Tobacco Treatment
Nicotine Addiction
The first step in overcoming tobacco addiction is to overcome physical addiction to the substance. The addictive power of nicotine has been proven in numerous studies, there is no scientific doubt about it. That is why the first step is to overcome that need acquired by the body.
Behavioural addiction to smoking: weaning the habituation of gestural automatisms
Flaubert said that customs become tyrannies. Tobacco use is no exception to this rule. Just like those moments or that psychological need that we associate with tobacco (how many smokers who try to quit feel real fear of fear and its reaction in moments of stress), it is also necessary to neutralize the gestures linked to the habit of smoking. As on so many occasions, smoking also rests on small details.
Psychological Addiction to Tobacco: Habit
To overcome smoking cessation, psychological cessation is just as important as physical cessation. Those moments that every smoker knows are linked to smoking (coffee, social situations, moments of stress…) are real traps to overcome smoking. At CITA, our method evaluates routines and designs a specific plan for each smoker, which focuses on the deactivation of routines linked to tobacco consumption
