  What is Medical Qigong? 

Medical Qigong is a combination of energy work and qi massage. It addresses the internal organs, meridians, chakra gates, and body systems, to assist the body in its natural process of repair and restoration of harmony. In addition, it strengthens the protective field around the body and builds up the immune system, aiding in the prevention of illness.
Medical Qigong is used in a similar way that physical therapy addresses specific medical conditions with applied exercises. Practitioners develop their ability to sense and manipulate qi energy flow in and around the electromagnetic fields of the body.

This course introduces the student to Medical Qigong self-healing exercises for establishing exceptional well-being in the body, mind and spirit. Exercises will be taught that help the body correct physical and energetic imbalances, strengthen and regulate internal organs, the nervous system, and immune system. In addition, these exercises can also relieve pain, regulate hormones and aid in the release of deep seated emotions. The course will introduce students to the basic theories of energy tonification, purgation and regulation of the body's organs and energy channels, as well as strengthening the body's protective energy field (Wei Qi).

"I had been given a glaucoma diagnosis because I had three times the pressure of what is normal on my optic nerve. During Medical Qigong sessions, Matthew showed me how to normalize the pressure on my optic nerve through movement, Chinese herbs, and nutrition. I attribute my healing not only to the work but Matthew's talents and his gifts. I look at it as a miracle. Now I maintain my optical nerve balance completely with exercise."
