YNSA seminar was held in Sendai, where we live. Many people attended, including doctors and students as well as acupuncturists. Another introduction seminar was held in Sapporo on the same day. The introduction seminar mainly introduces YNSA. We take time for practice because we want them to feel the effect and want to learn YNSA properly.
The 1st day was the basics. We told about the diagnosis and the basic points. The 2nd day was the intermidiates. We told about other treatment points. We took a lot of practice on both days. There are many questions from the students. I think it is a sigin of a desire to learn properly.
We introduced Boccia for East Miyagino elememtary school students and their parents. It looks easy, but it is difficult. There are two types of balls, hard and soft. Boccia is a sports that anyone can enjoy. Everyone excited to play. We also told scoring method. The next time they watch Boccia, they can enjoy more. The Boccia team （Hinotama Japan）got a silver medal at the Rio Paralympics. Let's support to play well at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympics!!
2019/9/20 障がい者スポーツ体験 東長町小学校 Para sports experience at East Nagamachi elementary school
We introduced Balloon sitting volleyball for East Nagamachi elementary school students. Sitting valleyball is one of the Paralympic competition event and balloon sitting volleyball is one of the para sports event. Change the ball to a balloon so that many people can enjoy it. Can not take your butt off the floor. The staff also practiced it, but it was difficult. Balloons are soft, so just hitting won't work. The point is to handle gently. They did not tired no matter how many match they play. They are energetic. The nickname of sitting volleyball team is Kirameki Japan. Let's support them!!
YNSA seminar was held by Dr. Ymamamoto at Yamamoto Rehabilitation Clinic in Miyagi. The morning of the 1st day is a lecture by YNSA, and the afternoon is observing outpatients. A lots of patients will come to visit his clininc to treat their symptoms. Patients allowed us to see treatments for students to learn. The morning of the 2nd day is also observing outpatients, and the afternoon is a lecture.
Dr. Yamamoto is 90 yeras old, but still work on the clininc to treat the patients. He is still searhing new treatment points because of his patients and dream that is treating patients only one needle. His treatment style seems like a big change, but it is not. He keeps the foundation, but changing with the times, patients and his physical condition.
At this time, hotel bath was a natural hot spring. It worked very well on my skin symptoms that is allergy caused by sunlight. The condition of the arms and eyelids where symptoms were most apparent was cured. I had a headache after getting out of the bath in 2nd day of the morning. After my headach was cured, my right cheek and eyelid remained uncomfortable. Dr. Yamamoto treated this sympotoms. The treatment was end of the seminaｒ so time of the needling was only 15min. However, it works!! We would like to continue learning and help many patients like Dr. Yamamoto.
I would like to introduce Moxafrica in Tohoku. I wanted to paticiate in Earth Day Tohoku but this year I couldn't. A few acupuncturists living in Sendai secured a moxa booth and particiated in Relay for Life Japan Miyagi.
The Relay For Life movement is American Cancer Society’s signature fundraiser dedicated to helping communities attack cancer. From team members to volunteers, we all want to remember those we’ve lost, help those affected today, and give us a home team advantage against cancer. Through funds donated, time given, or awareness raised, our communities are teaming up to make a difference. When we rally together in the fight against cancer through this fun and inspirational event, we can accomplish anything. Diverted from Relay for Life.
