Insomnia and Acupuncture

October 31, 2008

There’s nothing more frustrating than lying awake, night after night, not getting enough sleep. Insomnia is the problem; acupuncture can help solve it.

Over time, sleepless nights destroy productivity during the day. Stress and anxiety often cause insomnia, which then leads to even more stress and anxiety. Acupuncture treatments are a great way to relieve the tensions that prevent a good night’s sleep. Acupuncture calms the nervous system, giving the body a chance to regain its normal cycles.

Here’s the really good news: there are no side effects with acupuncture. Insomniacs who use prescription drugs often complain of drowsiness. Some insomniacs suffer through sleepless nights because they fear taking drugs. There are no worries of addiction with the proper use of acupuncture.

Insomniacs who really want to get a handle on their sleeplessness should examine their lifestyles. A proper diet is important. Exercising at night can contribute to insomnia. Of course, too much caffeine keeps some people jittery during the day and unable sleep at night. Lifestyle changes, combined with acupuncture, can work together to alleviate insomnia and create proper conditions for a good night’s sleep.
