Medical Qigong Wellness Consultation and Coaching
Medical Qigong (often called Clinical Qigong) is an alternative approach to health and wellness that addresses the healing that needs to occur at all levels of the body to be successful. Based on Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM), a proven medical system with roots that go back 5,000 years, this is a full body-mind-spirit approach that considers your whole being to enhance healing and resilience.
Medical Qigong addresses chronic, frustrating health conditions which may have developed over time or in response to an acute injury or event. It can also help you better manage stress and extend the health of your body through natural anti-aging means. Treatment includes an in-depth evaluation; development of a treatment plan protocol; and recommendations on stress management, nutrition, and exercise. Treatment may also include medical qigong and energetic treatments and prescribed breathing and qigong exercises targeted to your specific health challenges or concerns.
Our approach empowers you to understand your body and health care options and utilize the best of both western and alternative options.
Qigong, Breathwork, and Tai Chi Lessons
Qigong (“chee kung”) and Tai Chi are ancient, non-impact forms of energy exercise which combines breathing, specific movement patterns, and focused intention into a powerful practice that helps you transform stress, center and ground yourself, and improve your health and internal energy.
These exercises stretch and strengthen the physical structure, including muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia, and help improve balance and mobility. They also work energetically and help regulate and unblock the energy meridians, which often is the “missing piece” for people who have been trying to resolve issues such as chronic pain or stiffness, better manage stress, or improve energy levels.
While Tai Chi is quite popular and Qigong is becoming more prevalent, much of the instruction out there is focused on the outside form and general stress reduction benefits. My teachings go much deeper so you also learn and benefit from the profound energetic cultivation that can lead to positive, meaningful physical, mental, and emotional changes. We also explore other breathing and energy disciplines to ensure a well-rounded, effective approach.
You will be introduced to a proven health and energy cultivation method impacting body, mind, and spirit, which hopefully becomes an ongoing, consistent practice you will enjoy and benefit from. Instruction is tailored to meet your specific needs, whether you are new to Qigong or Tao Chi, or have some experience and would like to go deeper in your practice.
Fitness, Functional Movement / Corrective Exercise, and Nutrition Coaching
Our fitness and functional movement coaching goes beyond conventional exercise programs and helps you tap into the vibrant health and energy already within you – to achieve better health and fitness, reduce stress, and increase your overall energy and personal power.
We work with you to develop a customized program that helps you get better results in less time than the fads and cookie-cutter programs you can find online. We leverage time-tested principles and techniques from martial arts and ancient energy disciplines along with modern, proven training strategies, as well as recommendations on nutrition and supplementation.
We apply corrective exercise principles to help you move better and “prehab” for, or rehab from, joint replacements as well as other surgeries or injuries. We can take the handoff from your physical therapist and help you get back to better mobility and strength. We also specialize in working with individuals with neurological challenges, such as Parkinson’s Disease, MS, or recovery from stroke.
This approach is extremely effective…rewarding…and adaptable to where you are now in your fitness journey.
