Yamamoto new scalp acupuncture (YNSA), used since 1973, is a complete acupuncture microsystem. YNSA is most frequently used for neuromusculoskeletal diseases, dysfunctions, and pain that may be either acute or chronic.1 To date, there has not been a large-scale study of the use, acupoint frequency, or location of YNSA in the treatment of various diagnoses of back pain. YNSA is composed of 2 categories: Basic points and Ypsilon points.
The Basic points are scalp acupuncture points used to treat pain/dysfunction of anatomical body parts that are directly related to the disease/dysfunctional process. Basic points are associated with small elevations or firmness in the subcutaneous tissue of the scalp at prescribed locations. YNSA divides the scalp into YIN and YANG wherein YIN is the anterior/frontal (Figure 1) and YANG is the posterior/dorsal part of the scalp (Figure 2). YIN is further divided into Yin of YIN and Yang of YIN. YANG is also further divided into Yin of YANG and Yang of YANG.
YNSA acupuncture also uses Ypsilon points, which relate to the 12 acupuncture meridians. To identify which acupuncture point needs treatment, Yamamoto developed a special palpatory neck diagnosis technique.

The Basic points are scalp acupuncture points used to treat pain/dysfunction of anatomical body parts that are directly related to the disease/dysfunctional process.

YIN is further divided into Yin of YIN and Yang of YIN. YANG is also further divided into Yin of YANG and Yang of YANG. YNSA acupuncture also uses Ypsilon points, which relate to the 12 acupuncture meridians. To identify which acupuncture point needs treatment, Yamamoto developed a palpatory neck diagnosis technique.
YNSA neck diagnosis is a palpatory procedure to determine which Ypsilon quadrant needs to be treated (Yin of YIN, Yang of YIN, Yin of YANG, Yang of YANG) and which Ypsilon point needs treatment. Ypsilon points represent all the acupuncture meridians except CV and GV. The 12 acupuncture meridians, LU, LI, KI, BL, HT, SI, LR, GB, PC, TB, SP, and ST, are identified by palpatory neck tenderness in specific areas (Figure 4). The YNSA neck diagnostic palpatory tenderness findings indicate which Ypsilon point to treat and which side of the scalp. The hardness or softness of the sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) is used to indicate in which Ypsilon quadrant (YIN or YANG) to place the needle in the respective Ypsilon point
