Dai-kankyo-gan has traditionally been used for great resistance for tenderness upon pressure in the epigastric region (Shinkahiko) and rigidity of nape (Kohai-kyo). We treated two cases with Dai-kankyo-gan for years.<br>Case 1 was a 75-year-old male patient. He had been experiencing shortness of breath after slight exertion since 1986, and had been treated with theophyline, bronchodilator, and expectorants, as well as prednisolone for emphysema and pneumoconiosis. After receiving Dai-kankyo-gan, the patients Kohai-kyo and dyspnea improved and he was able to stop taking prednisolone. It is well known that Dai-kankyo-gan makes Shinkahiko and Kohai-kyo better. In this case, it improved throat discomfort as well.<br>Case 2 was a 56-year-old female patient who had been suffering from stiff shoulders and headaches. After receiving Dai-kankyo-gan, Kohai-kyo improved and the thick coating on the tongue was normalized.<br>Shinkahiko, which depends on stasis of body fluid, is usually normalized with the improvement of subjective symptoms. But in these cases, it was not cured.
