How it works

Three steps. One appointment.

No taper schedule, no prescriptions, no months of willpower. Everything happens in a single visit.

1

Book Online or Call

Pick a time that works β€” call or book online. Most clients are seen within the same week. Nothing to prepare beforehand.

2

60-Minute Laser Session

A drug-free, painless low-level laser applied to points on the ears, hands, and face. No needles, no hospital gowns β€” just a comfortable chair. Most people find it deeply relaxing.

3

Walk Out Nicotine-Free

Leave the same day with cravings already easing. If you need support, follow-up sessions are free within the first 3 months.

Why it works

Faster. Easier. More effective than every other method.

Your body already knows how to feel good without nicotine. The laser doesn't add anything foreignβ€”it restores what nicotine took away. One session bypasses the worst of withdrawal and carries you through the toughest stretch, so you succeed where other methods fail.

The problem

Before nicotine, your body released endorphins, serotonin, and dopamine on its own schedule. Nicotine hijacks that system β€” your body learns to rely on it to trigger those releases, and shuts down its own production. That's why quitting feels so miserable: your body is waiting for a signal that never comes.

The solution

The low-level laser stimulates your central nervous system to produce those natural chemicals again β€” without drugs or toxins. That sustained production lasts 30–45 days, carrying you through withdrawal. After about 21 days, your body re-establishes its own rhythm, just as it was before you ever started.

What you'll notice after your session
During session
Most people feel deeply relaxed. Some feel slightly light-headed as the body begins releasing its natural feel-good chemicals.
First 48 hrs
The toughest stretch β€” but cravings already come less frequently, feel less intense, and don't last as long. Drink plenty of water to help flush toxins.
After 48 hrs
Your chances of long-term success are significantly improved. Cravings continue to ease. Stay aware of triggers β€” if you usually smoke with coffee, try swapping in water first.
After 21 days
Your body re-establishes its own natural chemistry β€” releasing mood-controlling chemicals the way it did before you started nicotine. Most clients feel like themselves again.

Free follow-ups within 3 months. We're so confident in the program that any additional sessions you need in the first 3 months cost you nothing. You are not on your own.
How we compare

One week, not twenty-four.

Gums and patches succeed for roughly one in ten people. Prescription drugs do better but carry real side-effect risks. Here's how the options stack up.

FAQ

Questions we hear all the time.

No. The low-level laser is completely painless β€” it's not a cutting or burning laser. Most clients find the session deeply relaxing. Some notice a slight light-headedness as their body begins releasing natural feel-good chemicals; that's a sign it's working.
We stand behind our results. If you need additional support after your initial session, any follow-up treatments within the first 3 months are completely free. We are committed to helping you succeed β€” you are not on your own after you walk out the door.
Yes. Breathe Therapy works for all forms of nicotine addiction β€” cigarettes, vaping and e-cigarettes, chewing tobacco and dip, cigars, nicotine gum, patches, lozenges, and snuff. The underlying mechanism is the same regardless of the delivery method.
Yes. Breathe Therapy is HSA and FSA eligible, so you can use pre-tax health savings dollars to cover the cost β€” making the session even more affordable than the sticker price.
Most clients are seen within the same week. Call (952) 546-5657 during office hours (Mon–Thu 9am–7pm, Fri 9am–4pm) and we'll find you the earliest slot.
No special preparation required. You don't need to taper down, set a quit date, or do anything the morning of your session. Just show up β€” we handle everything from there.
Patches and gum keep nicotine in your body for weeks or months while you slowly taper β€” long and uncomfortable, with a high give-up rate. Chantix is a prescription drug with real side-effect risks. Breathe Therapy stops nicotine immediately while restoring your body's own chemistry β€” so you bypass the worst of withdrawal. No drugs, no taper, one appointment.
Especially then. Most of our clients have tried patches, gum, cold turkey, or willpower without lasting success. That's not a character flaw β€” those methods have low success rates because they don't address the underlying chemistry. Breathe works differently, and we've helped over 10,000 Minnesotans quit for good, including many who had given up hope.
