Every treatment begins with listening. YiYi takes time to understand your whole picture before deciding on a plan, and every session is one-on-one — you are always the only patient in the room.
Initial Consultation & Treatment — 60–90 minutes · $160
A thorough first visit: a detailed conversation about your health history and concerns, tongue and pulse diagnosis, and your first full treatment.
Follow-up Treatment — about 60 minutes · $130
Continued care that follows your progress and adjusts as your body responds.
10-session acupuncture package: $1,200
A note about deqi (得气): During acupuncture you may feel soreness, numbness, distension, heaviness, or a brief electric-like tingling — sometimes a sensation that seems to travel, for example down to the sole of the foot. These feelings vary from person to person, but soreness, numbness, distension and aching are the most common. This is called deqi: a normal response that shows the point is responding and is what the body needs. It is a good sign, not something to worry about, especially if you have never had acupuncture before.
A note about electroacupuncture: Electroacupuncture is included in your acupuncture session at no extra charge and may be used for pain conditions when appropriate. Please tell YiYi before treatment if you have a pacemaker or implanted defibrillator, are pregnant, have epilepsy, a bleeding disorder, or take blood-thinning medication, or if there is broken skin, ulceration, infection or inflammation in the treatment area. Please also tell her in advance if you have a heart stent or other metal implant, diabetes with reduced feeling (especially in the feet or legs), or are receiving chemotherapy. For chemotherapy patients: no cupping in the 48 hours before or 24 hours after chemotherapy; whether other treatments can be given is decided from your blood counts and your oncology team’s advice.
Treatments & modalities
- Acupuncture — fine, sterile, single-use needles; gentle and virtually painless technique.
- Smokeless Moxibustion — warming therapy without smoke, suitable for a clinic setting.
- Smokeless Moxibustion (stand-alone, without acupuncture) — $65 per session (about 30–45 minutes). Buy 10, get 1 free: $650 for 11 sessions.
A note about moxibustion: Smokeless moxibustion warms the skin with gentle heat. The treated area may become red or feel warm afterward, and in rare cases a small blister can appear. If the area stays sore or a blister forms, please let us know.
- Cupping — traditional fire cupping on the body to release tension and stagnation.
- Cupping (stand-alone, without acupuncture) — $55 per session (about 30 minutes). Buy 10, get 1 free: $550 for 11 sessions.
A note about cupping marks: Cupping often leaves round marks on the skin, from light pink to deep purple. This is a normal and expected response — in Chinese medicine, it reflects stagnation being drawn to the surface — and the marks are not injuries. They fade on their own within a few days to about a week.
- Cosmetic Acupuncture — $150 per session (about 90 minutes, face only). Facial acupuncture that supports the skin gradually, from the inside out. Herbal mask — add $30 per session. Cosmetic acupuncture is booked as its own session, separate from body acupuncture. Facial acupuncture works best as a course of treatment, twice a week. 10-session package: $1,380.
- Chinese Herbal Medicine — priced separately. Each formula is custom-blended for one person (one person, one formula), so the price is not fixed: it depends on the herbs prescribed. Precious herbs such as ginseng cost the most, while common herbs cost less. Your price is set case by case.
Her approach
When the body is depleted, YiYi first strengthens and tonifies — a needling approach inspired by the classic Shi Quan Da Bu (Ten Complete Great Tonifying) tradition — and then treats the specific condition. When the pattern is one of excess, she treats it directly. The plan always fits the person, never the other way around.
What we focus on
- Pain — back, neck and shoulder pain, joint pain, headaches
- Sleep & emotional wellbeing — insomnia, stress, anxiety, emotional balance
- Energy & digestion — low energy and weakness, fatigue, digestive discomfort
What to expect at your first visit
Your first visit lasts 60–90 minutes. We begin with an unhurried conversation about your health, followed by tongue and pulse diagnosis, then your treatment. The needles rest in place for about 20–30 minutes — most patients find this deeply relaxing. At the end, YiYi will talk honestly with you about a plan and what to expect over time.
Preparing for your visit:
- Please eat before you come — a normal meal at least 60 minutes beforehand, and please don’t overeat. Never arrive on an empty stomach. Eating too close to your visit can cause nausea, and needling while fasting can cause light-headedness (“needle shock”), especially at a first visit, and even more so if your blood sugar tends to run low. We always keep candy, chocolate, and warm brown-sugar water on hand just in case.
- Wear loose, comfortable clothing that is easy to change out of — you will change into a clean disposable gown for your treatment. You may also be asked to remove your socks so that points on the feet can be reached.
- Bring your own water cup if you can — we are happy to fill it with warm water for you.
Please note
YiYi Acupuncture is a Saint Cloud acupuncture and TCM clinic, by appointment only. Treatment location details are shared once your appointment is booked and confirmed. Traditional Chinese Medicine works gradually — we will talk honestly about what to expect at your first visit.
服务与价格
每一次治疗，都从倾听开始。YiYi会花时间了解您的整体状况再定方案，每次都是一对一——诊室里永远只有您一位病人。
初诊＋治疗——60–90 分钟 · $160：详尽的第一次看诊：完整的健康问询、舌诊脉诊，以及第一次完整治疗。
复诊治疗——约 60 分钟 · $130：跟进您的进展，随身体的反应调整方案。
针灸 10 次套餐：$1,200
关于得气的小说明：针灸时可能会有酸、麻、胀、痛的感觉，或者像电流一样的刺激感，有的人还会觉得气一下子从脚底跑出去，各种感觉因人而异，但主要是酸麻胀痛。这就叫得气，是身体对穴位有反应的正常现象，说明这个穴位正是身体需要的，是很好的反应，不用担心，尤其是第一次针灸的人，更不用害怕。
关于电针的小说明：电针包含在针灸治疗里，不另收费，治痛症时可能会根据情况使用。请在治疗前告诉 YiYi：装有心脏起搏器或除颤器、怀孕、癫痫、出血性疾病或正在吃抗凝药、治疗部位有破皮溃烂感染发炎的，电针可能不能用；有心脏支架或金属植入物、糖尿病感觉麻木（尤其是脚腿）、正在化疗的，也请提前说。化疗病人：化疗前 48 小时、化疗后 24 小时内不做拔罐，其他治疗能不能做，要按血象和肿瘤科医生的意见决定。
疗法：
- 针灸——一次性无菌细针，下针轻柔，几乎无痛。
- 无烟艾灸——没有烟的温灸，适合诊所环境。
- 无烟艾灸（单做，不扎针）——$65/次（约 30–45 分钟）。买十送一：付 $650 得 11 次。
关于艾灸的说明：无烟艾灸以温和的热力暖皮肤。治疗部位可能发红、发热，极少数情况下可能出现小水疱。如果一直疼或起了水疱，请告诉我们。
- 拔火罐——传统拔罐（用于身体），舒缓紧张与瘀滞。
- 拔火罐（单做，不扎针）——$55/次（约 30 分钟）。买十送一：付 $550 得 11 次。
关于拔罐的印子：拔罐后皮肤上常会留下圆形的印子，颜色从浅粉到深紫都有。这是正常反应——在中医看来，是瘀滞被拔到表层的表现——不是受伤留下的淤青。印子会在几天到一周左右自己慢慢消退。
- 面部美容针灸——$150/次（约 90 分钟，只做面部）。由内而外、循序渐进地改善肌肤状态。草药面膜——+$30/次。面部单独预约，不与身体针灸同一次做。面部针灸按疗程做效果最好，一周两次。10 次套餐：$1,380。
- 中药——另外收费、一人一方调配、价格不固定：看用的药材定价，人参这类贵重的药最贵，普通的药便宜，具体看情况定。
她的思路：身体虚弱时，YiYi先扶正固本——取法经典十全大补的针法思路——再针对性地治疗具体问题；属于实证的，则直接对证施治。方案永远跟着人走，而不是让人迁就方案。
重点调理范围：疼痛——腰背、颈肩、关节疼痛、头痛；睡眠与情绪——失眠、压力、焦虑、情绪调理；体力与消化——乏力体虚、疲劳、消化不适。
初诊须知：初诊时长 60–90 分钟。我们会先从容地聊一聊您的健康状况，再做舌诊和脉诊，然后开始治疗。留针约 20–30 分钟，大多数人会觉得非常放松。结束时，YiYi会和您坦诚沟通后续的调理计划和可以期待的过程。
来之前请注意：一定要先吃饭——至少提前 60 分钟吃一顿正常的饭，不要吃得过饱，千万不要空腹来。吃得太近容易恶心，空腹扎针容易晕针，第一次来、或本身容易低血糖的人尤其要注意。诊所里常备糖果、巧克力和红糖水以防万一，但提前吃饭才是最好的预防。请穿宽松、方便更换的衣服——治疗时会换上干净的一次性病服。也可能需要脱掉袜子，方便取脚上的穴位。可以的话请带上自己的水杯——我们很乐意为您接温水，这样更干净卫生。
温馨提示：伊医针灸是伊紫瑄在佛罗里达州圣克劳德的针灸诊所，预约制；就诊地点详情在预约确认后提供。中医调理是渐进的过程——初诊时我们会坦诚和您沟通可以期待的效果。
