Tashiro Sanki

Tashiro Sanki (田代三喜, 1465–1537) was a Japanese doctor of kampo and the founder of the Gosei-ha school of medicine. He was a teacher of Manase Dōsan.^[1]

Tashiro studied abroad in China between 1487 and 1498, and returned to Japan with new ideas regarding medicine.^[2] He promulgated the use of medicine for emotional disorders.^[3]

Tashiro's workbooks were written in a cryptic style, using uncommon characters and terminology, in order to preserve the secrets of his school for initiates only.^[4]
