About Qigong

In understanding health, the ancients drew upon the discoveries of many martial artists, enlightened masters and healers. The result of this investigation was the development of Qigong in China. Qigong (pronounced Chee Kung) is an ancient healing art practiced for thousands of years in the East to promote health, vitality and resistance to disease.

Qigong, which literally means ‘working with energy', is a series of simple postures, breathing patterns and movement exercises that anybody can learn. These exercises feel good to practice and can rapidly transform your energy level and overall health.

The concept behind the healing power of Qigong is that the vibration of disease exists in the energy (Qi) within the body. With Qigong practice this vibration can be aligned with the vibration of health and vitality, in much the same way as a tuning fork will start to vibrate to the same pitch as another tuning fork that is struck and then brought into proximity to it. Any condition can benefit from the practice of Qigong, which results in a great feeling of well-being
