Maybe your numbers came from someone selling Low Level Laser Therapy. Currently my success in using hypnosis for smoking cessation in clients is 89%. This is the number that we have derived from 3 month, six month and one year follow-up questionnaires. My personal belief is that my hypnosis program is effective in over 95% of the cases, but we often loose contact with clients and in an attempt to not skew the numbers in our favor we count a non-reply as a failure. This makes our numbers artificially low, but I am happy with it that way.

I would be willing to offer a free audio recording to anyone who wishes to stop smoking.
