Abstract: Addiction treatment, specifically smoking cessation, can be effectively treated utilizing stimulation of low resistance skin locations by employing a combination of an electrical current and a laser beam. In a preferred stimulation treatment, pulsed stimulation is used, stimulating skin locations in the ear and nose areas. The present stimulation treatment is simple and cost effective, lasting about 10-20 minutes per treatment session, with an average of 1 to 2 repeated treatment sessions per person. The present stimulation treatment is proven to be effective in assisting in smoking cessation, showing high percentage of long term smoking abstinence in just one treatment session.
