Abstract

Qigong and T’ai Chi (Taiji/Taijiquan) are known throughout the world to have many styles, instructors, and schools for the practice and instruction of the movements, meditative practices and associated healing arts. The practice of Qigong and T’ai Chi has grown in popularity and come to the attention of Western Medicine as a wellness practice to such an extent that it has been called “medication in motion”. Research has convinced wellness organizations and institutions to offer Qigong and T’ai hi as part of integrated care for patients. Qigong and T’ai Chi (referred to in this article as “QT”) practices are also being included in the training of Western Medicine physicians and healthcare professionals.
