In the nineteen sixties, the Japanese physician and scientist Toshikatsu Yamamoto discovered an independent acupuncture system. Dr. Yamamoto presented this method, which originally consisted of five points, for the first time at a Japanese Ryodoraku Congress in Japan in 1973. For twelve years, using these highly effective points, which he termed basic points, he successfully treated stroke patients suffering from pain and paralysis. Taking second place only to ear acupuncture, YNSA (Yamamoto et al., 2010) is today the most widely and frequently used form of acupuncture and is gaining increasing significance. Since 1973, in addition to the basic points, several other points have been discovered namely sensory point, brain points, Y points, extra points, treatment points on the thorax and in the region of the pubic bone, dorsal treatment points and additional peripheral points as well as various diagnostic points. Hardly any other acupuncture system can be described as so fertile since Dr. Yamamoto is untiring in his search for new methods of treatment, points and somatopes in his daily work. In Japan, acupuncture was largely practised by masseurs, which meant that it was not highly regarded in classical medicine nor, in particular, at university medical schools. Interest in and receptiveness to acupuncture is gradually increasing, also at some Japanese universities. YNSA has been the subject of numerous studies and publications. YNSA is also used very successfully in veterinary medicine, for example to treat cats and dogs. A number of research projects and publications on YNSA are eagerly awaited in the near future.
