What Patients Say About Laser Therapy to Quit Smoking

Here is what real NuLife patients wrote about their experience. We have kept their words as they wrote them.

“I had an excellent experience here. I smoked a pack a day easily. I was desperate for a solution and decided that this was a viable option to try and quit. I was not only given treatment, but was educated on how I can make the entire process enjoyable. I am now smoke free and the happiest I’ve been in years! Thank you so much!”

Harry J., Google review

“If you’re going to quit smoking, NuLife is the way to go! Not every laser therapy clinic provides the detailed program and support system that these guys do. They help you tackle every aspect of your addiction, guiding you through exactly what every day will bring and how to handle it. The laser therapy itself is such a soothing way to quit, vs nicotine supplements. Thank you so much for all of your help! Highly recommend!”

Martha F., Google review

“I had been a fifty year smoker… Followed what they told me to do and I have not had any cravings or wanted a cigarette… It’s like I’ve never smoked at all… for the first time I feel like a non smoker.”

Edwin D., Google review

“Most impressed by the experience and the honesty of the very knowledgeable staff! I am smoke free. And have tried multiple times over the course of 5 years. If you are committed, this will work!”

Michelle R., Google review

“I started out in the financial sector when I was 22 years old. That was 25 years ago. In that time I had become a 2 pack a day smoker… Retirement was on the horizon, and I didn’t want to spend my retirement as a smoker. I was floored with the results. My only regret is that I didn’t do laser therapy to stop smoking sooner.”

Victor S., patient story

“My Mom was a smoker. My Dad was a smoker. My Husband was a smoker. And I was a smoker… To our surprise NuLife did. The cravings stopped and we were able to live life smoke-free. It’s been 2 years now and I haven’t had a single craving.”

What Laser Quit Smoking Reviews Mention Most

• Cravings eased. Many patients say the urge to smoke dropped and withdrawal felt easier than they expected.
• No drugs and no needles. A cold, low-level laser is used, so there is no medication and nothing to swallow or wear.
• The support, not just the laser. Reviewers often say the counselling and follow-up are what made it stick.
• Staff who explain every step. People mention knowing what to expect each day and how to handle triggers.
• Covered by most benefit plans. Everyone is welcome, with or without insurance.

What Reviews Don’t Tell You

Reviews are personal experiences, not a guarantee. Here is what to keep in mind when you read them:

• It works best when you are ready. As one patient put it, “If you are committed, this will work!”
• It is a program, not a single visit. Cravings, withdrawal and habits are handled over a personalized plan with follow-up.
• Results vary. Your smoking history, stress and triggers all play a part, which is why every plan starts with an assessment.

How to Read Laser Quit Smoking Reviews and Pick the Right Clinic

• Look for reviews that mention support. Good programs help you after the first visit, not just during it.
• Check who does the treatment. Ask if a certified specialist assesses you and builds your plan.
• Ask about follow-up and relapse support. Most people find the first weeks the hardest.
• Read recent reviews from real names. Google reviews with details are more useful than short star ratings.
• Ask how cost and coverage work. A good clinic will go over it with you on the phone.

NuLife vs a Laser-Only Visit

What a Visit Is Like at NuLife

At NuLife we combine traditional acupuncture technique with low-level laser therapy (photobiomodulation). A painless low-level laser is applied to specific points, with no needles and no drugs, and it helps your body release endorphins, natural chemicals that ease cravings, withdrawal and stress. It’s combined with one-on-one counselling, and the device we use is FDA cleared and Health Canada approved.

1. Free phone call about your smoking and your goals.
2. Assessment with a certified specialist: your habit, triggers and what you’ve tried.
3. Your personalized plan, with laser treatment and counselling.
4. Follow-up support to help the change last.
