How Does Laser Therapy Help Me Quit Alcohol?
Low intensity laser is applied to specific points (acupuncture points) on the ears, head, hands and feet in order to stimulate the release of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, and endorphins – the body’s natural feel-good chemicals.
This helps to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms in order to break the withdrawal cycle to alcohol.
The end goal is to drastically make it easier to cut back or quit alcohol for good.

What To Expect On Your First Laser Treatment To Quit Alcohol
When you come for your first laser to quit alcohol with Lazer Dave, you will get comfortable by lying down on a comfortable treatment table while listening to relaxing music
Dave will explain the procedure to you and ask you to wear protective eyewear. Dave will use various laser devices to treat “acutherapy” points on the face, ears, arms, hands, lower legs and feet.
You may feel a slightly warm or tingling sensation through your body. As the points are stimulated with the laser light, your body should begin to release endorphins and other powerful neurochemicals which promote a pleasant sense of relaxation.
What to Expect After Your First Laser Therapy Treatment To Quit Alcohol
After your first laser therapy treatment for quitting alcohol you will likely feel more relaxed, calm, and best of all your cravings will likely have diminished. In addition to treating you with laser, Dave will also review behavioural modification practices and then schedule your second appointment (included with the program fee).
While many find positive results with 1-2 treatments, a small percentage may require additional “booster” treatments for longer-term success depending on their individual circumstances.
