What Diseases Qigong Therapy Can Heal?
Qigong therapy is a highly effective therapeutic type of body workout that utilizes external and internal Qi (the vital energy or the universe which flows through the human body and all living things.) It is based on the same system which is used in acupuncture, a traditional form of Chinese medicine and many other body workout therapies. Qigong therapy aims to promote self-healing, maintain good health, and build internal strength, fitness and balance. It can relieve acute symptomatology, body aches, pains and illnesses, and it is an excellent way to relieve chronic pain and aid healing of all kinds of health conditions. It is also an enjoyable and rejuvenating therapy for those who feel generally well.
More specifically, Qigong can help heal autonomic nerve disorders, climacteric symptomatology, neurasthenia, chronic gastroenteritis, hypertension, chronic bronchitis, diabetes and coronary heart diseases and so on. By learning and practicing a set of techniques that require concentration, controlled breathing techniques, and specific slow movement exercises, Qigong practitioners feel calmer and more energized.
However, people who suffer from mental disorder or have unstable mental conditions such as hysteria and schizophrenia are not fit to practice Qigong. Other types of physical training would be more suitable for them.
