· Acupuncture for sleep ·
Sleep difficulties often stem from a nervous system that can’t switch into “rest” mode. Stress, anxiety, hormonal shifts or energy depletion can all play a role.
Common symptoms include:
· Trouble falling asleep (mind racing, feeling wired yet tired)
· Waking frequently (especially between 1-3 a.m.)
· Restless nights (tossing and turning, vivid dreams, night sweats)
· Early waking or waking unrefreshed
· Daytime fatigue, brain fog, heaviness, low motivation
How acupuncture supports better sleep:
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, good sleep is a mirror of internal balance. Disruptions in energy flow, circulation or organ harmony - especially in systems governing stress/rest - can lead to broken sleep.
Acupuncture helps by calming the nervous system, soothing the mind and restoring Yin-Yang balance, making it easier to fall asleep, stay asleep and wake up refreshed.
Sessions take place in my quiet practice space in the centre of Amsterdam. Treatments are tailored to what your body and system need in the moment. If you’re curious whether acupuncture could support you, feel free to get in touch.
