Therapy-Alternative.com provides an exploration of Qigong, an ancient practice that embraces methods that help resist illness by strengthening the body's core energy and restoring balance from within. Often referred to as the "path to total health," it is the "secret weapon" against life's harmful elements such as anxiety, worry and depression.

The oldest of the five main branches of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Qigong - also termed Chi-Kung - essentially stimulates the flow of "vital energy"(chi) and enhances one's health and well-being. It is easier to perform than Tai Chi and less strenuous than Yoga, taking only 10-15 minutes a day to practice. In spite of its simplicity, Qigong can improve the respiratory, circulatory and lymphatic systems and increase flexibility.

According to Therapy-Alternative.com, Qigong is practiced daily by an estimated 100 million people around the world. They believe in these ancient techniques which enable them to work with their own body's energy using using a combination of gentle movements and correct breathing while in a meditative state of mind.
