Qigong & Taichi for Health

By : Henry Remanlay

       Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) doesn’t works as curative method only, but it works in prevention and rehabilitation area as well. That’s one of the reason Qigong and later on Taichi are one of the TCM pillar to maintain health. For thousands of years, Sages in China had been observing that specific movement followed by correct breathing may stimulate specific acupuncture meridian.
TCM point of view on body movements is way different than western world point of view. In TCM body movements or later on mentioned as Qigong, put emphasize on couples of aspects to stimulates acupuncture meridian precisely:
  1. the exactness of movements, not speed nor strength
  2. exactness of breathing
  3. correct concentration or focus
      The interesting part is Taichi, even though Taichi developed as a martial art, but it has some similar foundations with Qigong as stated above. That’s one of the reason why Taichi have a gentle movement and easy to do for any people from any ages. Taichi and Qigong not only good for health, but also for emotion, concentration and memory, at school, at workplace, and for daily life activity.
