Since 1976
The New Way to Quit Smoking
I have a stop-smoking program
that you never tried before.
I have a completely new idea of HOW to quit
smoking that will make perfect sense to you. I know the secret
to why you've had trouble quitting and staying off cigarettes in the
past. As a mater of fact, I have the answer to any question you ever asked yourself about why you couldn't quit smoking and stay off
the weed. The secret? Smoking is a behavioral problem first.
Hello. I'm Paul S. Palmer, Director of the Palmer Smoking Clinic,
serving Chicago-land since 1976. Before you try to quit again, you need to know about a different
approach to quitting that has been the best kept secret for over thirty years.
What's different about my program?
Everything! Beginning with my belief that you are
NOT the nicotine junky you thought
you were. Nicotine is not the problem and I can prove it! Yes, you heard me right.
But, I'm addicted to nicotine!
That's what you have been told for 50 years. In fact, EVERY stop smoking program
you have tried has promised to help you overcome your dependence
on nicotine. A chemical that medical experts have said for over 20 years is
out of your system in 72 hours.
What if nicotine wasn't the real
problem when you are trying to quit? What if you were a behavior junky? What if a whopping big
habit
pattern was the problem? What if the difficulty in quitting was
overcoming your years of practice and the hundreds of daily trips to the
mouth? What if your cigarette was connected
to your everyday events? Would that make a difference in
HOW
you quit? IT SURE WOULD!
Think HABIT. Not chemical.
I've
believed for over thirty years that the key to quitting smoking was
going after the habit and not just the nicotine. I also believed hypnosis was
the best solution to solve your oversize habit problem. Both turned out
to be true. I know it, but you'll need to be convinced and that's what
these pages are all about. I want you to be smarter about how you quit,
I want you to question everything you ever heard about nicotine
addiction. I want you to realize the habit
plays the major role in your difficulty quitting. Not because I said so
but because I pointed out what you already knew about your own habit. My
program isn't for dummies. I'm going to help you re-think everything you
though you knew about your so-called smoking addiction. If you don't want your mind changed,
this isn't the program for you. But, don't be scared, realizing
what you already knew, won't hurt a bit. I promise.
Here is one example of why I don't think you are a nicotine addict.
For over forty years the smoker has been offered every method of getting the nicotine monkey off their back. You could get
your
nicotine fix from pills, patches, inhalers, candy and gum. You could
taper down, cold turkey, endure vitamin injections in your face, receive
laser beams, pop anti-depressants and opiate blockers or chew on toothpicks.
You may have tried all of the above and still found yourself
nervous, crabby and eating like you had a tape worm. With all that help
to overcome your nicotine dependence, why wasn't it easier to quit?
How come you fell off the wagon so easily?
Answer: The problem obviously wasn't nicotine.
Fact: Nicotine is a minor
league chemical that can't possibly account for all the difficulty you
encounter when you try to quit. For many more examples of why smoking is a behavioral problem you
need to read The Full Story.
Hypnosis! Why Hypnosis?
Because, it's the only help you can get for your
HABIT. As far back as you can remember, you have heard of hypnosis being
used for cigarette smoking. There is a good reason. In every study that compared smoking cessation programs, hypnosis always
came in number one. It's a tool that
has been around for
150 years and still the most effective way to quit.
If hypnosis is used properly! Meaning, on the
habit.
Hypnosis and your supersized habit problem.
For over thirty years at the Palmer Smoking Clinic, I have used
hypnosis to work on the hundreds of trips to the mouth each day and the
thousands of smoking haunts the smoker develops during
their smoking
career. When you focus on the habit as your primary goal in quitting,
smokers quit more easily and more comfortably than anything else they
have tried, without weight gain or becoming a grouch. Important? To my
clients it is.
Tip: When you pick a hypnotist, it's
smart to look for someone with special expertise and knowledge in this area and
over 30 years of
experience wouldn't hurt either.
For much more information on how my
hypnosis program works for smokers go to my
Why
Hypnosis page.
But I tried hypnosis.
My hypnosis program is completely different from other hypnosis
programs. It was developed specifically to work on the habitual part of
smoking. My session is an hour and a half and I take you through the
hypnosis twice in that same session. My
music program and subliminal messaging process is found nowhere else. If you are apprehensive
or think you can't be hypnotized, you'll quickly find out there is
nothing scary or difficult about my hypnosis process. Plus, for your
protection and mine, all hypnosis sessions are digitally recorded.
Nobody else offers all that!
How successful is the program?
For decades my success rate has been over 90%, requiring between 1
and 3 sessions, with most clients needing only the first session to
quit. A private, 1 1/2 hour, individual session at the clinic is the
best bargain in town at $250.
Quit with a friend and save big bucks!

What you won't find at the Palmer Smoking Clinic.
What you won't be subjected to are ugly lung stories or lectures on the
demon weed, that's not my style. I'm an expert in hypnosis (see
Palmer's Bio) that also
happens to work with smokers, I'm not on a mission from God to preach
the evils of tobacco. I've been in the stop-smoking business too long to
offend my clientele that way. I've always believed smoking is a matter
of choice and so is quitting, when you're ready,
come see me.
Ready to quit? Call today.
Many of my clients didn't know anything about hypnosis and certainly
never thought there was any controversy about smoking being more than a
nicotine problem. That is why I offer so much information. Please
take a few minutes to scan my pages. I know you'll be surprised,
informed and convinced. The smarter you are about quitting, the easier it
is to work with you.
I also work in many other
areas of hypnosis (see Other Hypnosis
Programs). I also make custom CD's for folks who don't live in the
Chicago Il. area. If you have questions,
would you please call me. Don't be shy, I'm the boss and I'll speak to
you directly. That's Paul S. Palmer at 708-233-1111. If you are really
shy, you can e-mail me too. But, I'm a little slow on that e-mail thing.
If
you already agree that smoking is a major habit problem and not a
chemical problem, make an appointment. If you are almost convinced, stop by my Short Story page. If you are not convinced yet, pull up a chair,
light one up and start with the "The Full Story".
