Reclaim Your Natural Sleep—Your Body Knows How, It Just Needs Support
Find Sleep Naturally Through Whole-Body Balance, Not Endless Trials
You're tired of being treated like your sleep is just another checkbox...
You've diligently followed all the advice: eliminated caffeine, created the perfect sleep environment, tried meditation, taken countless supplements, and maybe even reluctantly filled that sleep medication prescription.
Yet sleep remains elusive. You lie awake at night while your partner sleeps soundly, or you wake at 2am with a racing mind that won't quiet down. Morning comes, and you face another day feeling like you're moving through fog.
The most frustrating part? Nobody seems to understand the whole picture.
When you express concerns about your sleep, healthcare providers offer quick-fix solutions without exploring deeper connections or might brush them off as "normal aging" or stress. Friends share what worked for them as if all sleep issues are the same. And each new specialist treats your symptoms in isolation, missing how everything connects.
Meanwhile, you worry about the long-term effects on your brain health and cognitive function. As someone navigating life's transitions—whether career changes, an empty nest, or hormonal shifts—quality sleep feels more essential than ever, yet more elusive.
Your sleep challenges are telling a deeper story about your health.
Sleep doesn't exist in isolation. It's intimately connected to your hormones, digestion, stress response, and life circumstances. When one area is out of balance, your sleep often bears the burden.
The key isn't adding more to your sleep routine—it's understanding what your body is trying to tell you through your sleep patterns, and responding with precision rather than guesswork.
Hi! I’m Dr. Damiana Corca
For over 15 years, I've helped hundreds of people reclaim restful sleep by addressing what other practitioners miss—the connections between sleep and your whole body's health.
As a Doctor of Acupuncture, Functional Medicine practitioner and Breathwork facilitator, I believe in listening to what your body is trying to tell you through your sleep patterns. Whether you're dealing with hormone fluctuations, digestive issues, life transitions, or chronic stress—these factors all affect how you sleep.
My approach blends gentle acupuncture, targeted supplementation based on actual testing (not guesswork), and practical breathwork techniques that help your body remember how to sleep naturally.
"Dr. Corca was the first practitioner who looked at my lab results, listened to my whole story, and helped me understand how my digestion, hormones, and stress were all connected to my sleep. For the first time, I felt like someone saw the complete picture." —Anne, 58

The Journey from Sleep Struggle to Restful Nights…
Before finding a whole body approach.
Waking throughout the night or too early in the morning
Feeling anxious as bedtime approaches, dreading another night of tossing and turning
Accumulating supplements and sleep gadgets that promised results but delivered disappointment
Canceling plans due to fatigue and brain fog
Worrying about how poor sleep is affecting your health and aging
After embracing a whole body approach.
Sleeping through the night and waking naturally refreshed
Following a streamlined protocol designed specifically for your unique biochemistry
Feeling confident as you prepare for bed, knowing your body remembers how to sleep
Having energy to fully engage in your relationships and activities
Understanding the connections between your sleep and overall health
“Sleep is a point of pride for me now, and I could not have always said that. I used to frantically try everything—taking so many different supplements and still not sleeping. Now I understand my body better, and I sleep better than I ever have.” ”
