Why quitting smoking on your own is so hard
Two mechanisms overlap when you quit. The first is physical: deprived of nicotine, the body reacts with irritability, difficulty concentrating and sometimes broken nights. The second is down to habit: the morning cigarette, the break outside between two meetings, the Friday evening drink. Each of these moments brings back the gesture, regardless of the craving itself.
Most people who come to the centre have already tried to quit, on their own or with other methods. These attempts say nothing about their willpower: it usually takes several attempts before quitting lasts over time. Laser auricular reflexology works on the physical side. The rest is then worked on with the follow-up support.
Laser auricular reflexology in Leuven: what happens during a session
How a session works, step by step
- The initial interview
The session lasts about an hour. It begins with an initial interview: your consumption, your previous attempts, the moments when the urge comes back. The practitioner uses this to tailor what follows. - Applying the laser
Next comes the laser application. A gentle, low-intensity laser (photobiomodulation) stimulates reflex points on the ear and a few points on the nose. No needles, no breaking of the skin, no medication: the technique is non-invasive and painless, and most people feel only a slight warmth. The session ends with advice for the first few days.
What the method aims to do, and what it doesn't
The method is based on laser stimulation of specific points. It aims to ease the physical signs of craving felt after quitting and to reduce the symptoms often associated with withdrawal, such as stress, irritability, anxiety or sleep problems. The goal is to support you through this transition phase by making it less uncomfortable.
It does not replace your decision to quit and does not act on the habits built up over the years: that is the role of the follow-up support.
Laser technology has been in use for more than thirty years; Reset Laser has been supporting clients since 2020, in seven countries. Find out more about the method.
Who the method is not suitable for
The session cannot be offered to people in any of the following situations:
- pregnant women, at any stage of pregnancy
- people with a pacemaker or an active implanted electronic device
- people undergoing heavy medical treatment (active chemotherapy or radiotherapy)
- people who are photosensitive or taking photosensitising medication
- minors without parental consent
If in doubt, talk to your GP before booking.
What the Leuven centre offers you after the session
12
12 months of personalised support
The session is not the end of the road. For 12 months, you stay in direct contact with the Leuven centre: a stronger craving than expected, a difficult weekend, a situation you hadn’t anticipated. You call, and the practitioner who saw you adjusts his advice. That is what sets this approach apart from quitting on your own.
+
A free session if you relapse
If you start smoking again within 12 months, you are offered a new session at no extra cost, at the Leuven centre or at any other centre in the network, in Belgium or abroad.
This commitment relates to the means we put in place and is not a promise of results; success also depends on each client’s personal determination.
The addictions supported at the Leuven centre
Tobacco
The session stimulates the reflex points linked to nicotine craving as well as those linked to stress and anxiety, to help ease the sensations felt when you quit. The follow-up support then focuses on the everyday situations that trigger the urge to smoke. Discover the method.
Alcohol
Same principle: a session that works on the craving points, followed by 12 months of support. It is a subject that often carries a stigma, one the centre does not share. Find out more.
Cannabis
The principle is close to that for tobacco, working on the points linked to craving, stress and anxiety. The support often goes further, as people also bring up sleep, motivation and concentration. Find out more.
Sugar
Both an addictive substance and an ingrained habit, refined sugar is worked on through the same points: those linked to craving, to reduce the urge to consume it, and those linked to stress. Weight and energy concerns are often part of the picture. Find out more.

Frequently asked questions about stop-smoking laser sessions in Leuven
How much does a laser session to quit smoking cost in Leuven?
€190 for an individual session and €170 per person from two participants; companies can request a quote. The price includes the session of about an hour at the Heverlee centre, 12 months of support and a free session if you relapse.
Does the laser work to help you quit smoking?
The method aims to ease the signs of physical craving after quitting. Reset Laser commits to the means it puts in place, not to results: experiences vary from one person to another and the centre does not quote any success rate. Your decision and the 12 months of support matter as much as the session itself.
How many sessions are needed?
One session of about an hour. If you start smoking again within 12 months, you are offered a free support session at the Leuven centre or at another centre in the network. The support continues by phone, with no further session required.
Is the session painful?
No. The gentle laser does not pierce the skin and involves no needles. Most people describe a slight feeling of warmth on the ear, nothing more. As the technique is non-invasive, you can leave straight after the session.
What do clients say about the method?
Feedback from people who have visited the Heverlee centre can be found higher up on this page and on the centre’s Google listing. These reviews reflect individual experiences: they are no indication of results and say nothing in advance about your own journey.
