| Abstract;The aged and mildly disabled are included among those who receive health education services provided by public health centers. Kiko-therapy is considered an adequate method of maintaining these people in good health, while gymnastic exercises that require vigorous movement are not good for them. I and some of my colleague who are interested in Kiko-therapy investigated the physiological effects of Kiko-therapy by performing it for 30 minutes every day for over a one-year period. The results showed that humidity at acupoint Rokyu (Laogong) varied greatly among subjects. Kiko-therapy has also been used as part of school activities for health promotion in the public health center of Sakyo Ward. However, the effects of Kiko-therapy have been evaluated there only in regard to several emotional criteria expressed as "feel colfortable" or "feel refreshed", etc. To determine the effects of Kiko-therapy as scientifically as possible, we measured its effects in the people who applied to the health promotion school, by referring to the basic data we had obtained.
