This third edition is now in three distinct parts for ease of use and greater clarity. The first section A Theoretical Approach summarises the Chinese physiological theory of vital energy that underlies Chi Kung and then goes on to provide a Western physiological understanding of its mechanisms and how it benefits health. To counter the mystique which often surrounds this ancient practice, the authors avoid the heavily esoteric or pseudo-scientific approach of some current explanations. The second section A Practical Approach offers some basic Chi Kung warm up exercises suitable to highlight the previous theory in a practical way. The simple exercises can provide a short but useful daily routine. Section three A Scientific / Evidence-Based Approach examines the traditional understanding of Chi Kung and its benefits in light of analysis of scientific research into the theory and efficacy of Chi Kung.The text provides a useful reference for beginners and experienced practitioners of Chi Kung, teachers and health professionals.
