Bucheon Oriental Medical Association Help Teenagers Quit Smoking


Bucheon Oriental Medical Association Help Teenagers Quit Smoking

"Bucheon Oriental Medical Association made an agreement with Bucheon Community Health Centers to cooperate free acupunctural treatments for making smoking teenagers to stop smoking"

The Bucheon Oriental Medical Association made an agreement with three Bucheon Community Health Centers last May 1st, 2013, in order to cooperate 'Stop Smoking' program for smoking teenagers in Bucheon City.

Bucheon Community Health Centers are supposed to run mobile 'Stop Smoking' classes for teenagers from May 6 to the end of September. The centers will visit middle and high schools in Bucheon City for that period. Medical counsellors who help smokers stop smoking will visit middle and high schools in Bucheon City which have already signed up to hold the program all four times, one time a week for a month. They will give personal counsellings, behavioral therapy and classes for how to stop smoking with smoking students. And according to the counsellors' orders, smoking students who want to quit it can get free acupuncture for helping stop smoking at oriental medical doctor's offices in Bucheon City.

The Bucheon Oriental Medical Association is not also giving free acupuncture for smoking students, but also opening health classes for teen students.

Jeonho Han, chairman of Bucheon Oriental Medical Association, said "Personal counselling and acupuncture treatment could make smoking teen students to stop smoking. I'm glad that my association and oriental medical doctors in Bucheon City can help teen students in Bucheon more healthful through oriental therapy in cooperation with Bucheon Community Health Centers. My colleagues, oriental medical doctors and I will do our best for it."
