IPRA123 works directly on the fascia: a subcutaneous needling technique paired with kinesiotape that releases tension at its source, not just the point of pain.

Best Paper, DTCMC 2026. Zohar Steg’s IPRA123 paper was selected as a Best Paper at DTCMC 2026, the Dutch TCM Congress. Zohar presents IPRA123 at the congress on 7 November 2026.
THE METHOD
How is it different from other methods?
01 Works on the fascia
The method focuses on the fascia, a tissue connecting muscles, bones, and organs, and is designed to treat muscle and joint pain.
03 Anatomy-based, respecting TCM
The method does not use classical concepts like meridians, yin-yang, or qi, yet still respects the principles of TCM.
The IPRA123 method is a unique acupuncture technique that combines principles from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with advanced anatomical and physiological knowledge. In some cases, this method may even prevent the need for surgery.
02 Not only the muscle
Unlike Dry Needling, this method focuses on the fascia rather than solely on the muscle and integrates a deep understanding of body processes.
04 Kinesio tape between sessions
After the acupuncture session, kinesio tape is applied to maintain the therapeutic effect between treatments.

“
“This method just works, and it works fast! … When I came to the Netherlands to study the IPRA123 method with Zohar Steg, I had no idea how deeply it would impact both me and my patients. … I wholeheartedly recommend both Zohar as a teacher and practitioner, and the IPRA123 method itself.”
