Our Qigong Courses for Clinicians are taught at the prestigious UK College of Qigong, known for its authentic teachings. We offer the highest calibre training to post graduate Healthcare Practitioners in the United Kingdom. There is something in our Clinical Qigong Courses to suit everyone interested in empowering patients to stay well.
When you successfully complete our Clinial Qigong Courses you will understand the vast difference between Clinical Qigong and Qigong for health which is a set of exercises used for general health and wellness purposes. You will know with absolute certainty, for example, that in general Qigong a typical Spleen exercise would maintain healthy Qi within the Spleen and Stomach. However, in Clinical Qigong Therapy, a patient’s Spleen syndrome could present as a ‘Shi‘ type (Damp/Cold) or a ‘Xu‘ type (deficiency/sinking), in which case the Clinical Qigong Practitioner would decide whether a purgation or tonification prescription would be more appropriate.
The success of your Clinical Qigong Therapy relies on an accurate evaluation so that the correct healing Protocols can be administered. For Eastern and Western Clinicians, you will already be knowledgeable about this process as you already engage in a one to one with your patients.
Clinical Qigong is recognised as one of the four branches of Chinese Medicine – acupuncture, herbal medicine, and tui na being the others. It is said that Clinical Qigong formed the energetic foundation from which the other modalities originated. Acupuncturists, there is something familiar; almost a spiritual ‘knowing’ that you have walked this path before. Not surprising then, that Clinical Qigong incorporates ancient concepts such as Daoism, Buddhism and Shamanism. Use your knowledge to evaluate the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual body. Empower your patients to stay well for longer.
No! We have had many Acupuncturists with either TCM, Japanese to Worsley styles complete our courses. The aim is not to take anything away from what you have been taught; more our Qigong Courses for Clinicians are an adjunct to your existing work However, those Clinicians trained in the Five Elements will love our teachings as it is key to living with the Seasons. We have also received positive feedback that the ‘spiritual’ aspect of our teachings is welcomed as this component is often missed in Western Acupuncture training.
