TCM for Skin Conditions

Having skin problems like acne, psoriasis or eczema? TCM helps by addressing internal imbalances through herbal remedies and acupuncture, healing your skin from within.

Here are some of the skin conditions TCM can help (but not limited to):

Eczema
Acne
Psoriasis
Rashes
Hives

Acupuncture

Acupuncture can also help by gently inserting thin, sterilised needles at specific acupuncture points (acupoints) to undo Qi and blood flow blockages in your body. Acupuncture targets the acupoints around your body corresponding to particular meridians related to your skin condition.

Herbal Medicine

TCM treatments rely on herbal medicines that aim to expel external pathogens from the body and gradually restore balance by improving blood flow and clearing up blockages in the meridians. Clearing these blockages ensures your body has a healthy flow of Qi (vital energy) to maintain internal balance and overall wellness. Alongside herbal medicines, we also prescribe topical applications such as herbal ointments to relieve discomfort and enhance healing.

Moxibustion

If needed, acupuncture can be accompanied by moxibustion, which is the burning of mugwort leaves close to the skin. Moxibustion offers benefits similar to acupuncture in using heat to remove internal blockages and promote healthy blood and Qi circulation.

Dr. Bai is very professional. Acupuncture quickly relieves nerve headaches, and cupping is also very decompressive!

After years of struggling with infertility, Physician Na Yi Ting made it possible for me to finally get pregnant. Despite health and age challenges, her treatment and acupuncture helped me create high-quality embryos, giving me hope and a chance to start a family.

Cozy set up, but quite strong TCM herbal odor in the air of the whole clinic. They serve you water or tea upon arrival.
We feel comfortable with Dr Chua consultation where she is patient and nice to talk to. She will understand our weekly condition and make necessary adjustments in the treatment and medication. She is flexible.
We look forward to good fertility news with Yi TCM team, and would recommend to people in need to try.

The clinic is really pretty and welcoming and the whole visit starts with a warm tea.
Dr Na has this really empathetic and grounded vibe and really really listens when you tell her the issues. I think that’s what makes her such a good clinician.
She is spot on with the diagnosis and she literally cured me for two ailments in one visit.
The last time I was there, I had pain in my right shoulder. She did acupuncture for me and the pain went away within 1 week. She also taught me home exercises so my shoulder won’t cramp again.
Went back 2 days ago for menstrual issues and again, the issue went away 2 days after k saw her.
The clinic is also clean and sterile and I feel very safe under her good hands. Amazing experience.

I came to know about Yi TCM from my friend who was trying to conceive. She was successful after seeing physician Aileen Chua and another friend was also successful. I came more for my overall well-being and I believe strongly in TCM. The staff in the clinic are very friendly and helpful and Physician Aileen Chua is very patient and approachable. She answers all my questions and will also ask me probing questions to make sure that she has all the information she needs. Her consultation is often therapeutic for me, knowing that I am good hand. The cost of the therapy is also very reasonable, I strongly recommend Yi TCM for anyone who is trying to conceive or for your general well-being as a woman.
