Is qigong just a placebo? What about tai chi? What is a placebo anyway? And how does self-healing really work?
These are questions that I addressed in a live broadcast on Facebook.

I’m Anthony Korahais, and I used qigong (pronounced "chee gung") to heal from clinical depression, low back pain, anxiety, and chronic fatigue. Today, I'm the director of Flowing Zen, an international organization with students in 48 counties. I've been teaching qigong since 2005, I've served on the board for the National Qigong Association, and I’ve helped thousands of people to use qigong for their own stubborn health challenges. If you're ready to get started with qigong, there's no better way than my best selling book, which comes with free videos and meditations. The sooner you read my book, the sooner you can start healing! Click here to see my book on Amazon.
Hi Sifu,
Thank you for getting my password working again. My history with you is proof positive Qigong is NOT a placebo. When I came to your studio 3 years ago I in my early 80’s with health baggage of chronic low back and neck pain Lessened by 1976 surgery, 2012 diagnosis of arthritic knees that required immediate left knee replacement which could be delayed by injections, stomach and bowl problems including acid re-flux (started daily medication for life; my chiropractor said would eventually damage my immune system)
Today at age 86 I have been TOTALLY low back and neck pain free for over one year with no further chiropractic monthly adjustments, NO stomach or bowl problems and 95% improvement in knee problems ( walk 6 flights of stairs daily and begin my days with a minimum of 15 minutes of Qigong)
It never ceases to amaze me at how stupid we humans can be. By August 2017 I was doing over one hour of Qigong every day and the knees were back to 100% healthy- then the hurricanes started hitting Florida and I let that interrupt my focus. With life’s interruptions I FELL-OFF the wagon (and have recently realized it is a Chariot) I “woke-up” in December realizing I had gone weeks with zero Qigong and now needed a cane to walk. Concentrated on re-building Qi in my system and soon got rid of the cane. I was back on our Chariot. Hopefully I’m smart enough not to fall off but at least I know our Chariot is always there, patiently waiting.
Thank you Sifu, Merry Christmas to you and yours
