One of the most popular non medicinal ways to quit smoking is treatment by hypnotism.
Admittedly, there are a lot of doctors who are not in support of this theory, and there are also some that are not quite convinced that it is an effective way to stop smoking; however, the results for people who have been trying to stop smoking for years before they finally succeeded using hypnosis cannot be denied as their numbers continue to rise.
Hypnotism opens your subconscious to the administrator so that you can be coerced that way to let go of your craving for nicotine and the cigarette.
Without doubt, a lot of people are able to break their smoking habits this way; but some psychoanalysts insist that it is better for the patient to be fully conscious when they break free from the habit otherwise they are never truly free.
The fear is that their hypnotic trance could one day break, and then the patient will not be able to hide behind it anymore, and relapse to smoking again.
For a fact, I am yet to see that happen, so I suppose it is some kind of overreaction to an unfounded fear.
There are lots of hypnotism experts, listed on the internet that you can follow up at your own convenience; you should.
Another smoking cessation treatment by alternative medicine is acupuncture; again acupuncture is quite controversial as a treatment for any set of symptoms because not all medical professionals agree about its effectiveness.
I will state for acupuncture that it has been in practice for the greater part of five centuries since ancient Chinese medicine has existed.
So, it surely has it's merits in helping you to stop the smoking habit.
