Here are links to various research articles related to the use of COVID-19 alternative health treatments of Qigong and Tai Chi. These studies explore the potential benefits of practices such as Qigong and Tai Chi on immunity and overall well-being during the pandemic.
One study found that practicing Qigong can improve immune function in individuals who have recovered from COVID-19. The study also found that Qigong can improve lung function and reduce anxiety and depression in these individuals.
Another study explored the potential benefits of Tai Chi on individuals with COVID-19. The study found that practicing Tai Chi can improve immune function, reduce inflammation, and enhance overall well-being in individuals with the virus.
In addition to these studies, we provide links to articles exploring the benefits of mindfulness practices on mental health during the pandemic. These practices can help to reduce stress and anxiety and promote overall well-being during this challenging time.
Overall, these research articles suggest that practices such as Qigong and Tai Chi can have numerous benefits for immunity, lung function, and overall well-being during COVID-19. Mindfulness practices can also be a useful tool for promoting mental health and reducing stress and anxiety during this challenging time. These practices can be practiced safely at home and can contribute to overall wellness during the pandemic.
This study offers an effective intervention that can be delivered under pandemic conditions to improve psychoemotional state, cognition, and motor learning in older adults.
Some of the benefits of Tai Chi practice for individuals coping with COVID-19 are outlined here. Benefits include immune system promotion, inflammation response reduction, rehabilitation in pulmonary function, and emotional improvement.
Qigong has the potential to play a role in the prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of respiratory infections, such as COVID-19.
The authors comprehensively analyzed the etiology and pathogenesis of COVID-19 based on the theory of TCM, and discussed its syndrome differentiation, treatment and prevention measures so as to provide strategies and reference for the prevention and treatment with TCM.
The trial will recruit 186 hospital patients with mild and general symptoms of COVID-19 pneumonia from 19th February to 31st July 2020. Diagnosis will follow the criteria of the National Health Commission & State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnostic and Treatment Protocol for Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia (The 7th Trial Version).
Programs of moderate intensity aerobic exercise and light exercise may have similar effects on blood pressure in previously sedentary older individuals. If additional trials confirm these results, promoting light intensity activity could have substantial public health benefits as a means to reduce blood pressure in older aged persons.
