Hello again, Mark and Melissa.

 

All I can say is "Thank you"...

I was a smoker ever since I was 13 years old (I'm 48 now), and grew tired of being sick, short of breath, foul smelling, and generally feeling lousy all the time due to smoking cigarettes.

 

It was pure luck (or perhaps divine intervention in this case) that my wife stumbled upon the Healing Laser Clinics website. Her discovery has literally changed my life. She read all of the information and got interested in what she saw there, so she forwarded the link to me. I made an appointment for Saturday, January 20th to meet with you and try the Low Level Laser Therapy method to quit smoking.

 

In 45 minutes, you saved my life.

 

It is now Saturday, January 27th, 2007. I have not had a cigarette since the treatment, and I have no desire to smoke whatsoever. This is hard to believe coming from a person that smoked 2 packs a day only one week ago..Nothing..Nada..ZIP..No bad cravings, no irritability, no side effects AT ALL..It is a true miracle as far as I am concerned.

 

I had tried literally EVERY method to quit smoking in the past. Gums, lozenges, patches, prescriptions, hypnosis, and cold turkey....Nothing worked. Healing Laser Clinics WORKS !!! It's Low Level Laser worked in 45 minutes for me. Mark provided me with great counciling, determining why I wanted to quit, helping me to discover the "triggers" that made me want to smoke, and Melissa provided a gentle, reassuring touch as she worked her magic with the Laser as she gave me the treatment.

 

You have truly given me the chance to see my grandchildren grow up, to breathe easier, and to finally get a good nights' sleep. Thank you for giving me my life back.

Feel free to use me as a reference.

Update from Roger after 9 Months

 

Hi Mark and Melissa

Just an update from your buddy up here in Leesburg...9 months later and I am STILL smoke free and feeling great. Your treatment is a true miracle, and I have recommended Healing Laser Clinic to quite a few people in hope to share this magic that you do for people.

God Bless you...

Roger E. Danforth Sr.

Healing Laser Clinics,

I work in a high stress job, in a high stress environment, and was smoking about a pack to a pack and a 1/2 a day. For the last year or so I would feel a bit winded after climbing only 2 flights of stairs.

I have also realized that my state of health is not what it was 10 years ago, so I decided it was time to stop letting cigarettes control my life, and start getting healthy again.

I went to healing laser clinics because I have already tried quitting cold turkey, and on nicotine gum, and neither really worked for me. I was having cravings that were too strong for me to ignore, even though I wanted to quit.

I decided to try cold laser therapy, because 3 people I know quit using this same treatment, and had similar habits to mine. Their success has been my inspiration, and success for quitting. 

It costs less than hypnosis, and the patch, and most people I know that have had hypno have gone back to being smokers.

I cannot believe how easy it's been to quit with this treatment. I've been smoking for 23 years, and after 1 treatment, I tossed my leftover cigarettes without hesitation. 

I would have gladly quit long ago, if only it was this easy. If I can quit in my environment, then anybody can quit.

Melissa, Mark, and Ken;

 

We arrived at your clinic on June 23rd of this year knowing we needed and wanted to quit smoking, but not sure of what to expect.

 

With Healing Laser Clinic therapy treatment and your encouragement we are proud to tell you we have continued smoke free for almost 6 months.

 

We have and would recommend your clinic to anyone who is considering quitting smoking, even couples.

 

 

Thank you for helping us,

Mark and Melissa,

I must admit that I was very skeptical about your program and thought it was just another hype and I'd be back to smoking again.  I feel great, have no desire whatsoever to smoke again. 

I am so glad I met the both of you.  I will highly recommend you to everybody who has tried to quit smoking without success.  People, this is a very successful program, your cravings are diminished immediately.

DL, Lake Mary

 

Melissa,

I am smoke free -- for the first time in over 20 years after smoking a pack and a half a day.  It's funny -- my son has never seen me not smoke.  He's proud of me and I'm proud of me.  I sometimes can't remember when I did smoke but I am so happy I don't have that ball and chain around me anymore.  I never thought about it much, but the freedom of not having to find a place to go have a smoke when I'm at the mall, or out to dinner, or at a movie.  It's unbelievable.  Thank you Melissa for your support and for the treatment.  I am so glad I did it and I have referred many of my friends and co-workers.  The people I work with can't believe it -- they've always seen me smoke.  Thank you again -- for adding years to my life and life to my years.

Dear Mark and Melissa,

Wanted to take a moment and thank you for helping me quit smoking.  I am a 17-year smoker, and tried quitting numerous times using different methods - "cold turkey", nicotine patch, nicotine gum. On Nov 15, 2006 I decided again to quit and had chosen the nicotine patch method.  After 10 days of treatment I found myself back on the cigarette.  Very disappointing as I really wanted to quit this awful habit. 

Then on Dec 21, 06 I walked in your office as the "Stop" Smoking sign caught my utmost attention.  Everyone was very informative, and was able to make a decision and get my treatment right away.  Now, 12 days later, I feel great, had absolutely no urge to smoke and still don't have it.  I am getting my second treatment simply because it has a "calming" effect on the body and mind - which we all need sometimes!  Thank you again and look forward to keeping in touch over the years.

*** 90 Day Update from Michael ***

 

Mark,

 

I thought I would drop you and Melissa a line as I am past my first 90 days as a non-smoker on March 21st.

 

How great it is that I don’t have to take a trip to the local grocery store at 6 in the morning because I ran out of cigarettes the night before. I don’t have to step outside when everyone is sharing great moments inside at a family gathering, I no longer have to pay higher insurance premiums, and finally I don’t have to smell like a locomotive!

 

I can now run and will get tired before I will run out of breath. Never had a chance to get tired before as my lungs could not carry me.

 

Please say hi to Melissa as she is so patient and caring every time I talk to her.

 

Keep up the good work.

 

Thank you,

Michael Ciochir

 

 

 Dear Mark and Melissa,

I have to say that I have always been skeptical of claims made about smoking cessation methods, products and programs but the DJ I listen to every morning started talking about your clinic and seem to be doing well. I talked to my husband and we decided to give it a try. We walked into your clinic and Feb. 10, 2007 and I am so very happy and proud to report that three weeks later, March 3, 2007 we are both still smoke free. You all made us feel so very comfortable like we had been long time friends. This was the easiest thing we have ever done! We only wish we had found you sooner. Thank you for making this treatment available and thank you Taco Bob of Real Rock 101 for informing us of Healing Laser Clinics. Looking forward to continuing a smoke free life.

 

 Thank you again,

Joanna and Kevin Swata

Mark,

 I’ve quit countless times, for countless reasons, but for the first time in 20 years I can confidently say, I’m DONE smoking.  

The morning of my first treatment I stood doubtful in the parking lot while having a cigarette … “There’s no way this Hocus Pocus laser thing will work!”  I’ve smoked for so long; it’s just part of who I am – Like an old friend.  It wasn’t like I’d done a ton of research, seeking the newest trend in stop smoking aids.  I came across the clinic through a sales call, and just thought I’d give it a shot … not exactly the best attitude to have going in!!

 I’d tried gums, patches, and pills – All with no success.  But after the first appointment, the physical desire to smoke was all but gone.  It was like the ‘power’ I’d given to smoking was regained, and I didn’t need it anymore … So thank you for the incredible service you provide our community.  

 In total contrast to my initial pessimistic attitude, I find myself evangelizing about your services, telling anyone who’ll listen.  It’s now been three months, and the desire to smoke is completely gone … Again, I am DONE smoking thanks to you and Melissa.

I’ll talk with you soon.

All the best,

Jim

Hello Guys,

I just wanted to say that it will be four months since I quit smoking 2 packs a day.  I owe you guys my life, I don't smell that god awful smell.  Most of all my kids aren't subjected to my second hand smoke.  For that rumor that says you gain weight when you wuit smoking is false, for me as well I have dropped 27 pounds in that time that I stopped smoking.  Just by cutting down my portion size for some reason I'm not as hungry anymore.  The laser therapy didn't hurt one bit so please you owe it to yourselves and the love ones around you to give this an honest shot.  You can call me any time at 407-***-**** and I will be more than happy to talk to you about quitting or if you started your new life I will offer my support because it save my life.  Also my blood pressure has dropped as well.  I can't say thanks enough.

Yours Truly,

Joe Sims

 

Mark,

I just had to write and tell you what an incredible service you are providing.  I've been smoking for 22 years and over that time I've tried to quit at least a half a dozen times.  I've tried cold turkey, the patch, the losenge, and the gum and nothing worked for me.  I even smoked while I was wearing the patch.  But after just one session with the cold laser, my cravings were gone.  I walked out of your clinic and barely even thought about smoking.  Honestly, there have been a couple of times that I've wanted a cigarette since my treatment, but they weren't strong cravings and I was able to easily ignore them.  It's been three weeks now and I've never gone this long before without cheating.  Finally, I can say that I'm non-smoker!

Thanks,

Michael Hesse

 

Hello Melissa and Mark!

I would like to thank you both for helping me to quit smoking. I have been smoking for 35 years off and on (mostly "on"). I admit I was very skeptical about the Laser Therapy since I have tried so many "quit smoking" products
and failed. Among them - hypnosis, the gum, the patch, the pills, the patch and pills together, and of course the worst method - cold turkey - some of these, I've tried several times. My friends used to joke that I spent more money on quitting smoking than smoking. I used to say I didn't
care how much it cost as long as I quit. Of course, we all know that in the long run, no matter what the product costs, it is probably cheaper than continuing to smoke and that is considering only the cost of the cigarettes.  Who knows what the savings could be if we include the cost to our health?

Now, here I am in my sixth week of being nicotine free and I truly believe this is the time that I will finally succeed in quitting forever. And it has not been nearly as difficult as the other times. I had NO physical withdraws. Sure there have been mental cravings but, I've been able to resist them (even during cocktails at the bar with my friends that smoke).


It's a miracle! The "calming affect" of your product and your support have been the help I needed to overcome my addiction.

So, again, thank you for helping a human chimney to quit puffing away her life once and for all!

Best regards,
Annette Sisson

 

Dear Mark and Melissa,

I had been dipping two to three cans a day since I was 13. I am now 41 years old. Quitting was a real challenge when I came in because although Mark and Melissa had helped so many people quit smoking, dipping was something completely different. Dipping is supposedly more addicting because the amount of nicotine in snuff is much greater than in cigarettes. Mark and Melissa went out of their way to be there for me, they even came in on a Saturday when my craving was at its worst.

If I had known that laser would be this fast, easy and cheap I would have quit a long time ago, and saved a lot of money not buying snuff. Thanks to Mark and Melissa for helping me quit for good, not quit for now. You have both been so awesome.

Thank you so much

WOW, I can't believe this really worked!!!!!!!!!!!! Let me tell you, I started smoking at the age of 9 years old. By the time I hit 11 I had a full blown habit. I was buying my own packs and smoking about ten or more cigrettes a day. Wait it gets better. I would steal them from my mother and she soon realized that her cigrettes were going faster than she buy them. She found me out. After many beatings she finally decided to take me to Smoke Enders a program with the American Cancer Society. I was the youngest smoker to have passed their doors, I was 13 years old. I managed to stay smoke free until I hit 15 and I relaped, the story of my life. My poor mother was at her end with me because my smoking was out of controll. She endlessly tried everything. Too many attempts to count. Actupunture w/ stapes in my ear( oh yes back when it first came out)very painfull, to hipnosis. Nothing ever worked for me. I would go cold turkey for no more than a few weeks and no one could stand to be around me. I was ugly and violent when going through withdrawal. As I continued my smoking career it turned into a story from hell for me. An addiction far worst than anything I have ever encountered or heared of. My first cigrette wasn't just the first one in the morning. It was all night long. I didn't have to open my eyes to reach for one. It was automatic, reach,light and smoke. My sleep was controlled by this addiction. I had tried sleeping pills to try to get a full nights sleep because I couldn't stand myself anymore. At the end I had started to get really severe headaches and nausea. I couldn't even eat. If I have a choice between buying a pack of cigrettes and a gallon of milk for my children, sadly I would buy my cigrettes. It isn't anything to by PROUD of believe me. Ask Melissa, I wasn't even HONEST about how much I was smoking!

 

THIS DOES WORK! First please be honest with yourself and with Melissa, if you want this to work, Because of my shame I said that I was only smoking 1 1/2 a day when I was smoking nearly 2 1/2 if not more. It wasn't that I was trying to lie, I hadn't realized how bad it had gotten. After my first treatment I was ok, but after a few hours I started to have anixety and I became so angry. I called Melissa and she brought me in the very next morning to treat me. She knew that I had smoked more than I had admitted to. That morning in a matter of less than 4-5 hours, the time it took me to wake up, go to the store, get dress and drive to the clinic I was nearly finished with a whole pack.

 

So please you owe it to yourself, A life of being SMOKE FREE is the greatest gift you can give yourself! Most in importantly it was my chance to make up for all those gallons of milk I refused to buy for my children just so I can smoke. My children are happy that I don't smoke anymore!!! I have no desire, cravings, no anixety, I sleep through the night and I love the way I smell! I've never been happier.Thanks for giving me back my life!

 

Best Regards,

Virginia A.

 

Hello,

 

I have to e-mail in to express my thanks for such a great treatment! Prior to going to the Healing Laser Clinic I had smoked for 10 years. I had attempted to stop smoking numerous times before by trying the patch, the gum, chantix, and cold turkey with limited or no success. 1 month prior to coming in for treatment I decided that I was going to try and stop cold turkey again and couldnt make it a full day without feeling like I was going to go crazy. I stand here now smoke free after recieving only 1 treatment. My treatment was done on the 10th of Jan so I have been smoke free for 25 days total! I honestly dont feel the need to smoke anymore and feel the healthiest I have felt in years! I was surprised at how the treatment worked esp since the laser gave me no pain. Trust me when I say that it works! You just have to be determined to stop and understand that while the laser stops the physical withdraws it doesnt stop the mental aspect of the addiction, meaning that from time to time it will cross your mind the thought of a smoke, but once you get past that 2 sec thought then you are right back to not even worrying about it! Good luck to all and takes again for the help Melissa and Mark! You guys have helped to save my life and the life of my son!

Non-smoker!

 

Melissa-

Just a quick email to let you know our progress. Blanca and myself both smoked at least 2 packs a day each. We came to your clinic June 9th 2007. We were both skeptical about the process but figured since we have tried everything else, what the heck. Well its now August and I am happy to say we are both still smoke free.

I wont lie and say we never wanted another ciggarette, because we both did. It's that we didnt CRAVE like we did in the past when we tried. It was more a passing thought and then we got over it. Believe me, without going into detail, we have had some stressfull situations that we would have used as an excuse in the past to start again, but didnt.

We now both walk about 3-5 miles every other day and are finally feeling better than have in a long time.

We both still have one treatment left and hopefully we wont need it. We just wanted to say thanks. If you want to use us as a reference we would be more than happy to give your clinic nothing but the highest praise for what you do.

Regards

I went to visit these guys on oct 23rd 2007. I was very skeptical of this procedure. Since seeing them, i have not smoked in 7 months. I never believed such a procedure would have helped me as much as it did. Thanks again to all of you.

Melissa and Ken,

It's been over two months since I quit smoking! I can't tell you how much better I feel and how grateful I am!

What a wonderful service you  provide! I tell everyone I know who still smokes that they need to go see you!

Dear Healing Laser Clinics,

Naww...it won't work.  Nothing's worked and each time I've tried, everyone around me begged me to start again because I was SUCH a witch!  And, on top of it, I just knew I'd gain a ton of weight and look like a whale.  Great, a miserable, somewhat non-smoking obese whale.  Plus, I really liked smoking. Great attitude to have to stop smoking, right?  So, why try this?  My mother died just a couple of weeks before and she didn't have to.  I had a hard look at myself and decided it was time to do this.  I went on line and googled "stop smoking and not gain weight" and up came Healing Laser Clinics in Lake Mary and I began to read.  It seemed too good to be true...but what the heck...I could at least try it.  So I did. Made the appointment, walked in, got the 10 minute laser treatment and walked out.  It's been three months and I haven't had a cigarette.  Yes, I did get a little snippy that first evening and I had a couple of urges the first couple of days, but they were easy to dismiss and I HAVEN'T GAINED A POUND!!!  I am now an obnoxious convert and hand out the Healing Laser Clinic business cards to everyone.  This is incredible and my family is so thankful.  I'm just glad that I don't have the urge and I haven't gained weight.  I guess being healthy is a good thing too.  Thank you.

From Richard Dixon

 (morning DJ on WHTQ Orlando 96.5)

 

Thanks to Healing Laser Clinics, I've been smoke free for a year!

I wanted to quit throughout 2006, into 2007, but having been a smoker for a total of 21 years (two brief stops in there) I didn't think I'd be able to quit.  I could imagine nothing worse than trying to quit and failing...I've never failed at ANYTHING, but was scared to even TRY to stop.  When I was told about Healing Laser Clinics, I couldn't imagine how lasers were going to help me quit...and then they did.  From skeptic to believer in about 30 minutes...now THAT'S powerful!  I haven't had a smoke since that first visit, and I never will again.

 

Thanks again, Healing Laser Clinics!
