Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of 6-weeks of relaxation acupressure compared to stimulating acupressure or a standard of care on sleep and daytime functioning. Also, to evaluate the ability of teaching acupressure using web-based applications. It is believed that self-administered relaxation acupressure will result in improvements of sleep quality and quantity as compared to stimulating acupressure or a standard of care.

Primary Outcome

Insomnia will be assessed/determined by daily sleep/wake diaries and the Insomnia Severity Index questionnaire. Sleep Diary: insomnia = \<85% sleep efficiency ratio. Daytime functioning will be determined by the Fatigue Severity Scale of Sleep Disorders (FSS).
