What It Is
Medical Qigong (or External Qigong) is a method of treatment that opens the body’s Qi field, removes disharmonies from it, then re-balances thefield. This helps restore the flow of Qi in the body’s internal channels, resulting in health and well-being. For an explanation of Qi check out what we’re about.
Who Benefits?
While everyone can benefit from Medical Qigong, it is particularly suited to treat people who have not felt relief from any other methods, including acupuncture. In cases where the body’s Qi field has collapsed (from injury or illness) the internal channels can be so closed that there may not be enough Qi moving through them for acupuncture to re-balance. Fortunately, since the body’s Qi field and its channels are connected, opening the field with Medical Qigong also opens the channels. Acupuncture can then be a very effective follow-up method to fine tune the restored flow of Qi.
