Traditional Chinese medicine treatment of insomnia is based on the examination and diagnosis of the symptoms, and the treatment is based on the analysis of the four diagnostic information, such as liver fire disturbing the heart, phlegm fire disturbing the heart, heart-kidney disconnection, heart-spleen deficiency, heart-biliary qi deficiency, etc. The treatment is based on the principle of “tonifying the deficiency and dipping the real, adjusting the yin and yang of the internal organs”, and on this basis to calm the mind and fix the will. Some doctors may have some special subtypes according to their clinical experience, but it does not affect the treatment effect. The treatment of insomnia in TCM is broadly divided into pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies. Drug therapy includes herbal prescriptions, herbal dietary therapy, herbal compresses, aromatherapy, etc. Due to the individual differences of patients and the experience of various schools of Chinese medicine, the application of clinical prescriptions is flexible and variable, which requires doctors to treat individual patients according to the evidence. Non-pharmacological therapies include acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping and tui na, which act on the meridian points of the body to stimulate the meridian qi, run the qi and blood, and harmonize the yin and yang of the internal organs to achieve the effect of tranquilizing the heart and calming the mind. Among them, there are various methods of acupuncture, including milli-needle, electric needle, skin needle, intradermal needle, trigeminal needle, ear point pressure pills and other therapies. It can be seen that there are many methods of treating insomnia in Chinese medicine, but the current lack of market supervision and the propaganda of false information have caused confusion in this area of the market. For safety reasons, it is recommended that patients should choose a physician who is qualified in Chinese medicine for treatment.
