Qigong Meridian Therapy (QMT) has its roots and origins in the ancient principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which is several thousand years old. It is based on the concept of “Qi” or vital energy, the closest translation. “Qi” is the unseen life force that courses through the body along “meridians” or energy pathways.  This Qi allows the body to perform its many functions through the organs, enabling the blood to circulate. There are 12 major meridians which create a network of communication and energy. When everything is running smoothly we feel good, have energy and vitality. The flow of Qi can become stagnated, deficient or unbalanced. This happens from excessive stress, an injury,  such as viruses, extreme changes in the weather are several of the most common causes.

When we feel good and we are healthy, we are in harmony within our body, spirit and mind. When we feel discomfort in our body, mind, spirit, we are out of balance. Having balanced Qi means having good health, a strong immune system.

Through receiving a QMT, energy blockages are removed Qi is stimulated, balanced or harmonized and internal healing is encouraged. It is executed on a table fully clothed. The therapist, who maintains their Qi through a strong Qigong practice, uses special hand techniques along the meridians and acupoints of the body. After a session, many clients feels deep relaxation as well as an increase in their energy. If you are receiving any other therapies, this is an excellent support for healing. For instance, if you are seeing an acupuncturist, Dr of TCM, this would be an added boost and support to the acupuncture and herbal remedies the client is receiving. If you are seeing a Western Physician, Dentist or any other therapy, this would also be an added bonus. In a stress-filled life a QMT is a great way to destress. A QMT is a wonderful boost for anyone wanting to maintain balanced Qi.

I studied for two years in China town with a Dr. of TCM and a Taoist Qigong Master.
