Qigong, a traditional therapeutic technique without any surgery or drugs, allows one to regulate and optimize the functions of their body and internal organs by relaxing and entering a state of mental tranquility.

Qigong could be interpreted to be an exercise which is initiated by our spirit and based on our energy. It optimizes the mechanism of our life organs, strengthens our self-control, and develops our physical potentials. People practice Qigong to experience a spiritual interaction with Mother Nature and to feel how indispensable they are as a part of it. In short, Qigong is one of the very important components of human physical science. “Qi", literally means "air" in Chinese language, reminding us of the air that comes in and out of our body. However, the "Qi" in Qigong means a lot more than merely the air we breathe.
