OUR MAIDSTONE HYPNOTHERAPY AND ACUPUNCTURE AFTERCARE

Here’s a snippet from the book. There are lots of pages you can read for free. We suggest you do this before you see our Maidstone hypnotist or acupuncturist.

….. Does this mean using the NRP was a waste of time and money? No, because it taught you something very important – that your problem is addiction to nicotine (which of course you won’t break taking more nicotine).

All of which leaves an important question, and it’s one that comes up time and time again with our patients, practically all of whom have used NRPs before they come to us. A lot of them report they still wanted to smoke even using the NRP. They not unnaturally assumed this was because they had a psychological need for a burning cigarette in their hand. It’s a nice theory, but it’s not true. You could hold a burning cigarette in your hand, while you chew nicotine gum or suck a nicotine lozenge. You could even smoke a herbal cigarette while you use an NRP.

The answer is another question:

When you smoke a cigarette you get nicotine. Is this nicotine: Raw? Burned?

If you answered raw, go to the back of the class. You have to burn tobacco to smoke it, and you are therefore addicted to burned nicotine. Raw nicotine has an entirely different chemical structure and unless you habitually chew the stuff your body doesn’t know what to do with it.

So unless the NRP is made from burned nicotine, it is not presenting the chemical information to your body in a form that will give you a fix. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if the NRP they are putting you on is made from burned nicotine.
