Kiko-therapy has been indicated for bronchial asthma, but its effect has never been evaluated objectively. Our case was a ten-year-old boy with severe asthma who had been undergoing long-term institutional therapy. He had a tendency to hyperventilate due to psychological factors and had been resistant to all kinds of therapy. During a four-month treatment with Kiko-therapy, both symptoms and peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) were studied. PEFR increased significantly, strongly suggesting that Kiko-therapy contributed to the improvement of airway obstruction in this patient.
