Qigong for Seniors Presented at National Qigong Association Conference and National Wellness Conference

Qigong for Seniors was presented by Kathy Levac RN MS MQT at the National Qigong Association Annual conference in August and the National Wellness Conference in Stevens Point, WI in July. It was well received. Research supporting qigong’s effects of perceived stress levels, sleeping, blood pressure, and weight loss was also presented.

Qigong like Tai Chi is extremely effective exercise yet it is very simple and easy to learn. It includes simple flowing movements, deep breathing and a meditative focus. Qigong is recommended by Harvard Medical School, Mayo Clinic, Oprah’s Dr Oz, and the National Council on Aging. It has been found to be extremely helpful for people of all ages but especially for seniors.

Qigong stimulates the relaxation response in the body. It can help slows the aging process and reverse the effects of chronic stress on the body. It is can help almost every chronic disease as it decreases inflammation in the body and returns the body to a normal healing state. Qigong has been shown to improve hypertension and decreases the incidence of stroke, reduce osteoarthritis knee pain, promote general health and strengthening, improve memory and prevent falls helping to keep seniors in their homes longer.
