"No Smoking Day" provides the perfect opportunity to stop smoking . . . for good!

Exciting new treatment from I Quit Smoking UK offers the ideal solution for smokers who want to quit today!

For those who don't already know, Wednesday 10th March is officially No Smoking Day, part of the UK's leading health campaign for smokers who want to stop. Now in its 27th year, No Smoking Day is encouraging smokers to break free from their habit. The campaign's organisers have predicted that millions of people will break free from their addiction and finally stop smoking . . . today!

For smokers who are still daunted by the prospect of quitting, thousands of No Smoking Day events will be taking place all over the UK today, including an "ashtray amnesty", customised Double-Decker Buses, and many sports activities. A variety of stop smoking services, fire and rescue services, supermarkets, and many others will also be out and about to help and support smokers who are ready to break free from their addiction.

“We'd like to say good luck to all smokers who are breaking free to improve their health in the best possible way on 10 March," says Dan Tickle, Chief Executive of No Smoking Day, the charity behind the annual health awareness campaign. "Stopping smoking is the ultimate lifestyle overhaul. You’ll feel fitter and healthier and have more energy and more money!”

According to the World Health Organisation, one-third of the world’s population currently smokes, which equates to more than 15 billion cigarettes smoked worldwide every day. Because of the damage that smoking causes to our health – and the consequent hospital care – cigarette smoking results in huge medical expenditure around the globe. In the UK alone, smoking-related illnesses cost the NHS more than £200m a year.

However, there is light at the end of the tunnel: I Quit Smoking (IQS) is an exciting new treatment for smokers who are looking to quit for good. Now available in the UK for the first time, the IQS method has already treated more than 350,000 smokers in more than 30 countries worldwide and offers an astounding success rate of up to 90%.


Unlike other smoking aids and treatments, such as patches and gums that rely on Nicotine Replacement Therapy, the IQS method does not release nicotine back into the body to block the addiction receptors in the brain. Instead, the IQS method works by using a sophisticated electronic device called a Reflection Instrument Scanning Electro-Pulse (R.I.S.E.).

Based on the well-respected practice of Auricular Therapy, the R.I.S.E.® device delivers electro-pulse stimulation to key points on the earlobe in order to release the flow of beta endorphins, a natural compound manufactured by the body, to create a sense of energy and vitality. This electrical stimulation also helps to break up the poisonous substances of tobacco accumulated in the organs, and also increases the release of endorphins, the body’s natural “feel-good” chemical in the system.

“The team behind No Smoking Day is doing a great job of helping smokers in the UK to break free from their addiction,” says Nirav Patel, IQS UK. "The message for smokers is simple, if you want to give up, help is at hand. At IQS, we can help you to quit smoking today, with a tried-and-tested approach that is completely painless and has no side-effects. It's time to take the leap and stop smoking for good!"





About I Quit Smoking (IQS):
I Quit Smoking (IQS) is a unique, innovative treatment programme that supports the cessation of smoking. Already a huge international success, IQS has now treated more than 350,000 smokers globally, with a success rate of up to 90%.

The IQS method is the result of years of research in the field of auricular therapy, a specialised treatment that uses electro-pulse stimulation. It is non-invasive and completely painless. An important feature of this innovative treatment system is that the intensity and duration of the treatment is customised for each client, based on factors such as age, gender, quantity and brand of cigarettes smoked, and the number of years of smoking.

Other treatments such as acupuncture and laser are typically standardised, which means that their success rates are much lower. As such, IQS' personalised and highly interactive treatment succeeds where other methods have failed.
