About Our Practice
White Cedar Acupuncture （雪松馆） is a quiet, private acupuncture clinic in Los Altos. Care is one-on-one, by appointment, and never rushed.
We focus on persistent, complex health concerns — problems that have been present for months or years, often involving more than one system of the body, in patients who have frequently already been through thorough conventional evaluation. Many of our patients come to us after other approaches have not resolved their concerns.
Our physicians both hold doctoral degrees in Traditional Chinese Medicine and are licensed by the State of California:
- Haolong Song, DTCM, L.Ac. — complex and persistent conditions, pain, internal medicine
- Sherry Yu, DTCM, L.Ac. — women's health, digestive health, pain, cosmetic acupuncture
We provide supportive acupuncture care for patients undergoing medical treatment, including patients in cancer care. Acupuncture is recommended in the 2022 clinical practice guideline of the Society for Integrative Oncology and the American Society of Clinical Oncology (SIO–ASCO) for cancer-related pain, aromatase inhibitor–related joint pain, and chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Our role is supportive and collaborative — we work alongside your medical team.
A first visit centers on careful assessment: a detailed history, tongue and pulse evaluation, and an understanding of how the concern affects your daily life. Treatment is individualized. Many patients notice changes during the visit itself. Longer-standing concerns are addressed over a course of visits, and we will share our honest observations with you along the way.
No treatment packages are required. Care proceeds visit by visit — you decide how to continue.
关于我们
雪松馆（White Cedar Acupuncture）是位于 Los Altos 的一家安静、私密的针灸诊所。预约制、一对一治疗，从容不迫。
我们专注于长期、复杂的健康问题——那些持续数月甚至数年、常常涉及多个身体系统、且多已接受过系统常规诊疗的困扰。许多病人是在其他方法未能解决问题后来到我们这里。
两位医师均拥有中医学博士学位，并持有加州针灸师执照：
- 宋浩龙，DTCM, L.Ac.——复杂与慢性病症、疼痛、中医内科
- Sherry Yu，DTCM, L.Ac.——女性健康、消化系统、疼痛、美容针灸
我们为正在接受医学治疗的病人提供支持性针灸照护，包括肿瘤治疗期的病人。国际整合肿瘤学会与美国临床肿瘤学会（SIO–ASCO）2022 年临床指南推荐针灸用于癌痛、芳香化酶抑制剂相关关节痛以及化疗所致周围神经病变。我们的角色是支持性与协作性的——与您的医疗团队并肩工作。
初诊以细致评估为中心：详尽的病史采集、舌脉诊察，以及了解困扰如何影响您的日常生活。治疗方案因人而异。许多病人在治疗过程中即能感受到变化；长期问题则按疗程逐步调理，我们会如实与您分享每一步的观察。
不设疗程套餐。治疗按次进行——如何继续，由您决定。
Haolong Song
Acupuncture
Haolong specializes in pain, sports injuries, neurological symptoms, and persistent chronic conditions that have not improved sufficiently with standard care.
He considers his work to be built on clear clinical judgment. Rather than treating only where symptoms appear, he looks for what is allowing the problem to persist and adjusts treatment precisely according to each patient’s actual response.
Haolong cares about results, and he respects the limits of medicine. Acupuncture is not appropriate for every condition. If treatment is not producing sufficient progress, he will say so directly and recommend a more appropriate next step.
Haolong’s goal is simple: reduce symptoms, restore function, and help patients need less treatment over time.
He is good at treating pain, sports injuries, neurological symptoms, and persistent conditions that have not improved with standard care.
Haolong’s approach is direct and individualized: identify what is driving the problem, treat precisely, and adjust based on each patient’s actual response—not a preset protocol.
He values results, clear communication, and his patients’ time. Acupuncture is not the right answer for every condition, and he will not pretend otherwise. If treatment is not producing meaningful progress, he will tell the patient directly and recommend a more appropriate next step.
The goal is simple: reduce symptoms, restore function, and help patients need less treatment over time.

Sherry Yu, L.Ac.
Sherry is a California-licensed acupuncturist whose clinical areas of focus include women’s health, musculoskeletal pain, digestive health, and overall wellness. She works with patients seeking support for menstrual and other gynecological concerns, joint and muscle discomfort, back and lower back pain, neck pain, digestive concerns, and long-standing health conditions. She also offers facial acupuncture for patients interested in a gentle and natural approach to facial care.
Sherry believes that effective care begins with understanding the individual as a whole. Her treatments are thoughtfully tailored to each patient’s symptoms, health history, lifestyle, and overall constitution. By combining acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine principles, she aims to address patients’ primary concerns while supporting greater balance and overall well-being.
Before pursuing acupuncture and Chinese medicine, Sherry earned her bachelor’s degree in Biology, providing her with a strong foundation in the biological sciences. She later completed extensive education and supervised clinical training in acupuncture and Chinese medicine in California and participated in advanced clinical observation at an affiliated hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University in Hangzhou. Sherry provides care in both English and Mandarin and strives to create a calm, respectful, and supportive experience for every patient.
