Brian Kwon Acupuncture Most of us have experienced sleep difficulty at least once due to high stress or anxiety. This temporary insomnia usually goes away once the stress is relieved. If the stress cannot be relieved and the insomnia becomes chronic, the body often shows similar symptoms to the overactive sympathetic nervous system.
You could have symptoms such as indigestion, gas in your stomach, or a sensation of stuffiness in your abdominal area. You tend to be more sensitive, feel heat in your face, or get annoyed easily. Sometimes, you could also experience stiff neck, red eyes, or heart palpitations. When it gets worse, you could also feel depression.
East Asian Medicine, by using acupuncture and herbs, helps stop insomnia by diminishing the overactive sympathetic nervous system.
