Abstract Sleeping disorders have been troubling human beings with their continuous involvement in increased stress-level activities. Despite the technological advancement of practices for its diagnosis, assessment and treatment, these have been posing challenges to medical science. The present paper therefore attempts to critically review the valuable research contributions of scholars, especially on two approaches for the treatment of insomnia: hypnotherapy and cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES). The review framework operates on the themes of mechanisms of action, treatment outcomes and efficacy of these approaches. Following a systematic method for the inclusion and exclusion of research papers, the shortlisted 26 papers reveal helpful insights about the differential impact of the application of hypnotherapy and CES. Wherein, the former approach is observed to promote informed decision-making about the efficacy of insomnia management strategies, while CES seems to demand further research.
