Does conflict a Chi gong practice with my pacemaker and mitral valve

[Guest guest]

Greetings,

 

I often give Qigong exercises as homework and my

clients have reported good results with regulating

blood pressure, palpitations and arrhythmia's.

Assuming you do not have any transplanted organs the

only contraindication that comes to mind is if you are

doing Qigong exercises that aggravate an existing

energetic pattern/imbalance. An example would be if a

person has high blood pressure it's probably best to

avoid Qigong exercises that build energy in the upper

burner or are design to build yang energy because they

could aggravate the condition further.

 

To fully answer your question one would need to know

what Qigong exercises you are doing and what your

current energetic imbalances are (pulse and tongue

assessment).

 

The Qigong Institute has many published medical

studies from China regarding Qigong and a portion of

them can be accessed for free on their website

(qigonginstitute.org).

 

Hope this helps.

Thanks Manu and Chris for your kind answers to my question.

 

I am a lonely practitioner of some classical Chigong exercises taken

mostly from Daniel Reid, Ken Cohen and Lam Kam books and tapes;

those exercises are the Great Taichi Circle, Ba Duan Jin, Embracing

the Tree, and some " passive " Chigong visualizations.

 

I have had two heart surgeries to implant a metal mitral valve and

recently I received a pace maker. By all means I want to stop this

progressive invassive approach to my condition by dedicating ALL the

needed time to a Chigong practice addressed to the improvement of my

heart condition. There is not a single doubt in my mind that a

dedicated Chigong practice can produce outstanding results in

addressing the chi energy wherever is most needed, because I have

seen enough dramatic evidence on the workings of this energy. But I

need to go beyond the general practice I am doing now to shift into

a " taylor made " set of exercises taking into account the specifics

of my cardiopathy for instance as both of you pointed correctly, by

cooling off everything related to the heart and stimulating the

working with the kidneys and low dan-tien. This realm of the

interconnections of the inner organs is foreign for me and in this

area I wish I could find the knowledge and the couching I am missing

now. My problem is that I live in the country side, 3 hours away

from " civilization " and I rely largely on computer communication.

There is little chance for me to have a personal trainer or teacher

because of my remote residence settlings.

 

Let me tell you I have never had a trasplant neither am candidate in

the foreseable future. About my tongue and pulse specs I wonder

how could I provide this information, living where I live, but I

guess I can make a quite acceptable digital shot of my tongue. The

pulse is another thing..... for detecting all the different pulses

TCM deals with I don´t know how could I help you.

 

This is all feed-back I can send now. If you elaborate more on the

possibilities of an specific practice for my heart improvement this

will be always appreciated.

 

All the best,
