Chairman of YNSA (Yamamoto New Scalp Acupuncture) Association
Although called “new”, YNSA exists already almost 50 years and has been changed, or
new Points added many times.
Starting off with 5 Basic Points situated along the frontal hairline. Used mainly against
pain, occasionally also for internal organ disfunction.
Sensory Points, Eyes, Nose and Mouth. situated on the forehead in a line down fromthe A Point.. For treatment of Sensory Organs.
Y-Points mainly for internal disorders, situated in the temporal regions on both sides.

Diagnostic Points were found on the abdomen and the neck, to ensure which Point has
to be treated, as well as after needling, to check that the treated Point was exact .
Brain Points are situated on the frontal scalp. Cerebrum-Point above the Basic A-Point,
Cerebellum-Point in posterior position and Basal Ganglion-Point in between. like inthe anatomic order
12 Cranial nerves are bilateral to the scalp Midline starting just above the basic A Point
with the olfactorius , leading posterior for a length of about 6 cm.
Because it was difficult for some participants to recognize the Neck Diagnostic Points, andAbdominal Diagnostic Points are rather time consuming because undressing andlying on the examination bed I worked on finding yet something else, that are theUpper Extremity diagnostic Points, easy to recognize but not as precise as the
Neck diagnosis.
All YNSA Points are represented on both sides of the scull as well as in Yin frontal
position, and Yang in the posterior position about 2 cm. lower, over the lambdoidal
suture.

Summary

Hirohisa ODA LAc PhD
IFRM Vice-President, Mahoroba TOKYO
Former President of MEIJI COLLEGE OF ORIENTAL MEDICINE (MCOM) -in Berkeley
California USA.-

Ryodoraku autonomic nervous system therapy was invented by the late Yoshio
Nakatani, MD, Ph.D in around 1950. It is termed THAT Ryodoraku is thescientific acupuncture.

There are various acupuncture schools in Oriental

Medicine, and it shall be discussed with the school selected by Dr. Nakatani,and how it was applied to, and different from Ryodoraku. The characteristic
point of Ryodoraku is to measure the skin electric resistance on the
representative point. The skin part where the electric current can flow easily,
and where the electric current flows in reactive electric permeable point,
Hanno Ryodo Point, are shown with electro photography.

The relation

between Ryodoraku and skin dermatome shall be discussed. A study resultof the correlation between RR interval and the average of Ryodoraku on theChart, and the statistical analysis among electric measurement values on the
Ryodoraku representative points shall be introduced.

Needle is inserted clinically to stimulate not only the skin, but muscle also. The
tissue injury by needling with micro direct current that can give more effectthan simple mechanical stimulation and the tissue shall be shown.

The

definition of the stimulation, more effective electro stimulator, andmeasurement system shall be discussed for the future scientific Ryodoraku.

良導絡自律神経調整療法は、1950年ころ故中谷義雄博士により始められた刺激療法であり、東洋医学の科学化であると称されている。鍼を用いた東洋医学における流派は各種あるが、中谷氏が選んだ流派とその応用と良導絡との違いを示す。
良導絡の特徴は、代表測定点の皮膚電気抵抗を測定することである。皮膚における電気が流れやすい部位、また反応良導点ではどのように電気が流れているのかを電気写真で示す。皮膚デルマトームと良導絡の関係を考察し、RR間隔と良導絡代表測定点平均値との関係を述べ、さらに、各良導絡代表測定間の統計学的な相関を論じる。
臨床では皮膚のみならず筋肉を刺激するために鍼を刺入する。機械的刺激よりも効果の高い直流電気鍼による組織損傷を示す。刺激について論じてより効率の高い電気刺激装置を提唱するとともに、新しい測定器機器について触れる
ことにより将来の良導絡のあり方について述べる。

PurposeThe incidence of Parkinsonism, one of the so-called intractable diseases, has in recent years
increased. Its symptoms are reportedly due to the gradual degeneration of the nervous
system characterized by tremor at rest (a tremor that occurs when the muscles are not used),
and muscle tonus (muscular rigidity) slowing of voluntary movements.We examined theemission of biophotons from the body of external acupuncture during application in order toactivate releasing of the chemical transmitters. Here we report the results of measuring theeffect of acupuncture with its characteristics of extremely weak photoemissions from the bodyviewed as an attempt for the physical recovery

Methods
Acupuncture was performed for patients with the above described symptoms, measuring theemission of biophotons from the body with an appropriate measuring device. The
measurements were performed at the tip of the index finger of the right hand close to the nailbed at location of the acupoint LI-1. The measurement was performed for each person over a
period of 500 seconds.

Results
The figures show a comparison of the tremor of the index finger of the right hand before andafter acupuncture. Before treatment there was a fine tremor of the finger tip and spasm of thefingers (before treatment). The testee was a man and the selected treatment location
included multiple acupoints below the right shoulder stimulated by inserting needles,
performing the sparrow-pecking technique and subsequently retaining the needles for 3 to 5
minutes. After that the spasms stopped (after treatment).

Discussion and conclusions
There is a large body of data from numerous patients pertaining to the use of western
medications, but research from an oriental medical standpoint using acupuncture therapy has
just begun. For the evaluation of the effect of the acupuncture therapy the collection of further
data from more testees in the future will probably clarify the efficacy of the acupuncture
therapy.

Haruna SAGA, Mieko NAGUMO
Nagumo Acupuncture and Moxibustion Clinic (Japan)

Objectives:
We examined acupuncture treatment for three patients with dizziness.

Patient 1: 41-year-old female.
Initial consultation (IC): March, 201X. Chief complaint (CC): Dizziness. Past history (PH):Meniere’s Syndrome at 21 years. History of present illness (HPI): Benign paroxysmal
positional vertigo five years previous to IC. Present illness (PI): Dizziness when moving. Rightneck-muscle induration, tinnitus, headache, insomnia, cold lower limbs, low back pain, poor
appetite, edema. Treatment: F23（LR3）,F36（KI3）,F19（SP9）. HM26（GV20）,F525（GB20）,F532（GB12）F524, and（GB21）to alleviate neck/shoulder stiffness (all threecases). Needles: 0.16mm diameter, 30 mm length, retained ten minutes. Course: Treatment
three times/ three months after IC alleviated dizziness. Dizziness recurred March one year
after IC. Treatment three times/ two months alleviated dizziness. No recurrence.

Patient 2: 41-year-old female.
IC: March, 201X. (CC): Dizziness. HPI: Dizziness five days previous. Otorhinolaryngologist
diagnosed otolith misalignment. PI: Dizziness (rotatory), nausea, tinnitus, yawning, hot
flashes, extremity coldness, left neck/shoulder stiffness, work stress. Treatment: F23（LR3）,F36（KI3）. Course: Dizziness disappeared in May. Treatment: three times/twomonths.

Patient 3: 74-year-old female.
IC: April, 201X. (CC): Dizziness. PH: Uterine myomectomy at 37 years. Heart enlargement.
HPI: Fell with dizziness in April, hospitalized ten days. Brain CT: no abnormality, shoulder
stiffness was considered to be the cause of dizziness. PI: Dizziness (rolling), left tinnitus,
neck to mid-back stiffness, eyestrain, sluggish lower limbs. Treatment: F23（LR3）,F36（KI3）. Course: Dizziness cleared June. Treatment: five times/two months.

Discussion/Conclusion: In these three cases, dizziness appeared in the spring. (Huangdi
Neijing Suwen) discusses the relationship between spring and the liver. We consider the
relationship between the ears and the kidneys means that liver and kidney harmonization isrequired. In modern medical terms, we consider somatosensory stimulation of subcutaneous
tissues and skeletal muscles acts on the central nervous system, improves inner ear lymph
and blood circulation, and improves dizziness. These suggest that acupuncture treatment isuseful for dizziness.

Masaaki SAITO, Mieko NAGUMO
Nagumo Acupuncture and Moxibustion Clinic (Japan)

Objectives: We report here two cases in which acupuncture for low back pain (LBP)
with intense coldness increased both the body temperature and improved sensitivity
to the cold.

Patient 1: 65-year-old male. Chief complaint: Pain from LB to L/R thighs and intense
coldness in extremities.
Past history: At age 37, Rheumatoid arthritis and coldness in extremities. At age 55, temperature
35.1°C (armpit); age 40, psoriatic arthritis; age 60, polymyositis; age 62, lumbar spondylosis. History ofpresent illness (HPI): Pain in LB to L/R thighs one-month previously, difficulty in walking. Legs
extremely cold. Findings: Tenderness (++) at pain site, Lasegue test (–). Treatment: SEIRIN Japan,
0.12 mm diameter, 30 mm length needles retained ten minutes at F432 (BL23),F430 (BL25),F445(BL54),F515 (GB30),F36 (KI3), F610 (ST36) and L/R thigh tenderness. Sennenq-moxa to soles. Coldparts warmed with heat packs and far-infrared heater. Sennenq-moxa to soles daily at home. Course:
LBP improved, body temperature increased to 36.3°C and coldness in extremities improved. (24treatments, five months)

Patient 2: 48-year-old male. Chief complaint: Pain from right LB to right buttock andintense coldness in both legs.
HPI: Pain from right LB to right buttock one-year previously. No abnormal X-ray findings. Temperature(armpit): one-year previously 34.8°C. Coldness below ankles for ten years. Findings: Tenderness (++)
in pain site, Lasegue test (–). Treatment: Electro-acupuncture at F432 (BL23),F430 (BL25),F446 (BL53),
and F445(BL54 )(three Hz, ten minutes). Cold parts warmed with heat packs and far-infrared heater.
Course: LBP improved, body temperature increased to 36.1°C, coldness in feet improved. (18treatments, four months) .In addition, both cases, Ryodoraku average amount of current to thepreoperative, saw an increase in post-operative.

Discussion/Conclusion: Coldness is caused by temperature regulation
dysfunction in the cranial autonomic nerves.
Acupuncture and heat packs to alleviate LBP increased body temperature. We surmise stimulation of
the skin (temperature sensors), subcutaneous tissue and skeletal muscles acted on the central nervous
system, restored balance to temperature regulation and increased temperature. This suggests
acupuncture is useful for maintaining and improving temperature regulation.

Rie NAKANE MD
NAKANE Toshie Rehabilitation Internal medicine Pediatric Clinic【Aim of Investigation】There are current topics of the approach for dysphasia
result from cerebrovascular disorder, which are low frequency current therapy ofsuprahyoid muscles and botulinum toxin infusion to criopharyngeus muscle asperipheral approach, and repeated transcranium magnetic stimulation andtranscranium direct-current electrical stimulation as noninvasive central approach.
Also, there is iterative facilitation technique with continuous low frequency current
therapy for hemiplegia. So that, we have an idea that we will be able to treat
dysphasia easily with Ryodoraku electroacupuncture. First of all, we evaluate byautonomic nerve measurement and videoendoscopic(VE) & videofluoroscopic(VF)examination of swallowing. And then, we do swallowing training with Ryodoraku
electroacupuncture. We could make a good improvement of swallowing function. We
would like to report one of the following case.

【Case】76y/o man, Cerebral infarction occurs on July 2015, his findings arehemiplegia/dysarthria/and dysphagia. Chief complaint is “Get the food stuck in his
left side throat.” There shows the food stuck in his left side and also right side of the
hypopharynx on VE&VF. And he needs right/left sideways swallowing andliquid/solid food mutual swallowing to take the stuck away.

【Methods】Low frequency current needle therapy of the Reactive Electro
Permeable Points(REPP) of right and left side in suprahyoid muscles andhypohyoid muscles; 30Hz・intermittenltly・20minutes with swallowing training. Also
General regulatory treatment of the total Ryodoraku(GRR); 30 times.

【Results】He could be able to swallow without getting stuck on the left side of throat.
And also he could feel the stuck on the right side and became the better.

【Conclusion】These approach is easy and effective method for dysphasia.

Objectives) The correlation between Low Frequency (LF), parameter of heart
sympathetic nerve activity and parasympathetic nerve activity, HighFrequency (HF), parameter of heart parasympathetic nerve activity, andLF/HF, parameter of heart autonomic nervous system activity, and the lengthof the average of all the measurement values on 24 Ryodoraku
representative points on Ryodoraku Chart from the lowest frame line wasstatistically analyzed using EZR.

Method) Twenty one subjects (53.63±18.71 years old that are 6 males:
63±10.10 years old, and 15 females; 47.87±19.83) who consented orally forthis study were measured Ryodoraku representative points with Neuro
System Vision DS-603 (Tokyo Ryodoraku Institute) of each subject, andsubsequently RR interval was measured for 2.5 minutes with sphygmographin sitting position on the comfortable chair.

Discussion and Conclusion) The distance of the average of all Ryororaku
representative point measurement values from the lowest frame of
Ryodoraku Chart and RF/HF demonstrated R= 0.802, 95%, confidence
interval 0.567-0.916, and P = 1.22e-05. LF showed R= 0.0607, 95%
confidence interval -0.381-0.48, and P = 0.794. HF showed R = -0.367, 95%,
confidence interval -0.689-0.077, and P = 0.102. 1/HF showed R = 0.211,
95%, confidence interval -0.243-0.589, and P = 0.359. The average of all
Ryodoraku representative point values in the Ryodoraku Chart demonstrated
a certain correlation with heart autonomic (sympathetic) nervous system

1) IFRM，2) Incorporated Association Mahoroba Tokyo，3) Third Eye Ophthalmology Clinic(Introduction) It is known that acupuncture needling influences autonomic
nervous system.

(Subject and Methods) The pupil diameter reflects the variation in the activity
of sympathetic nervous system under the constant illuminance. We tried tomeasure the needling influence to the pupil diameter on the left-side eyeusing Meditester VOG-L (CD8002) (Panasonic Electric Works Co., Ltd.) thatis generally called Iriscorder. Left-side iris diameter was measured. Needle(0.17mm in diameter, 30mm length made by Taiho Medical Company) was
inserted on the left F4 59 (BL10 Tianzhu, 天柱) for 10 seconds using 1cm
sparrow pecking technique in 1 Hz with 2.5 Hz negative mono-phasic
rectangular electrical pulse (width is 100 micro second, 1.65v, 3.3mA 0-P with500Ώ) using IC1107 (ITO) after the measurement for 60 seconds without
needle stimulation. The measurement was continued for 180 seconds
following to the needling with electrical stimulation.

(Discussion and Conclusion) The diameter of the left eye pupil
demonstrated larger significantly during the needle stimulation comparing to
the size before stimulation. It showed significantly smaller than the diameter
before needle stimulation during the following 180 seconds. Significant
difference was indicated among each diameter. It was strongly suggested
that needling excites the sympathetic nervous system during the stimulation.
However, sedation of the activity of the sympathetic nervous system or theparasympathetic nervous dominance occurs after the needle stimulation.
This suggests that needling may constrict the vascular system for a while, but
the following period vascular dilation may occur. Iriscorder may be a usefulmeasurement device to study needling effect.
