Qigong, a 3,000-year-old Chinese practice, regulates the body's energy flow through deep breathing, gentle movement, and muscle-strengthening exercises. It induces relaxation, builds stamina, strengthens immunity, improves muscle conditioning, and reduces anxiety and depression. The technique enhances awareness of joint and movement senses and brings healing by regulating energy throughout the body. It also produces regenerating effects through emotional and mental relaxation. Today, Qigong is used globally for treating work- and stress-related musculoskeletal disorders, while its meditative aspects promote peace of mind and spirituality, and vigorous forms include martial arts.
