Another night staring at the ceiling. You toss, turn, and count the hours until sunrise. When sleep finally comes, it’s shallow and restless. The next day, you’re exhausted, unfocused, and irritable. Medications can knock you out, but they often leave you groggy or dependent on pills just to get rest. At Advanced Holistic Center, we help you reset your body’s natural sleep rhythm with acupuncture treatments that calm the mind, relax the body, and promote deep, restorative sleep.
As New York’s premier destination for insomnia acupuncture therapy, we treat all types of sleep disturbances, including difficulty falling asleep, frequent waking, early morning awakening, and restless sleep patterns. Our goal is to help you wake feeling truly refreshed.
Insomnia can stem from stress, hormonal changes, chronic pain, overactive thoughts, or nervous system imbalances. Conventional treatments often address symptoms without fixing the root cause.
Acupuncture works by regulating the body’s stress response, calming the mind, and improving the quality of sleep cycles. By stimulating specific points, we help balance hormones like melatonin and cortisol, promote the release of natural calming neurotransmitters, and improve circulation to the brain.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, insomnia can be linked to imbalances such as liver qi stagnation, heart yin deficiency, or an overactive mind caused by heat in the heart and liver meridians. Acupuncture restores balance in these systems, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep.
A meta-analysis found that acupuncture significantly improved sleep quality, reduced time to fall asleep, and increased total sleep time in people with insomnia.
Harvard Medical School studies have shown that acupuncture can lower sympathetic nervous system activity, which reduces the “fight or flight” response that often keeps people awake at night.
Research from the University of Toronto demonstrated that patients receiving acupuncture for chronic insomnia had improved sleep efficiency and reduced nighttime awakenings compared to those receiving standard care alone.
Since 2004, we have treated thousands of patients struggling with insomnia, from stress-related sleeplessness to long-term chronic cases. Our practitioners are trained in both modern and traditional techniques for restoring healthy sleep patterns.
We work alongside mental health professionals, primary care doctors, and sleep specialists to create well-rounded treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs.
Our Brooklyn and Financial District clinics are easy to reach, with appointment times that fit your schedule, including evenings and weekends.
We accept most commercial insurance plans and handle claim submissions for you, allowing you to focus on your recovery and not paperwork.
Your evaluation includes an in-depth discussion of your sleep history, stress levels, daily habits, and any other health concerns. We look for underlying patterns that contribute to insomnia, whether related to energy imbalances, emotional stress, or physical discomfort.
Specific acupuncture points are chosen to quiet an overactive mind, relax tense muscles, and regulate the body’s circadian rhythm. Treatments may also improve digestion and reduce pain if these issues are contributing to poor sleep.
We may recommend cupping therapy to release neck and shoulder tension, herbal formulas to nourish the heart and calm the spirit, and gentle breathing or mindfulness techniques to support relaxation at home. For patients with pain-related insomnia, additional therapies target inflammation and discomfort.
Your first appointment lasts 90 minutes and includes a detailed consultation and your initial acupuncture session. You will be positioned comfortably in a quiet treatment room designed to encourage relaxation. Many patients feel calmer and more at ease after the first treatment, with deeper sleep often improving within the first few weeks.
Treatment frequency varies. For recent onset insomnia, one to two sessions per week may be enough. Chronic insomnia may require several weeks of regular sessions before transitioning to a maintenance schedule.
How many sessions are needed for insomnia?
Most patients notice improvements within 6 to 10 sessions, though chronic cases may require more.
How quickly will I see results?
Some patients sleep better after the first treatment, while others notice gradual improvements over several weeks.
Does insurance cover acupuncture for insomnia?
Yes. We accept most commercial insurance and submit claims on your behalf.
Is acupuncture for insomnia painful?
No. The needles are very thin, and most patients find treatments relaxing.
Can I stop taking sleeping pills if I do acupuncture?
Many patients reduce or stop medication under their doctor’s guidance after starting acupuncture, but this should be done gradually and with medical supervision.
What if I don’t have insurance?
We provide transparent pricing and offer package options for ongoing care.
You deserve restful, uninterrupted sleep. With our acupuncture treatments, you can calm your mind, restore balance to your body, and wake up feeling energized and ready for the day ahead.
Schedule your consultation today and discover how acupuncture for insomnia can help you reclaim your nights.

Can’t say enough. My husband and I have seen instant improvement in our health. The staff are nothing shy of INCREDIBLE. You don’t feel like just another number – they are warm and caring. Highly recommend to make this place a part of your self care regimen!!!!! Thank you healers!!!!
Dr. Logman is quite incredible! I’m an individual who is very active and likes to push physical boundaries in training … Coming from Long Island, I was certainly pretty jacked up physically, but within one session, I felt significantly better… She’s 1000% worth seeing regardless of your location. Thank you for actually being the healers we need!
I was in such great hands with BK. As a lifelong sufferer of mental illness, acupuncture made me feel like a million bucks. Just so you know, you need more than 1 visit to recover from whatever ailments. Now that I’ve had 5, I feel like a whole new person. So glad this place exists! Your health is your wealth, after all. I’ll be back for more!
Dr. Logman and her entire staff are all super nice and knowledgeable. I have been experiencing on and off back spasms for a really long time and feel like I may finally be in inching towards healing my lower back! Every session so far has left me feeling better and more relaxed.
The whole staff are friendly and helpful and have created a calm environment with great healing energy. BK, my acupuncturist, is a great listener and in addition to always making me feel great with his work offers helpful suggestions and exercises to work on between sessions.
Dr. Orna was absolutely fabulous! The whole team was welcoming and professional. They walked me through my problem areas and catered an amazing personalized experience based on my needs. I will definitely be back!
My favorite acupuncture practitioners work here. Definitely book Orna, BK and Rimma. (And Irinia, of course, when she’s in NYC) They’re excellent at treating chronic joint pain, mental/ addiction issues and neuropathy. But also go if you need an immune system boost, detox after drinking or have low energy levels. This is also the place to go, if like me, you’re jumpy with needles. They’re very skilled at making it a painless experience
The Adv. Holistic Center is incredible and really changed my life here in the city. Highly recommend for anyone experiencing physical pain, emotional regulation needs, overall wellness and wellbeing or anything in between including pilates and physical therapy needs. Yhenni who works at the desk, is so kind and helpful and always welcoming. She is quick to help you with any scheduling needs or questions. She is very knowledgeable about all things advanced holistic center! I am lucky to have received treatment from Dr Irina, who travels back and forth to her offices here in the city and in Miami, while she was here. I have received treatment here for my chronic migraines, TMJ pain, and emotional regulation, and Pilates work. I’m so grateful to have worked with Dr. Irina who is an incredible practitioner and Pilates instructor. Every experience with her was incredibly healing and treated with the utmost care. I always leave feeling better than when I arrived. The power of acupuncture and eastern medicine to help your body heal itself, is quite magical. The reformer pilates work is equally amazing- I left feeling 6 inches taller and stronger. In 3 days, my TMJ pain was fixed, and migraines decreased. I even received a comprehensive list of foods that will help and hinder my migraines so I am able to implement change in my daily life to see improvements from the root of the problem! My chronic migraines have decreased for the first time in 10+ years with NO PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION! I can without a doubt say this practice has contributed for the betterment of my overall quality of life and care for myself. All thanks to the amazing work of Dr Irina and her staff at the Advanced Holistic Centers. I’m so grateful to have found such a wonderful, healing space! I recommend this space to my family and friends both in Florida, and the city.
Love this practice! I’ve been receiving treatments since June at the NYC locations and have worked with Rimma, Gary, and even Irina herself. Thanks so much for such gentle and loving care. I really have been trying to give my belly, uterus, ovaries, and overall body some love throughout the day, minding my breathing and really focusing on the tools each practitioner has given me. I loved our session on monday so much, thank you for that time. One of the very best acupuncture snoozes I’ve ever had!
I’ve been coming here for quite some time now and I must say, from the admin to the doctors, everyone is amazing. Either Anna or Yhenni will greet you with a smile and take care of all your admin needs. I have never received a treatment that I didn’t like. This is why I continue to go back. Today, Orna treated me and she was absolutely amazing. She goes above and beyond and is always spot on with treatments.
Beautiful clinic and amazing providers. Im a physical therapist and used my body a lot for work, often resulting in low back pain and shoulder/neck pain. I always come to see Orna for great trigger point acupuncture. She’s also helped me with gastro and sleep issues. Highly recommend
Honestly she has the golden touch. My lower back was killing me could barely stand straight. Even sneezing would hurt. But Just after 1 session I felt alive again. Would highly recommend anyone who has lower back pain or any pain.
Outstanding and proffessional clinic. From the service and approach of the customer coordinatour through the Most . proffessional and sensitive doctor I went in with stressed muscles hardly able to move my leg and came out walking almost as usual after only 2 visits Highly reccomend
Suffering from back and neck pain, I finally decided to see Dr. Irina Logman. I can’t believe the immediate pain relief after only 1 session of acupuncture and manual therapy. Not only did the pain go away, I felt revitalized. I will definitely continue treatments with Dr. Logman. I highly recommend the Advanced Holistic Center for all your holistic care needs. I highly recommend seeing Orna! She will make your body melt.
This place miraculous!! I am so grateful and happy that have found this clinic. I’ve been in so much pain and illness with my digestive issues since moving to the United States in 2019. I’ve gone through three gastroenterologists who while experts, only treated symptoms of what has become a chronic problem with over medication and poor diet (there’s something about American food and ingredients that mess up my digestion). Rimma has been treating me since I’ve signed up for acupuncture. She’s a professional but also very caring and warm. She’s done amazing work with my digestive system, muscle pain, and migraine complimenting acupuncture with cupping and gua sha. She’s also treated me when I had colds and also my occasional muscle pain from exercising. Dr. Irina treated me in one session where she used electrolysis which resulted to the best releasing cleanse I’ve had in a very long time. I look forward to my biweekly sessions especially on Sundays as it’s my self-care day. I feel healed but I’m still in my journey towards become holistically healthy. I can’t thank this place enough.
