Good questions

Sleep: your questions

Can acupuncture help with insomnia?
Many people find acupuncture helpful for falling asleep and staying asleep, and research in this area is growing. We see it as gentle support alongside the care you get from your doctor.
Will I really fall asleep on the table?
Plenty of people do. The treatment room is quiet and calm, and the session itself is deeply relaxing.
I wake up at 3 a.m. every night. Can you help?
Early waking is one of the things we hear about most, especially with stress and perimenopause. We'll look at what's behind it and tailor your care.
Can I keep taking my sleep medication?
Yes. Please don't change prescribed care on your own. Acupuncture is meant to complement it.
How soon will I sleep better?
Some people notice a change after the first few sessions, while others need a consistent series. We'll set a plan together.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes, though coverage varies from person to person. Share your details and we will check your acupuncture benefits and get back to you within a day or two.
