Insomnia & Sleep Disorders

The TCM Perspective: When the Spirit Cannot Rest

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, sleep is a natural transition from    Yang (activity/light) to Yin (rest/darkness). Insomnia is viewed as an imbalance where the Shen (Spirit) is unable to find its "home" in the Heart and Blood at night.

Whether your mind is racing with thoughts or you wake up frequently feeling unrefreshed, our approach aims to nourish your internal Yin, calm the nervous system, and restore the biological clock without the grogginess associated with conventional sleep medication.

Common Sleep Patterns We Treat

  • Heart and Spleen Deficiency: Difficulty falling asleep due to a "racing mind" or worry, often accompanied by palpitations and fatigue during the day.

  • Liver Fire Disturbing the Heart: Waking up suddenly, often between 1:00 AM and 3:00 AM, feeling hot, irritable, or having vivid, stressful dreams.

  • Heart and Kidney Disconnection: Difficulty staying asleep or frequent waking, often associated with night sweats, back pain, or "restless legs."

  • Food Stagnation: Disturbed sleep caused by a heavy, bloated stomach or acid reflux, where the "Stomach is disharmonious, so the sleep is restless."

Our Integrated Solutions

1. Specialized Sleep Inducing Acupuncture

Acupuncture is highly effective at shifting the body from the "fight or flight" (sympathetic) state to the "rest and digest" (parasympathetic) state. By targeting specific points such as Anmian (Peaceful Sleep) and Shenmen (Spirit Gate), we help:

  • Regulate the production of natural melatonin.

  • Lower evening cortisol levels that cause alertness.

  • Relax the physical tension in the neck and jaw that prevents deep sleep.

2. Calming Herbal Formulations

We provide customized herbal prescriptions using premium ingredients like Suan Zao Ren (Sour Jujube Seed) and Long Yan Rou (Longan Fruit). These formulas work to:

  • Nourish the Heart blood to "anchor" the spirit.

  • Clear "Internal Heat" that causes restlessness and tossing and turning.

  • Support the Liver’s role in blood storage to ensure uninterrupted sleep.

3. Auricular (Ear) Therapy

Small, natural seeds or tiny needles are placed on ear points corresponding to the brain and nervous system. This provides a continuous, gentle stimulus that you can activate by pressing throughout the day to reduce anxiety and prepare the brain for rest.

4. Meditative Breathing & Sleep Hygiene

Our practitioners provide guidance on "TCM Sleep Rituals," including specific breathing techniques and the ideal timing for meals and movement based on the TCM Body Clock.
