In recent years, acupuncture has become an increasingly popular treatment for insomnia as more people look for alternatives to traditional sleep medications.
Acupuncture can relieve insomnia symptoms, although the mechanisms behind its effects are not fully understood. For some people with insomnia, receiving regular acupuncture treatments for one to two months can:
Improve sleep quality
Reduce waking up in the night
Increase total sleep time
Decrease anxiety
Alleviate pain
People whose insomnia is linked to depression, menopause, or chronic pain may be especially good candidates for acupuncture therapy.
Acupuncture can be a great complementary treatment and many patients find it helpful.
In a typical acupuncture session, the practitioner will evaluate the patient and insert between five and 20 needles, leaving each in place for about 10 to 15 minutes. However, one patient with insomnia may receive an entirely different acupuncture treatment than another, and the same patient may receive different treatments from session to session.
This is because acupuncturists base their selection of acupoints on their assessment of how energy, or “qi,” is flowing through pathways called “meridians” within the body. Acupuncture is intended to resolve blockages, disruptions, and imbalances in energy flow, thereby addressing complaints such as pain or difficulty sleeping.
While acupuncture is a safe and drug-free treatment for insomnia, it is just one of several available approaches to reducing symptoms and improving sleep. People with insomnia should talk to their doctors or sleep specialists about which treatment—or combination of treatments—best suits their needs. These treatments include:
Cognitive behavior therapy for insomnia (CBT-I)
Sleep medications
Homeopathic treatments, like melatonin, yoga, or aromatherapy
Lifestyle changes
