Medical QiGong ....What is it really...

QiGong is a Lifestyle and a Healing-modality

Dr . Oz, Oprah's favorite MD, was asked out of all the health practices that one could do, what was the one practice that he would choose and recommend people practice to stay healthy. His response was that if you want to be healthy and live to 100, do Qigong. Dr. Oz added that Qigong reverses the aging process. Learn the secrets and the correct way to practice qigong for physical, mental emotional and spiritual health by working with a qualified Practitioner.
What will a healthy routine look like...
In my classes I teach a one hour routine that follows the elemental cycle, cleanses, purges and tonifies all the organs, purges emotional imbalance, and teaches mindfulness meditation.
People then take home what felt best to them and practice the movement during the week.
I am often asked, why the modality I use for Healing and Movement Classes is called Medical QiGong.
It is specifically called Medical QiGong because every manipulation, every movement and every touch is geared towards Organ and Meridian Balance and Health. We practice healing from Syndrome vs Symptom approach.

Symptom: various abnormal manifestations of a disease such as headache, fever,
sweating, and thirst.
Syndrome: a generalization of various symptoms and signs occurring in a certain stage
of a disease, or the pathological, comprehensive manifestations formed by the
pathogenesis, the location of the disease, the nature of the disease, and the relations
between the pathogenic factors and the anti-pathogenic qi. Syndrome reflects the
nature of a disease in an overall way.

Syndrome based healing looks for the source not the symptom and the treatment then happens on a multilevel format:
Diagnosis, Healing sessions on the table including massage, cupping, guasha, acupressure, meridian therapy (all inclusive TCM), Homework for client - movements, meditations, herbal tinctures, selfhealing protocols etc.
