What Is Traditional Chinese Medicine?
Traditional Chinese Medicine is not just another alternative medicine. It is in fact, a vast, complex
and comprehensive system of completely natural medicine that has diagnosed, treated and
prevented illness for well over five thousand years. It is the oldest continuously practiced
medicine in the entire world.
It is now becoming increasingly popular in the U.S.A and western countries. And is being
integrated into most modern medical systems. More than 40% of the world’s population now use
TCM. In China nearly 1,300 million people use it. It is regarded there with equal status to western
medicine and both systems are often combined together in the treatment of disease. Its
effectiveness has been recognized by the World Health Organisation, which now actively
promotes its use in the west and its integration into all western national health services.
It is an ancient and sophisticated form of medicine. Whose basic theories, due to their success and
efficacy, have remained unchanged for more than three thousand years? Its effects are threefold –
to cure illness, to prevent illness and to promote health. It works on all levels of health - mental,
emotional, spiritual and physical. Can treat all types of patients - from babies to the elderly. And
can help in the treatment of all types of acute and chronic ailments – from accidents to cancers. It
is highly adaptable, safe and can be performed anywhere. It is entirely compatible with all other
systems of medicine, such as western medicine. And can be used to enhance and support their
treatments. It is safe to say that there is no sick person who cannot be helped by TCM. It is a
holistic form of medicine that does not just focus on the disease but rather on the whole person, to
bring them back to a healthy state of balance and harmony.
What Is Medical Qigong?
Increasing cultural exchanges between China and the West have led to Medical Qigong, the most
powerful of the Chinese medical disciplines, finally being made available to medical practitioners
outside of China.
Medical Qigong is an ancient form of Chinese energetic medicine, and is one of the four main
branches of Traditional Chinese Medicine, along with acupuncture, herbal medicine, and Tuina
medical massage. Medical Qigong has been practiced in China for over 5000 years.
As with the other branches of Traditional Chinese Medicine, healing occurs through balancing qi
or electromagnetic energy which surrounds and pervades all living creatures.
‘Qi’ can be interpreted as ‘Life Energy’ or ‘Life Force’. The presence and active movement of Qi
energy and force in the body distinguishes the difference between a persons body when alive
compared to dead – when the body has become energy less. When ill, Qi energy in a person flows
excessively or weakly through the body compared to when in good health. Qigong is the practice
of cultivating and managing this life force energy in the body. When Qi is properly cultivated or
managed in the body a person remains in good mental, emotional, physical and spiritual health.
Management of Qi is carried out by utilizing special breathing techniques in combination with
mental concentration exercises and still postures or slow, coordinated physical movements of
different parts of the body. These keep blood flow and pressure healthy; improve efficiency of
oxygen delivery as well as balance activity of the nervous, hormonal, digestive and immune
systems. They also have a major impact on the mind and emotions, relieving stress and releasing
deep seated negative emotions.
Disruptions in the electromagnetic energy of the body can occur throughout our lifetime as a
result of poor diet, sedentary lifestyle, injuries, surgery, environmental influences, suppression of
emotions, over working and aging.
The goal of qigong is initially to correct these bio-energetic imbalances and blockages. Then to
gather up, cultivate and circulate energies to reach and power up to a superior level of health.
Medical qigong therapy consists of treatment by a practitioner to regulate and tonify the patient's
qi. After the treatment the patient will be given qigong prescriptions to assist in their ongoing
healing. Tailored specifically to the patient, medical qigong exercises use physical movement,
breathing methods and mental intention to correct and restore the function in the body.
Medical qigong is a complete system of health care that recognizes the root causes of symptoms
or disease, and treats the patient as a whole. It can be used alone or practiced as an excellent
adjunct to Western medicine or other forms of Chinese medicine. Medical Qigong accelerates
these healing processes while minimising any negative side effects. Acupuncture’s effectiveness
can be greatly increased when used in conjunction with Medical Qigong.
What Are The Benefits Of Practicing Or Receiving Qigong?
Qigong’s great appeal is that anyone can enrich their lives by adding qigong to their daily routine,
regardless of ability, age, belief system, or life circumstances. Qigong exercises enable people to
feel and perform better and have higher levels of energy and stamina.
People practice qigong to maintain health, heal their bodies, calm their minds, and reconnect with
their spirit.

in their own overall health and well being.
How Is Qigong Applied To Treat Illness And Improve Health?
Medical qigong can be divided into two methods of application internal qigong or self treatment
and external qigong or qi emission.

Internal Qigong or Self Treatment: Internal qigong is a major part of Qigong therapy.
This form of qigong is practiced by oneself to achieve a specific purpose. A form of
psycho-physiological self-regulation, internal qigong regulates the qi of the body for the
purposes of harmonizing our internal energy systems for health enhancement and disease
prevention. Typically, these are simple breathing and movement exercises combined with
standing or seated meditations.

External Qigong or Qi Emission: External qigong refers to the process by which qigong
practitioners direct or emit qi to others to purge and release toxic emotions from within
the body's tissues, eliminate energetic stagnations, as well as tonify, and regulate the
internal organs, immune system, and energetic fields. The practitioner may touch areas
on the other person's body or simply pass their hands over the body.
When patients are ill and their own level of qi is very low or stagnant, receiving qi from a qigong
practitioner is a very powerful stimulant toward recovery.
What Is Involved In A Typical Medical Qigong Treatment?
A treatment session lasts about 45 minutes. The Initial session may be longer.
Evaluation …
This differs from what may happen at a Western doctor's office, in that not only is it important to
find out the primary reason and symptoms for the client's visit, but also the underlying ones that
may be the root cause of the dysfunction or disease. The tongue, pulse, face, eyes, voice, posture,
and attitude are some of the characteristics that are observed.
Using the person's voice as an example, the qualities of which can be used to help diagnose where
and what type of Qi deviations may be occurring in the body. Is the voice loud (an excess
condition) or soft and weak (a deficient condition)? Can an emotion be detected in the voice
(anger, sadness, worry, etc.)? Can an overall pattern be determined by the tone of the voice?
The practitioner may also use energetic means of diagnosing the client. The practitioner can scan
the client's body for energetic abnormalities; typically these are areas which have an excessive,
deficient, or stagnant energy.
All of these observations when combined will assist the practitioner in discovering the client's
patterns of physiological, psychological and energetic dysfunction. Based on this information the
practitioner will formulate a treatment protocol.
Treatment …
During a session, the patient usually lies on a treatment couch. Qi can pass through air and
clothing, so there is no need to disrobe. The practitioner often works about a foot away from the
patient's body, and sometimes lightly touches the patient to guide and manipulate the movement
of Qi. The practitioner will follow specific treatment protocols and purge, tonify or clear
blockages in the patient’s energy fields according to the principles and methods they have learnt.
The patient may feel varying sensations, some of which can be quite strong and intense, as the Qi
moves, such as warmth, tingling, coolness, vibration, and sometimes twitching as the stagnant
energy releases.
Generally, patients find the treatments extremely relaxing and rejuvenating. Sometimes patients
may become aware of uncomfortable emotions that have been suppressed and have an emotional
release either during or after the treatment. As one of the primary goals of Medical Qigong
therapy is to release toxic emotions from within the body's tissues, having an emotional release is
extremely beneficial to one's psychological and physiological well-being.
Prescriptions …
After the treatment the patient will be given Qigong prescriptions to assist in their ongoing
healing. These Medical Qigong exercises and meditations are tailored specifically to the patients,
similar to an acupuncturist prescribing healing herbs or a medical doctor giving a pharmaceutical
prescription.
Follow Up Treatment …
Depending on their illness, patients may need a number of treatments to alleviate it.
Many practitioners also find that because of the relaxing effect of the treatment and its feel good
effects and improvement of general health and well being, that long after their illness has gone,
patients still keep coming back for more treatment on a regular basis.

The Following Qi Tonification And Regulation Exercises Will Be Taught
During The Course …
Taoist 5 Yin and Yang
The Daoist 5 Yin and Yang exercises are a set of extremely effective exercises which tonify and
regulate the internal organs energies. The system is divided into two sections. The first section
stimulates, energizes, and regulates the body's Yang organs and channels. This results in the
strengthening of the body's peristaltic action and aiding digestive illnesses. The second section
stimulates, energizes, and regulates the body's Yin organs and channels. The Yin organs are
responsible for the storage of the body's energy.
6 Healing Sounds Exercises
Ancient Taoists developed a clear set of simple techniques employing sounds, stretching,
breathing and visualization to cool, relax and heal the body's organ systems. The six healing
sounds involve using sound vibrations and techniques to strengthen, harmonize, and re-energize
these vital organs, creating optimum health.
Easy to learn and wonderful for young and old alike, these exercises cleanse the body of toxins,
negative emotions and stagnant Qi. The practice of the Six Healing Sounds is very flexible. You
can practice all six sounds in order or only practice specific sounds to treat specific conditions in
the body.
And also many other Qigong exercises such as …
The Golden Ball - Kuan Kungs Golden Beard - Ba Duan Jin Eight Pieces of Brocade
The Five Standing Postures - Purging and Dredging Stagnant Qi Exercises
Counter Swing, Dropping Post, and Trembling Horse - The Old Man and the Tide Pool
Walking Therapy – I Chuan Postures
Many Shen Gong meditations will also be taught on the course. Such as …
8 Direction Meditation
The Eight Direction Perception meditation, adopted from the Buddhist Monks, was practiced in
order to expand awareness, perception, and psychic ability. Through the complexities of modern
society, many people have numbed their abilities to feel their own emotions, internal energies and
the subtle powers and intentions that permeate our existence. This meditation releases the trapped
emotional memory and stagnant energy lodged in the body's tissues, which inhibit sensory
functioning.
Life force breathing Meditation
The ancient masters of Tai Ji Quan (Tai Chi Chuan) believed that health and self empowerment
were dependent upon one's Life Force Energy. They found that meditation proved to be one of
the most effective and concise ways of developing internal energy. To enhance and deepen their
training they created the Life Force Breathing meditation, which is designed to mentally touch
and energize every cell of the body. This meditation begins by liberating the body of energy
obstructions that cause stagnation in the tissues and channels (meridians). The body is then
reconstructed energetically, thereby cleansing and rejuvenating the viscera, circulatory, digestive,
respiratory, nervous, muscular, and reproductive systems of the body. Finally, the Wei Qi (body's
protective energy) is expanded and strengthened.
Wu Zang (Five Organ) Meditation for Energetic Protection
A very powerful meditation which is still taught today in China used to prepare Qigong doctors
before treating patients in a clinical environment, because it surrounds then with a strong field of
protective energy (Wei Qi). When a Qigong doctor enters the space of a diseased patient, the
potential for absorbing the patient's pathogenic Qi is high. Noting this potential for harm, the
ancient Chinese Qigong masters developed certain meditations to protect themselves from the
patient's diseased or turbid Qi.
This meditation still has value even if you are not a clinician. In daily life we are constantly
exposed to pathogenic Qi from the environment (wind, cold, rain, etc.) or from people with whom
we come in contact. The meditation can be used to protect a person from absorbing other people's
pathogenic Qi, and strengthen the immune system for fending off invading pathogenic factors
such as colds and the flu.
