Why AcuBliss for Insomnia

At AcuBliss, Dr. Amorette LaFranchi, DACM, helps clients find lasting relief from sleepless nights by addressing the root causes of insomnia. As a licensed acupuncturist, herbalist, and third-generation Curandera, she blends Traditional Chinese Medicine’s holistic wisdom with modern relaxation therapies to restore balance and promote deep, natural rest.

Whether your insomnia is due to stress, hormonal changes, chronic pain, or unknown causes, we create a tailored plan that works alongside your lifestyle and existing care to help you fall asleep more easily, stay asleep longer, and wake feeling refreshed.

How Acupuncture Helps with Insomnia

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, insomnia can be caused by imbalances in the Heart, Liver, Kidney, or Spleen systems, as well as disruptions in the flow of Qi. Acupuncture for insomnia works by:

Calming the nervous system and encouraging the “rest and digest” response

Regulating the body’s circadian rhythm

Reducing anxiety, pain, and other sleep-disrupting symptoms

Supporting the hormonal and neurotransmitter balance needed for restorative sleep

What to Expect at AcuBliss

Research shows that acupuncture can help regulate melatonin production, lower nighttime cortisol, and improve sleep efficiency. Combined with TCM’s focus on root-cause healing, it offers a natural and comprehensive approach to insomnia.

Many clients report feeling calmer and more relaxed after their very first session.

Sleep improvements may include falling asleep faster, waking less frequently, and experiencing more restorative sleep cycles.

Chronic insomnia often responds best to a series of weekly treatments before transitioning to maintenance sessions.

Amorette checks ALL of the boxes. Knowledgeable, easy to talk to, asks the right questions, puts you at ease and explains things so clearly! After battling with massive hot flashes for months that would come frequent and strong - Amorette had me regulated within minutes, like a hot flash off switch. No matter what ails you, I’m confident Amorette will help to not only regulate and heal, but you’ll leave each session with a better understanding of your own magical body 10/10 recommend ❤️

I have been seeing Dr. Amorette LaFranchi for many years and couldn’t be more grateful for her care. She has effectively treated my rheumatoid arthritis and provided incredible support throughout both of my pregnancies, from start to finish. Most recently, I have been visiting her for chronic pain management following an ankle sprain and fracture, and her treatments have made a real difference.

Her office is welcoming and incredibly calming, creating a perfect environment for healing. Dr. LaFranchi is a fantastic listener who genuinely cares and has a true passion for her work. I happily travel all the way from Broomfield to see her because of the quality of care she provides. The location is convenient, easy to access, and always has free parking available. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking compassionate and effective acupuncture care.
