Mercy Road to Freedom:  What to Expect

Once you register, your CTTS will contact you by telephone to set up your initial 45-minute coaching consultation to develop a personal tobacco cessation plan. In the subsequent 15-20 minute telephone coaching sessions, you and your coach will review the progress towards your vision and goals, discuss any issues or concerns, and agree upon a set of goals for the next week.

St. Louis Auriculotherapy Treatment

Mercy Hospital St. Louis also offers auriculotherapy treatment as an option for smoking cessation. Auriculotherapy is a therapeutic intervention using electrical stimulation of specific points on the ear to treat nicotine addiction. It targets the addictive centers of the brain and helps patients get over the cravings and withdrawal symptoms that often are the reason they go back to smoking with other methods.
