Introduction[edit | edit source]

Qigong (also written as qi gong or chu kung) is an ancient Chinese practice that uses movement, breathing, meditation, relaxation, and internal energy. Qi (meaning breath, air, spirit) in traditional Chinese medicine is the “vital force or energy of life.”[1] The earliest qigong-like exercises in China are from animal movements. Many qigong postures have names such as Bathing Duck, Leaping Monkey, Turning Tiger, Coiling Snake, Old Bear in the Woods, and Flying Crane.[2] Qigong can be practiced anywhere, does not involve any specialized equipment, and is especially beneficial in a pleasant outdoor area.

There are many forms of qigong, such as:

  • Eight Section Brocade Qigong (also known as Eight Strands of Brocade, Eight Pieces of Brocade, Eight Silken Movements, Baduanjin or Ba Duan Jin)
  • Five Animals Play Qigong (Wu Qin Xi)
  • Fragrant Qigong
  • Guo Lin Qigong (walking qigong)
  • Laughing Qigong
  • Medical Qigong
  • Nei Yang Gong Qigong
  • Six Healing Sounds Qigong (Liu Zi Jue)
  • Tai Chi Qigong

Qigong for Health and Disease Management[edit | edit source]

The following are medical conditions that Baduanjin qigong, one form of qigong, may help:

  • Ankylosing spondylitis symptoms[3]
  • Anxiety and depression symptoms[4]
  • Bone loss prevention in middle aged women[5]
  • Cancer-related fatigue in patients with colorectal cancer[6][7]
  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease[8]
  • Chronic stroke (improved balance, leg strength, mobility)[9]
  • Fibromyalgia[10]
  • Heart failure (improved fatigue and quality of life)[11]
  • Knee osteoarthritis[12][13]
  • Physical and psychological health of elderly housebound individuals[14]
  • Musculoskeletal pain[15]
  • Parkinson’s disease (improved gait, mobility, sleep)[16]
  • Physical and psychological health outcomes among breast cancer survivors[17]
  • Post-stroke cognitive impairment[18]
  • Sleep quality[19]
  • Type 2 diabetes[20]

Practical Application[edit | edit source]

The best approach to learning any one of the styles of qigong is to take classes. As a visual demonstration, see Figure 1 for the basic Baduanjin qigong movements.[2]
