Smoking

Although it is generally agreed that smoking is a health hazard, many people enjoy it and seen unable to discontinue this habit without help.

Acupuncture has helped many people increase their will power enough to stop smoking. It relieves the withdrawal symptoms of nervousness, insomnia and depression. Most people experience a feeling of well-being and self-confidence after acupuncture treatment.
Inserting a staple in the ear and leaving it there for weeks is an American innovation which is seldom effective. It also promotes infection and keloid formation. Regular acupuncture treatments are more effective and safer.

Most people are able to stop smoking after their first treatment but should have three to six treatments for continuing relief from smoking addiction.

Nutritional therapy should be started along with acupuncture to help the body recover from the effects of smoking. Vitamins A, C and E are especially beneficial to the lungs. B-complex vitamins in proper doses can help promote generally improved health and vitality.

On September 20th, 1995, I had the chance, together with other members of the Kuoni-Group of Switzerland, to visit this Hospital, and to attend your most interesting explanations about Chinese medicine. I simply was impressed what happened with my friend. After 4 days of indisposition, diarrhea, nausea and light fever, you have given her a medicine and only one hour later she was hungry and felt wonderful. She was again interested in all and I heard her laughing. I thank you very much.
In my hands I have the "Kurzinformation" which was given to all of our group. My question is, if you do see any possibility to send me the Tonikum Pills No.s and cream No.18
Can I pay by check? If yes please give me the address of your Bank or any place to sent it. Do you have a price list for all items No.1 to 25?
I am very much looking forward to receiving your information.
