Abstract:
Chronic insomnia is a prevalent sleeping problem that presents major treatment challenges. We present the case of a 37-year-old male patient with persistent insomnia who was treated with multiple hypnotic and psychotropic medications for 3 years with no noticeable improvement. The patient underwent treatment with integrative regimenal therapy in the form of Natul (irrigation therapy) and Massage therapy using Roghn e Kahu (Lactuluca sativa oil). Following the intervention, the patient reported increased sleep quality and stress reduction. PSQI (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) showed improvement in overall sleep quality during integrated therapy sessions and thereafter. The study found that combining Natul therapy with massage therapy can be an effective non-pharmacological treatment for chronic insomnia.
