CHINESE MEDICINE: HEALING THROUGH ENERGY

CHINESE MEDICINE: HEALING THROUGH ENERGY

Qi, or vital energy, is an invisible material that is constantly in motion. It is the key to health, according to Chinese medicine (TCM). Indeed, any imbalance in these energy flows leads to pathologies in the long run.

All TCM treatments (acupuncture, pharmacopoeia, tuina, etc.) aim to restore the patient’s energy balance. Similarly, Qi Gong, or “qi work”, is a practice that can prevent and cure diseases.

Traditionally, the Chinese doctor practiced qi gong regularly. In this way, he learned to master the qi to better treat his patients. It is in this tradition that we were taught, and that we still practice.
