I’ve been treating a client with insomnia for over 2 years.
She first came to me with various aliments including headaches, stress, anxiety and sleepless nights.
Acupuncture is a great way of dealing with all these symptoms. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Heart, Liver and Spleen are all responsible for headaches, stress and anxiety and by plugging into these meridians an acupuncturist can change the flow of the channel and therefore remove stagnation along the energy lines and boost energy flow.
The effects of the treatment was seen after 1 session and took 4 sessions for headaches to go and for her sleep patterns to settle where she could enjoy a restful night.
1st treatment. Buddha triangle which consists for Pc6, Ht7 and L9. These together are a magical point that combats insomnia and anxiety. Yin Tang
Client reported sleeping better and headaches were not as intense, but still there.
2nd treatment, Buddha triangle, Yin Tang, St41, St8 Lv3, Li4, St36.
Client reported she felt much more grounded and headaches were much better. Sleeping was also better.
3rd treatments, Buddha triangle, Yin Tang, St41, St8, Lv3, Li4, St36
Client reported she felt less stressful, had made slight changes in her lifestyle and was a lot more motivated. Headaches gone, sleep much better. We backed off the treatments to 1 every 3 weeks.
4th treatment Buddha triangle, Yin Tang, St41, St8, Lv3, Li4, St36
Client reported that she felt great, her sleep was restful and all night long. She no longer had headaches and had energy to do things that she wanted to do.
She now comes for acupuncture session 4 times a year.
Her body reacted very well to the treatments given and she only returns every 3 months.
