It is my pleasure to present the online course on YNSA (Yamamoto New Scalp Acupuncture), the system developed by Dr. Toshikatsu Yamamoto over more than half a century of research and clinical practice.
If you cannot attend my in-person courses, you now have the opportunity to learn this extraordinary method from the comfort of your home, at your own pace, with clear explanations. A method that has transformed the lives of thousands of patients worldwide.
I have designed this course just as I would have liked to receive it when I began my journey with YNSA: structured, practical, clinically rigorous, and infused with the passion that inspires me every day.
“Enjoy guaranteed access to the course for 6 months from the moment you register.”
Thanks to technological innovation and the use of artificial intelligence for dubbing, this course is now available in five languages with maximum fidelity and quality.
YNSA is a complete system of assessment, diagnosis, and acupuncture treatment.
It originated in the 1960s and was first presented in 1973 at the Ryodoraku Congress in Osaka. What began with five basic points on the forehead has evolved into a broad system of microsystems or somatotopies, located not only on the scalp but also in other areas of the body.
After auriculotherapy, YNSA is today the most widely practiced microsystem acupuncture worldwide.
Dr. Yamamoto —affectionately known as Toshi— revolutionized Japanese acupuncture. Trained as an anesthesiologist and gynecologist, he began treating patients with osteoarticular pain in his hometown of Nichinan. A fortunate experience, when he injected a patient without anesthetic and the pain disappeared, led him to explore acupuncture deeply and to develop his own innovative and effective method.
His hospital, built with dedication and perseverance, was the setting for more than 2,000 surgeries performed with acupuncture anesthesia —including cesarean sections, appendectomies, hysterectomies, and amputations— as well as countless treatments for hemiplegia and chronic pain.
Beyond his medical brilliance, Dr. Yamamoto is an example of humility, perseverance, compassion, and generosity as a teacher.
YNSA works with diagnostic, therapeutic, and diagnostic-therapeutic areas distributed throughout the body, especially in:
Among them, the Ypsilon points are particularly important. Located in the temporal region of the skull, they correspond to the internal organs according to Traditional Chinese Medicine (Zang-Fu), the meridians, and also to anatomical structures from a Western perspective.
Needles are usually retained for about 30 minutes. They are applied ipsilaterally in cases of musculoskeletal pain and contralaterally in cases of hemiplegia. The technique has very few contraindications and virtually no side effects.
I combine YNSA with other forms of acupuncture —Classical TCM, Neurofunctional Scalp Acupuncture, distal acupuncture, auriculotherapy, Tung acupuncture, Vietnamese acupuncture, or wrist and ankle acupuncture— together with complementary techniques such as electroacupuncture, photobiomodulation, laser, and Acutaping. This integrative approach enhances outcomes and broadens therapeutic possibilities.
YNSA has proven to be highly effective in:
In 2017, I had the privilege of accompanying Dr. Yamamoto during consultations at his rehabilitation clinic in Miyazaki and at his hospital in Nichinan. His life example, dedication to his patients, and passion for teaching left a deep mark on my path.
This course is also a tribute to my teacher, a recognition of his legacy and the generosity with which he has shared his knowledge with the world.
I have created this program with the same care and dedication I bring to my clinical, teaching, and research projects.
The online format allows you to:
More than a technique, YNSA is a comprehensive system that you can apply on its own or integrate with other natural therapies such as classical acupuncture or manual therapy.
I am an acupuncturist and manual therapist, trained in multiple natural techniques and specialized in acupuncture. My style integrates classical tradition with the most innovative approaches.
It will be my honor to accompany you on this learning journey and to share with you the legacy of Dr. Yamamoto.
