Clinic Services

The Yu Wen Clinic welcomes people of all ages with a wide range of health issues and wellness needs to experience the unique approach to body, mind and spirit offered by Classical Chinese Acupuncture. The clinic offers a series of sessions that consists of an initial assessment followed by 12 weeks of acupuncture treatments. Advanced students in our Acupuncture Program, supervised by licensed faculty, provide treatments for patients.

The fee for the 13-week series is $360; $150 for senior citizens (over 65) and SSI recipients. Payment in the form of a check or money order made payable to the Swedish Institute must be sent with the Registration Form. Please do not send cash. A $50 fee will be charged for checks returned for insufficient funds.

Please call 212.924.5900 ext. 130 during clinic hours to inquire about availability of a single appointment time.
