Instant pain relief? Qigong's quick results are what you've been searching for!
Looking for instant relief from unresolved orthopedic pain?
Most of us can relate to being injured and needing relief. But, most people can't relate to chronic pain. Luckily for them!
Once you’ve taken painkillers from your doctor, or had injections, they can offer immediate relief. The problem is when they don’t, or the effects wear off requiring more drugs.
Massage, bodywork and chiropractic is another way to get immediate relief, but the problem arises when they stop working or never work to begin with.
Even when these approaches help to some degree, you’re left relying on these external factors for the immediate pain relief you’re looking for.
This is where (authentic) Qigong shines and separates itself from everything else out there.
Qigong can give you profound relief immediately and can be done anywhere - at home, at work, outside, etc.. It’s safe, has no negative side effects, and is simple enough to learn no matter what you’re struggling with.
It teaches the body to release excess tension due to the discomfort of pain. When things are tense and blood, fluids, and energy don’t flow unobstructed, we feel pain and discomfort.
Qigong teaches us to realign and rebalance the body, promoting and restoring the natural flow of blood, fluids, and energy. This puts us in a parasympathetic mode, allowing the nervous system to relax and inflammation to decrease. Over time, this becomes the new normal.
Qigong also connects us with our body’s intrinsic, natural movement that we were born with. The alignments and principles learned can be applied universally.
Whether you’re cleaning the house, picking up a child, working, giving bodywork, or sitting at a computer, it teaches you how to maintain balance and alignment.
Many start their Qigong practice while on medication, and over time, as the pain heals, less medicine is needed.
Unlike other therapies, including physical therapy, Qigong's purpose is to incorporate alignments, breathing, and movement patterns into everyday activities. This sets the groundwork for sustainable relief.
When I was in my 20s, working as an electrician in New York, I had three cortisone injections into my left wrist and two surgeries. Neither offered lasting relief. Qigong got me out of that hell because it taught me how to readjust and realign my body, alignment, movement patterns, and breathing, which I bring to my day-to-day.
The messed up thing was there wasn’t anything ever wrong with my wrist; the pain was simply a downstream problem from improper posture, breathing and movement.
If you’ve never heard of Qigong, I hope this illuminates it for you, and if you have, perhaps it’s time to give it a try.
Even if you don’t have pain, Qigong will help you avoid future injuries.
