Research

After a year of experimentation together with Officina Salute Onlus we have verified the effectiveness of Taijiquan and Qigong in patients affected by Parkinson’s Disease. This illness has negative effects on postural stability and walking, two subjects which are covered in the fundamental principles of Taijiquan. The addition of Qigong exercises contributes to a deeper sense of proprioception and a state of relaxation, both of which are useful to people affected by this disease. Initial results have been excellent.
