Sleep & Recovery
Good sleep is where healing happens — it’s when your body repairs tissue, calms inflammation, and resets your nervous system. I help people who struggle to fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake up feeling restored. When we improve your sleep, everything else gets better too: pain, energy, mood, and recovery.
Conditions I Treat
- Stress & Anxiety — a wired nervous system that keeps you up at night; treatment to help you unwind and rest deeply.
- Headaches & Migraines — poor sleep and head pain feed each other; I work to break the cycle.
- Neck Pain — tension that builds through the day and ruins your night; targeted treatment for real relief.
My Approach
I treat sleep as a foundation, not a luxury. Orthopedic acupuncture is excellent at shifting the nervous system out of fight-or-flight and into rest-and-repair mode — which is exactly what quality sleep requires. With a functional medicine lens, I also look at the factors that may be sabotaging your rest: pain, stress load, evening habits, and recovery routines. Better sleep means better healing, and that’s a win for every condition I treat.
Supplements I often suggest
For sleep, these are the supplements I suggest most often in my practice:
- Insomnitol (Designs for Health) — Botanicals and neurotransmitter precursors for restful sleep and relaxation.
- TriMag Supreme Night (Designs for Health) — Three absorbable magnesium forms plus botanicals for sleep quality and duration.
- Taurine+Glycine Powder (Designs for Health) — Calming amino acids that support sleep, memory, and recovery.
