Here's something worth knowing: in a randomized study, about 8 in 10 people receiving acupuncture saw real improvements in their sleep—compared to only half of those taking common sleep medication (Chen, 2022).
What makes the difference?
Acupuncture doesn't just knock you out for the night.
It works by naturally boosting your melatonin levels, calming an overactive nervous system, and supporting deeper, more consistent sleep cycles—helping you fall asleep easier and stay asleep longer.

Combine gentle acupuncture with practical bedtime tips you can use when those restless 3 a.m. wake-ups happen.
