Course Overview

Tai Chi and Qigong

Tai chi and qigong is regularly promoted in the media and recommended in the physical activity guidelines in the UK and other countries. Research supports its use for a range of health conditions.

Too often we see tai chi and qigong presented uncritically as a panacea without an understanding of underlying mechanisms and the need for adaption to suit different populations.

This course will address those misconceptions and help you navigate the research on tai chi and qigong so you and your patients can get the most from this promising but often misunderstood movement modality.
