Acupuncture is a type of energy medicine with proven results in many conditions that have become chronic in our society today. Insomnia is one of those conditions and modern life with its built-in stresses have made things worse. Managing stress and identifying its root causes is the best way to address insomnia. Acupunture will help alliviate the symptoms but your sister is better off also trying to find the root cause of her symptom. Is she working too much? Does she have a high-speed life that prevents her from practicing self-care such as meditation, yoga, good nutrition, breathing exercises, a positive outlook in life, etc. Acupunture cannot address any of those, but it will provide a temporary fix. I suggest addressing the possible causes and work in complement with acupunture or even better, acupressure. But above all, improve nutrition and manage stress by using techniques such as those I mentioned above. I also suggest checking the acupuncturist's credentials!
