Spring Forest Qigong

Spring Forest Qigong (SFQ), pronounced chee gong, was created by Master Chunyi Lin after years of study of various qigong practices.  Research completed in Asia on various forms of qigong repeatedly demonstrated the benefits of the modality by measuring decreased blood pressure, lipids, pain and anxiety, and by measuring an increase in bone density and white blood cell growth.  SFQ is a simple breathing, meditation, visualization and movement technique.

In one published stateside study, the routine practice of SFQ evidenced reduced symptoms of major depression.  Jane Coleman’s recently completed study of the effects of SFQ on chronic pain provided more evidence of the benefits of SFQ.
