What is Medical Qigong?

Widely understood in China but little known in the West, medical qigong is a modality of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Medical qigong is a way of affecting and directing qi, or the life force, for medical benefit. Rather than using needles, herbs or massage, medical qigong relies on the ability to direct qi with the mind, the hands or a ritual object but without the necessity of touching the body. Like its better known counterparts, acupuncture, Reiki, Quantum-Touch and herbal medicine, medical qigong requires thorough knowledge of TCM scientific theory. To develop skill with medical qigong, a practitioner needs to be highly disciplined with a very focused mind similar to that of a well-seasoned meditation expert. To practice medicine as subtle as medical qigong, a practitioner must have unusual abilities of subtle perception. Ideally, a medical qigong practitioner should also be a Medical Intuitive in order to make the most accurate diagnosis and treatment. Any practitioner's treatment is only as good as his or her diagnosis.

At the Sentient Temple, we teach Shamanic Multidimensional Mind which trains one to become a Medical Intuitive. It is from this foundation that we teach Medical Qigong.

In the perspective of Eastern philosophy, medical qigong is generally explained through a three dimensional convergence. Seeing a physical body as an energetic hologram and observing the physical, mental, emotional, energetic and spiritual aspects of the tissues. By stimulating any one of these five matrices, you affect the other four and influence the body to initiate either health or disease. Diagnosis and treatment is, therefore, approached in a nonlinear progression working towards the health and healing of the WHOLE person.

An analogy may help to clarify this. A Qigong Practitioner has a client who comes to him traveling 300 miles one way every week. Western Medical doctors gave him two months to live. He is in the Air Force and because his doctors were so certain he was gong to die, the Air Force magnanimously paid him his two hundred thousand dollar life insurance policy. Here is something he did not share with his MD’s. He was born in Russia not far from Chernobyl. At two years of age, he was playing in the snow when the nuclear power plant exploded. He now was told he has a tumor in his abdomen the size of a 12 pound pumpkin. His mother found the Qigong Practitioner and brought him to him January 1st.

We are now in April and he is in remission. Qigong looked at him in all dimensions; he treated him emotionally, mentally, internally and physically. Now, his 12 pound tumor is the size of a lemon, less than a pound. He accepts the presence of the Universal Life Force and the Power of the Source. He arrives in pain and leaves without it. That is the bottom line. That’s the power of Medical Qigong.

The Western mind is taught to view the physical body in a linear progression of cause and affect. Traditional medicine separates the reactions of the tissues from the effect of the mind and emotions and from the universal and environmental influences.

More than 5000 years ago, Chinese physicians came to understand that everything is composed of the same energetic substance called "Qi" (Chee). These ancient masters concluded that there is a oneness and a wholeness in all existence and that energetically everything is interconnected as one body although energy may take on many different forms. All things in nature and in fact, all things in the universe are woven together so that we are, quite literally, all symbiotically one with the universe, one thought, the system of Qi. Qi is always in motion within all things and is the catalyst for everything to interrelate within the universe.

In modern times, the laws of physics have demonstrated that matter and energy are interchangeable and that matter is simply another form of energy. Matter is constantly vibrating in the form of tangible, altering gases, being affected by or interacting with energy. Energy is inherent in the living human body and the human body is sustained by energy.

The ancients mastered techniques to balance the bodies energy Qi in order to live in harmony with the environmental (earth) Qi and the universal (heavenly) Qi. Traditional Chinese Medicine maintains that when living things begin to lose their Qi, they lose their vitality. The Ancient Chinese believed that "Life comes into beginning because Qi is amassed; when Qi is scattered, the person dies."

We work with the Qi pools that each of us hold. We connect those pools with the Source and the Universal Life Force. The ancient masters observed that Qi can be divided into five manifestations of matter: energy: mineral, plant, animal, human, and divine. Each form draws on the energy of the next, resonating and interacting with the divine through the form's relationship in Wuji (infinite space). When we bring your vibratory Life Force up to what is required to heal, send cancer into remission, turn fibromyalgia around, stop lupus, control diabetes, end chronic pain, we are Qigong Medical Practitioners.
