Smoking is one of many bad habits, but at the same time the most popular. It is unlikely that you will be able to find a person who has never tried a cigarette in his life. Daily problems and difficulties make us look for our methods of relaxation and partial escape from reality. Many people find it desirable in cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, etc. People believe that smoking is not something blatantly bad, because some smokers live a long life. This is more a coincidence than a pattern. If a person takes a cigarette daily, there is a danger of a transition to a state of uncontrollable habit, then it is worth thinking about ways that will help get rid of it. Coding for smoking completely destroys the patient's desire to take a cigarette. There are a huge number of techniques, the main of which we will consider in our material.
Encoding methods
First, let's define the concept of coding. It represents a specific effect on the human body, resulting in a persistent aversion to the stimulant. If we talk about cigarettes, then in this case, nicotine is a psychostimulant.
It is worth noting that before proceeding with the action, it is necessary to conduct a diagnosis. You should also organize measures to neutralize toxic substances in the body. Before the procedures you can not smoke for twelve hours. Today there are many methods, but we will highlight the most effective:
- Drug coding for smoking. It works as follows: a person takes drugs that cause him discomfort when taking a cigarette. In addition, overall health is deteriorating.
- Suggestive ways. In a different way - the method of suggestion, the patient is instilled with the idea that smoking leads to serious diseases and death.
- Hypnosis. A competent specialist is engaged in this, he brings a person into a state between sleep and wakefulness, and at the same time inspires disgust from cigarettes.
Everyone can quit smoking.
This statement has a place to be. However, before scolding a person who cannot independently get rid of addiction, it is necessary to have information about this process. In fact, this is not as easy as it seems. As a result of prolonged smoking, a person is inflicted great harm that can cause respiratory diseases, and not only. After some time, the body gets used to the effects of toxins and rebuilds the system according to new parameters.
It turns out that smoking cessation is perceived as a threat to health, an imbalance of all organs is formed. A person feels bad, it only becomes easier for him after taking a cigarette. The addiction is not easy to eliminate, you need to be a truly strong person. Most need qualified assistance from specialists working in smoking coding clinics.
Acupuncture: an effective way?
Despite the fact that we did not indicate acupuncture among the methods, it is impossible to ignore it. Moreover, this method is considered the most common. It is difficult to say whether acupuncture is a coding for smoking, because there is no direct effect on the psyche, but no one has canceled the placebo effect.
The essence of the technique is the penetration of thin needles under the skin in certain places. Points are not chosen randomly, as is the depth of input and the exposure time. This is done by specialists who claim the following:
- acupuncture reduces the craving for cigarettes;
- stabilizes the central nervous system;
- improves the functioning of the respiratory organs.
Advantages and disadvantages of the method
Each method has its pros and cons, acupuncture is no exception. Advantages and disadvantages are based on coding reviews from smoking by real people who used the method on themselves.
Among the advantages are:
- lack of direct influence on the psyche of the individual;
- this is not charlatanism, acupuncture is officially recognized in our country, therefore specialists undergo appropriate qualifications;
- the technique does not cause physical pain, is easily tolerated by people;
- the efficiency of the method is quite high;
- the price of the method is quite affordable (on average 3-4 thousand rubles).
As for the shortcomings, the following should be noted:
- the risk of infection, since the technique involves slight damage to the skin;
- the duration of the course, because for the desired effect you should visit a specialist at least twenty times.
Acupuncture contraindications
Among all coding methods for smoking, acupuncture has the largest list of restrictions and contraindications. They can be divided into two groups: absolute (completely prohibiting) and relative (the decision remains with the attending physician).
The first category includes:
- Oncological diseases. Therapy involves increased blood circulation, and a rush of blood can provoke the formation of metastases.
- Blood diseases. A similar situation, the general condition of a person worsens significantly.
- Disorders related to psychiatry. The introduction of needles into the body can cause an inadequate reaction in such people.
- Serious infections like tuberculosis and AIDS. Acupuncture in such a situation can provoke additional diseases.
- Pregnancy. Preterm birth is possible, as uterine contractions occur more often and more intensively.
- Fever. Problems with the central nervous system and fever reduce the effectiveness of the method.
Relative contraindications include diseases such as varicose veins, sclerosis, stroke, general exhaustion, muscular dystrophy, etc.
Hypnosis
Everyone knows this word. A professional puts a person in a state between sleep and wakefulness, and then the suggestion session begins. Do not trust someone who says that the method is highly effective, because hypnosis really helps in fifty percent of cases. Some people are difficult to introduce into a trance, but their minority.
It cannot be argued that hypnosis from smoking does not help. The effects on the psyche can be different. The easiest degree is considered to be a mild suggestion of aversion to smoking. The strongest encoding is based on shocking techniques. Someone is told something like “cigarettes-pain”, but such methods are prohibited in many countries. For a hypnotic session to succeed, you must be physically and mentally prepared for this. A person must be confident in his desire to quit smoking, and do not skeptically approach the method.
After the session
Hypnosis from smoking, if everything went well, has a beneficial effect on the body. A person feels, first of all, lightness. The desire to take a cigarette disappears completely. If hypnosis was deep, then with the thought of smoking, a person may experience physical pain and nausea. However, not everything is so smooth. When using the method, side effects sometimes pop up.
The patient feels the following symptoms:
- headaches, insomnia, drowsiness during the day;
- weakness, loss of strength, decreased energy;
- pressure instability, disturbances in psychology, panic attacks, lethargy, mood swings.
It is worth noting that smoking cessation after the session should be final, since the effectiveness of the session is temporary. You need to take all the will into a fist and cope with addiction once and for all.
Laser coding
We can say that in essence this method is similar to acupuncture. The procedure is carried out with the help of the influence of a certain wave on special points of a person. The location of specific places are selected on the basis of ancient Chinese teachings. According to experts, these points can activate a patient's aversion to cigarettes and help get rid of a bad habit.
Regarding the effectiveness of the described method, it is difficult to say something unambiguously. Patients claim that the technique does not help immediately after the session, but after some time. The price of laser coding for smoking is rather big. In total, such procedures will cost a person approximately 25-30 thousand rubles. This is not the final cost, depending on the clinic, it can increase or decrease.
Pros and cons
Consider the advantages and disadvantages of laser coding for smoking. In their reviews, people distinguish the following advantages:
- painlessness compared to conventional acupuncture;
- the laser does not touch and does not damage the skin, so there is no risk of infection;
- sometimes the result appears after one single session.
It should be noted that there are a few more shortcomings:
- an unproven method in terms of results, you will never guess whether the laser will help this time;
- there is no risk of infection in the body, but an epidermal burn of the skin is possible;
- a sufficient number of contraindications;
- high cost, sometimes unjustified;
- it is difficult to find a person of high qualification in this matter, since there are very few true professionals in this field.
Prohibitions and restrictions
Of course, when compared with contraindications for acupuncture, the laser method has much less restrictions. However, do not discount them, be sure to conduct a diagnosis before therapy to identify those. Even if the coding procedure for smoking is carried out by a highly qualified specialist, the patient is not always allowed to be under the laser.
This method has a number of contraindications:
- oncological diseases;
- infections in the body;
- psychological problems;
- diabetes mellitus of any kind.
The main limitations are listed above. If you circumvent the prohibitions and be exposed to the laser, you can only exacerbate the already difficult situation. You should be careful about your health, avoid complications and follow the advice of doctors.
Coding for smoking by the Dovzhenko method
In our country, this method is quite popular. Dovzhenko himself calls his technique "stress-emotional coding." This term fully discloses the meaning of therapy. It consists of two sessions.
At the first stage, a qualified specialist interviews the patient. A professional aims to provoke the right mood in a person. Doctors use psychological methods to achieve results.
At the second stage, the coding of smoking takes place directly. This is achieved by psychoprogramming. The patient is convinced that as soon as he lights a cigarette, he will be very ill. The time period of the method is different, depending on the choice of the patient. I must say that abroad the technique is not very popular due to the lack of necessary research.
In Russia, you can try this coding method for smoking in St. Petersburg. Many positive reviews about the Ankylosing spondylitis medical center. The clinic consists of highly qualified specialists who can save you from addiction.
Advantages and disadvantages
Unfortunately, this encoding method also has more minuses than pluses, but first things first. Among the advantages are:
- the patient does not strain at all during the entire session;
- a person cannot be physically injured; it is safe;
- rather quick action, you can visit a specialist only once, after a couple of sessions.
Now about the disadvantages:
- smoking coding is performed if the patient did not take a cigarette during the day;
- possibly adverse effects on the human psyche;
- the body's reaction cannot be predicted;
- this technique is a paradise for charlatans, one should be very careful in this sense, there are few true professionals;
- high price (in the center of Ankylosing spondylitis - from 4,200 to 7,500 rubles), and unjustifiably.
Finally
Coding is usually resorted to when all other methods do not help. There are a lot of other methods, all of them are worth trying before acting radically. For example, quit smoking in one day or do it gradually, start a new life where there is no place for cigarettes.
In any case, you can abandon a bad habit only with the help of your own willpower, determination, determination, as well as the support of close friends and relatives.
