Traditional Chinese Medicine is made up of a number of different specialisms, such as Acupuncture-Moxibustion, Herbology, Medical dietetics and Therapeutic exercise. Of these various branches of TCM, Medical Qigong is at once the most ancient and most sophisticated.
Unlike all of the others, it dispenses with the “middle man” – for example acupuncture needles, herbals prescriptions, different food types, various exercises, and the like – and, instead, immediately and directly connects the Qi of the practitioner – with therapeutic intent – to that of the person being treated.
