Help to Stop Smoking


Auckland based “Stop Smoking Get Healthy Now” is offering a free smoking cessation programme to someone in the Auckland area who is struggling to quit.

Pauline Young of “Stop Smoking Get Healthy Now” said “We have heard so much about people who need to stop smoking due to a health issue, pending operation or other necessity, and thought it would be a wonderful thing if we could offer them the chance to stop smoking using our programme.

“With World Smoke Free Day only a week away, we thought it an ideal time to make this gesture, and give someone the opportunity that they need.”

The four week “Stop Smoking Get Healthy Now Programme ” uses a two prong approach to quitting – Mapping Human Minds– which helps by altering peoples habits, their thought processes around smoking, and Acupuncture works on trigger points and assisting with the removal of poisons accumulated in the body by smoking.

Selwyn Wong Doo who practices acupuncture in Remuera said “the use of acupuncture to help people quit smoking is nothing new; we are doing something different by focusing on the physical, emotional and mental level to stop the smoking habit

With the combination of Mapping Human Minds and Acupuncture, people can expect to stop or drastically cut down in the first 24 hours of their first session and achieve sustainable change by completing the programme.

Pauline said “To our knowledge there is no one else in New Zealand providing a programme like the one we are offering, and people who have begun the programme are noticing real changes in their habits”.
