Mind Body Connection

Why Should You Try Qi Gong?

Qigong helps you support your immune system, reduce stress and anxiety, manage pain, maintain flexibility expecially as we get older and increase vitality. 

Stress puts us in fight or flight mode that weakens our body’s immune system. From a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective, Qigong calms the nervous system and supports the energetic mechanisms that create and maintain our immunity.

Qigong is mindful, gentle and focused movement and meditation aligned with the breath to bring the body, mind and spirit back into balance.

The deep breathing can restore oxygen flow disrupted by chronic pain. The slow, gentle and safe movements can help overcome the fear of movement for someone who lives with pain.

if you're struggling to get through the day or if your stress and anxiety is starting to get the better of you, Qigong may just be what you need. Perfect for people of all ages, this form of gentle exercise can not only help your body maintain its health & vitality, but it can also help to improve your flexibility and immunity.
