Of all the unwelcome symptoms of menopause, sleep disturbance is perhaps the most frustrating. Just when you should be winding down to enjoy a more settled pace of life, menopause insomnia strikes, leaving you fatigued, irritable and unable to make the most of your middle years. Approximately 60% of women report sleeplessness during menopause, but it is not something you have to simply accept and put up with. There are plenty of things you can try to improve your night’s sleep and ensure you are ready to face whatever challenges life throws at you the next day.

Chinese herbal medicine aim to treat insomnia by restoring yin-yang harmony and a balanced state of mind. Normally benefit should be expected after several weekly acupuncture treatments with many reporting an immediate improvement after the second session. Having said this, Chinese herbal medicine is often recommended to those who have suffered long time (months, even years, or more than ten years). With tailored (individually prescribed) herbal medicine taken daily, patients usually find their sleep improved quicker and stayed longer.
