Kata-Kori, or, Trapezius-muscle reflex

[Guest guest]

Haruto Kinoshita, a famous researcher of japanese acupuncture

escribes in an article on the magazine Ido-No-Nippon

vol1,pg50-52, of 1979. the simptom s related to the Kata-Kori.

He lists three factors:

1 - reflex tension from cervical artropaties(articular

microtraumatisms) and as reflex of pathologies of the digestive,

respiratory, urinary systems, that affect the tension of the

cervical and dorsal muscles.

2 - Muscular fatigue caused by activities that make excessive use

of the muscles of the cervico-dorsal region, because of the

repetitive effort, there is accumulation of metabolic residues as

lactic acid, oxalic acid, etc)in the muscles resulting in added

tension.

3 - Unbalances in the Autonomic Nervous System, causing a déficit

in the flow of blood in the muscles. Situations of repetitive

emotional tension provoke fibromialgic contraction, lessening

return of low-oxigen blood, provoking ischemic pains because of

chronic cumulative tension.

The factors described provoke a closed chain reaction; muscular

tension=accumulation of metabolic residues=inflamation=muscular

tension. The cumulative factors are emotional, social, work

related, and from daily activities and lack of adequate physical

posture. The Kata-Kori is aggravated by repetitive visual fatigue

- see Gall-Bladder Meridian!(the optic nerve has a neural reflex

in the superior trapezius muscle) provoking the apparition on the

trapezius of fibromiotic muscular nodules hampering local blood

circulation. The muscular tension exerts pressure on the nerves

of muscles and skin increasing pain. Heavy shoes and problems in

feet can interfere in adequate posture.

The Kata-Kori on the Left Trapezius gets tensioned by high

blood-pressure, the respiratory system, heart related problems,

psychic depression and other emotional factors.

The Kata-Kori on the Right Trapezius gets tensioned by sicknesses

of the digestive system(gastritis, ulcers, diabetes,

constipation, liver and Gall-Bladder) and genital and urinary.

In strong muscular tension, can apply Moxa on more sensitive

points found by palpation. In tension on one side only, seek

sensitive points also on Anterior trapezius; Ketsubon

point,St12).
