What is Qigong
Qi Gong is a gentle exercise developed in China over 4000 years ago, it has been used for healing and prevention for many centuries. Qi Gong involves whole-body movement, mental focus, and deep breathing that opens the body energy pathways promoting smooth energy flow, and restores organ harmony. Â This self-cultivation practice produces powerful healing results. Â It is also an excellent practice for anti-aging. There is no age limit to practicing Qi Gong. It can be performed while seated if needed, for the elderly or wheelchair-bound, or recovering from a health issue as it helps speed in the recovery. Qigong is also called "Moving Meditation," which benefits one as a whole; Body, Mind, and Spirit.
​
There are many different types and forms of Qi Gong. They all differ in movements and postures. Â However, all Qi Gong forms have similar benefits, some are more focused than others and some can target certain illnesses. Here at AHA, we focus on Medical Qigong.
