What treatment costs


Every patient comes with a different health history. That is why your first visit is longer. Yuanling takes time to learn about your health, your lifestyle, and what you hope to change. Follow-up visits build on that first conversation.

The fee within each range depends on the treatment you receive. We are always glad to tell you before your visit.

Acupuncture / NAET

  • First visit90 minutes
    • Evaluation$120
    • Acupuncture treatment$90–120

Your first visit includes an initial evaluation and an acupuncture treatment. If your insurance has no acupuncture coverage, you will receive an insurance discount: your initial evaluation fee is $120, each acupuncture treatment fee is $90, and the total is $210. With insurance coverage, you pay the $120 evaluation fee plus your copay for the acupuncture treatment.

A follow-up appointment is about an hour. Without insurance coverage, the fee is $90 after the insurance discount. With insurance coverage, you pay your copay.
