Qigong is an element of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and complements acupuncture in the treatment of many conditions. Qigong translates as nurturing. Its purpose is to nurture mind, body and soul, or spirit, so as to promote healthy energy, healing and wellbeing. For certain conditions, Qigong is a preparation for the effective intervention of acupuncture in the rebalancing, stimulation, unblocking of energy in specific areas of the body system or more generally so as to affect particular conditions or to promote healthy body/mind functions
Qigong involves stillness (sitting, standing and lying down), movement, massage, tapping or drumming and visualisation. The whole-body movements are gentle, undemanding, and focused, using the key principles of alignment, centring,coordination and breathing techniques. Its purpose is to become as relaxed as possible in movement. Qigong is sometimes referred to as meditation in movement.
