A multifaceted aproach to treating and managing acute and chronic pain, using Yamamoto New Scalp Acupuncture (YNSA), electro-acupuncture and infra-red therapy.
What my patients say:
"I initially started due to a sports injury, and after just two sessions, I was already feeling almost fully recovered thanks to the Yamamoto technique. Now, I continue to go every 2–3 weeks to continue the healing of my body and mind. "

"I can honestly say [Ayelet] is one of the most gifted and compassionate professionals I’ve ever met. I initially came to her because of chronic shoulder pain — the kind that comes from spending long hours in front of a computer. From the very first session, I felt both heard and deeply cared for."

Electro-acupuncture is a modern tool used by acupuncturists, where an electric device sends small electric currents to electrodes attached to needles inserted in acupuncture points or trigger points, and stimulates them. The effect of electro-acupuncture is parallel to the one traditional acupuncture can produce by constantly stimulating the acupuncture needles, but has the benefit of being able to do so on a few needles simultaneously and be very accurate in the amount of stimulation performed. This enhances the treatment and grants your therapist an additional tool in order to alleviate certain symptoms.
Electro acupuncture is beneficial for musculo-skeletal injuries, stiffness and pain, including chronic pain, neurological diseases, muscle spasms, paralysis and more.
Yamamoto New Scalp Acupuncture (YNSA) is a modern form of scalp acupuncture developed by Dr. Toshikatsu Yamamoto in Japan. It involves stimulating specific areas of the scalp which correspond to functional and anatomical regions of the body.
YNSA is widely used for pain management, neurological and musculoskeletal conditions, and can often produce rapid changes in pain, mobility and tension patterns.
I integrate YNSA with other advanced acupuncture systems, including ECIWO approaches (a model using corresponding areas of the body as treatment maps) and principles from Dr. Tan’s Five Systems method, which support deeper treatment of underlying patterns and root relationships, and offer additional microsystem treatment options, which can lead to more effective and longlasting clinical outcomes.
YNSA may be used on its own or alongside body acupuncture and conventional medical care, depending on the patient and condition.
