Abstract
At the author's clinic, patients are instructed on body movement (medical yoga) which uses traditional yoga for the purposes of improving blood and lymph fluid flows, and correcting the spinal cord for patient's functional maintenance and conditional improvement. The possibility of mastering external Qi-gong by using medical yoga was examined and the findings are reported here. Eight patient cases were examined in which they performed medical yoga. Skin surface temperature changed. The stability of the arms and the posture increased when patients became conscious of the Qi passing through them and they recognized the feeling of Qi. The BP level obtained by AMI measurements increased. And the patients who received Qi from the examiner also recognized the feeling of Qi. From these data, it was thought that performing medical yoga even 1 time made it possible to master external Qi-gong.
