Yamamoto New Scalp Acupuncture

Beschrijving

Background
Yamamoto New Scalp Acupuncture (YNSA) is named after the Japanese physician, Dr. Toshikatsu Yamamoto, who
developed this acupuncture system in 1973. Since its introduction, YNSA has advanced with the discovery of additional
acupuncture points, which are mainly located on the scalp. YNSA is used to treat neurological conditions, and is both
effective and immediate in in stroke patients with pain and/or restricted mobility. As a result, the use of YNSA has increased
and has become the most frequently used form of acupuncture. YNSA comprises basic acupuncture points (somatopes)
mainly on the scalp, as well as on other body regions. In addition to providing symptomatic relief, YNSA can sometimes be
curative therapy.

YNSA which is also called “neuroacupuncture”, was developed in 1973 by doctor Toshikatsu Yamamoto.
Yamamoto discovered that using acupuncture on specific points on the scalp effects sensory and motor nerves in other
places in the body. Thus, for example, it is possible to treat pain in the hand, using an acupuncture point on the scalp which
