Stop chewing tobacco habit

Using chewing tobacco is not a risk-free alternative to smoking. It’s an addictive, harmful habit just like smoking and can take a toll on your oral and overall health.

Some of the irritants in chewing tobacco can cause:

  • tooth decay (cavities)
  • staining of teeth
  • abrasion of teeth
  • bad breath (halitosis)
  • receding gums
  • gum disease
  • bone loss around roots
  • tooth loss

Choose healthy goals & feel amazing!

You’ve heard the expression, “If you don’t have your health, you have nothing.”

All it takes is one extended bout on the sidelines of life and you understand the truth in that expression.

Studies have shown that any number of things can have a detrimental effect on your health. Smoking is HUGE factor in the state of your health. It has been proven to cause lung disease, cancer, emphysema and coronary breakdown, to name just a few. Stress and worry can lead to immune system breakdown and heart-related issues.

Studies also show that being thankful and happy can reduce stress. Research shows that 50% of our inclination to be happy is genetic, something you can’t effect very much, 10% is based on surroundings (job, money and family), and 40% is “deliberate action”. Deliberate actions are things we can control through behaviour.

So how can Calgary Laserworks and Reflexology help with your health?

We can help you take deliberate actions! We’ll help you stop smoking, reduce stress and anxiety, and help you relax, all which can improve your immune system and much, much more.

Call 403-301-3730.  You’ll be so grateful and proud of yourself for taking the steps to improve your health and well-being!

This yearly celebration informs the public on the dangers of using tobacco, the business practices of tobacco companies, what the World Health Organization (WHO) is doing to fight against the use of tobacco, and what people around the world can do to claim their right to health and healthy living and to protect future generations.” – Wikipedia

Secondhand smoke – smoke you don’t mean to breathe in

Non-smokers are constantly aware of secondhand smoke – smoke you don’t mean to breathe in, smoke that you inhale accidentally (called passive smoking) when you are near sources of tobacco smoke.

There is no risk-free level of exposure to secondhand smoke. In fact, non-smokers exposed to secondhand smoke absorb the same harmful chemicals as smokers. Studies show that even low levels of secondhand smoke exposure can be harmful causing numerous health problems including increasing your risk for lung disease, heart disease, heart attacks and stroke.

Secondhand smoke effects everyone and everything around you. Children, pregnant women, people with breathing issues, your family. It’s never too late to do something for yourself and those around you.

Please call the office 403-301-3730 to book your appointment or to find out about current Covid-19 health guidelines and what to expect when you schedule an appointment. Generally, we will do a COVID-19 pre-screening, a temperature check will be taken upon arrival, and masks and hand sanitizer will be supplied. Please note that currently we are not accepting walk-ins.

Trying to quit smoking without success?

We can help you give up your smoking addiction in a healthy manner with low level laser treatments.

Low level laser involves a cold, soft laser beam applied to specific energy points on the body. These points are found around the ears, nose, hand and wrist, and when stimulated it releases endorphins – the body’s natural feel-good hormones. Endorphins have a natural calming, relaxing effect on the body that helps reduce or eliminate nicotine cravings and withdrawal symptoms.

At Calgary Laserworks we focus on treating the three most common symptoms associated with withdrawal.

  • Block the need for nicotine
  • Reduce stress and anxiety
  • Suppress your appetite
