Qigong Healing - Feng Shui for the Body, Needle-less Acupuncture

One can see Qi Healing as acupuncture without needles. Qi healing is a non-invasive, all natural, gentle way of getting healthy. Qi treatments balance the Qi strength and flow. Once the Qi is in harmony, the body is awakened to recognize the areas of the body that need attention. Qi then facilitates the body’s innate healing mechanisms to nurture these areas of the body to become healthier.

Qi or Chi,

“life force” or “energy that sustains living beings”, is believed to flow through the human body. The Chinese consider all illnesses, both physical and mental, as a result from irregularity in the flow of Qi. In a healthy person, Qi flows along the Qi meridians freely and smoothly. When Qi becomes imbalanced, disease and illness begin to take form. Traditional Chinese medicine, one of the oldest medical disciplines in the world, strives to keep the flow of Qi balanced, increases the levels of Qi and make sure that the Qi remains strong. Treatments are, therefore, aimed to find and correct the source of the imbalance.

In respect to the onset of body aches and pains associated with the aging process, Chinese doctors may attribute that to Qi blockages caused by old injuries. For example, a senior citizen’s constant ache and stiffness in his knee would be explained in the West as possibly caused by the “bum knee tore in high school during the football game." A Western doctor would usually tell this old man to take Ibuprofen or Aspirin to ease the pain. A Chinese doctor would say that the knee was mostly healed and that it worked fine while the man was young when his Qi flow was still strong. However, now that he is old, his Qi flow is slower and that it gets stuck at the site of his old injury. Treatments would be prescribed to strengthen the Qi and improve the Qi flow. One way of strengthening the Qi and improving the Qi flow is through the practice of Qigong.

Qigong is an ancient art of cultivating Qi. With guidance and practice, Qi energy can be emanated from a Qigong practitioner for destructive or healing purposes. Emitting Qi energy for healing is the essence of Qi healing, which is also known as Qigong treatment, external Qigong, external Qi treatment, and Qi therapy.

In a typical Qi healing session, Qi flow, Qi strength and Qi blockages are first evaluated by the healer. Then during the actual healing, Qi is transferred from the healer’s hand to the receiver to increase Qi strength, drive away negative Qi, unblock Qi stagnation and direct Qi flow. Acupressure and healing aides are also used to facilitate the restoration of the proper Qi flow, and will be prescribed to individuals for them to help maintain the proper Qi flow.

Testimonials
 

“I had severely torn my anterior cruciate ligament of my knee and had several extensive reconstructive knee surgeries. I was told that I would have no chance of full recovery. I had spoken to Kendall (Kendall Gill, ex NBA basketball player), and he strongly recommended I try Qi therapy with Craig and Silvia. I had no idea what Qi-therapy was. And when they told me it was painless, I became extremely skeptical. I thought, just like an effective medicine should taste bad, an effective therapy had to hurt. It was really weird, I was nervous to begin with and naturally quite skeptical. During the treatment, my leg was to remain motionless. I was always taught that with connective tissue injuries, movement of a joint was essential. Then after one week, things just took off. After 6 months of Qi-therapy, I regained full range of motion, full flexibility, and the injured leg measured 10 percent stronger than the healthy leg. Even today, I do lunges and squats without pain and swelling, and my leg never become a natural barometer.”

-----------  Heather (Singalewitch) Endre, ranked 16th best gymnast in the US in 1988.

“I was paralyzed from the neck down in a car accident. Craig and Silvia become my Qi healers several months after my accident. The immediate effect of Qi-healing is that it relieved my neurogenic pain (24/7 of pins and needles-like intense pain) and charged me when I was sluggish from medication. I was most intrigued when my inner thighs were ‘beamed’ and how that made my fingers twitch then move, and how by pressing and beaming other points made my legs and ankles move. It told me there was still some sort of connection. I'm amazed, excited and am really happy. I can move my legs, ankles, toes, and several fingers and have internal and external body sensations returning monthly after two years of Qi healing and acupuncture. I switched from a power-chair to a manual wheel chair.”

“Before I came for a Qi treatment, I feel like there is no energy passing through me, I feel very off and drained.  After the first treatment, I feel more alive, I can feel the energy flow, and I am more in tune with what's going on and with my clients. I have no problem in pin pointing their problems. If clients have something wrong with their backs, I can find it in five minutes. Same with a knee problem, I can find the source of the problem. Just the treatment really opened up my Qi and made me more connected to what is going on in my client's bodies. So having better Qi flow makes finding the problem easier and providing better (Massage) treatments to my clients.”

“The jewelry it helped me with the wrist. The jewelry had helped me with my Qi flowing out. Kind of stopped the back flow and bad Qi coming back. I don’t feel as drained throughout the day when I wear the bracelet. I have been wearing the bracelet working with a private client of mine, about 71 years old, had back surgery, knee problems. Doctors told him he has muscle atrophy. So, he’s afraid of being put into a wheel chair. So we work towards trying to help him to strengthen his muscles. We were able to re-fire some of the signals. So now he’s beginning to get the muscle tone back to his body. I definitely think that by me being having my qi flow smoothly, it helped me be more in tune to where the problem was. Having better Qi flow makes finding the problems easier and treatments better.”

"I have Cystic Fibrosis. Before learning Qigong I only knew what I read from books, and I wanted to learn because it's known for improving your health and I needed to know. After six months of learning I can breath deeper, it helps in the morning to get things moving and it calms me down.”

----------  Luke Bidwell, Reigate England

"Since learning (Qigong), Luke’s health has definitely improved. Before he had an awful cough that worried me sick, now it's almost gone. His bad acne is clearing up. He was always very lethargic yet now his general attitude has changed, more motivated, positive, and happier in himself and he tells me how good he feels.  I'm also learning. I don't get as many colds, and feel healthier, happier, energized."
