of extra sessions. Each programme is tailored to meet the requirements of the individual client.
THE STRESS MANAGEMENT PROGRAMME consists of single sessions, each lasting for up to one hour. The laser treatments within this programme help to promote a feeling of well-being, resulting in a reduction in anxiety levels and mood swings which can result in an improvement in the client’s sleeping patterns.
