YNSA

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

YNSA stands for Yamamoto New Scalp Acupuncture (Yamamoto New Scalp Acupuncture) and is an independent acupuncture method using a somatotope in the sense of a micro acupuncture system.

Emergence

The YNSA was developed by the Japanese doctor Toshikatsu Yamamoto in the 1960s. Yamamoto presented the main components of the YNSA at that time, the five base points (A, B, C, D and E) for the first time in 1973 at a Japanese Ryodoraku congress. The base points are assigned to specific body regions, for example the entire upper extremities are treated via base point C, while base point D is assigned to the lower extremities.

methodology

Since 1985, the YNSA has also been working with somatotopias and extra points, initially primarily on the skull. Connections to body regions, body functions and meridians of Chinese acupuncture are assigned to the individual zones of the somatotopia . The points to be needled are determined by palpation, abdomen and neck diagnostics. For example, if the kidney point hurts from pressure on the neck, the associated Y point on the temple is needled. If this needle is placed correctly, the pain on the neck will go away, providing immediate control for the correct fit of the needle.

indication

The range of indications is identical to classic acupuncture treatments and mainly includes pain therapy in the musculoskeletal system and neurological diseases such as paralysis ( paresis ) and speech disorders after a stroke . The YNSA requires special additional training and is used worldwide in both outpatient and inpatient areas and in the rescue service. At the Asia Pacific Stroke Conference 2014 she was represented as an integral part with several lectures (APSC 2014).
