5.0 out of 5 stars
Do you want to learn effective Qigong, get to the roots of Qigong in this fantastic book.,
This review is from: Medical Qigong Exercise Prescriptions: A Self-Healing Guide for Patients & Practitioners (Paperback)
Medical Qigong Exercise Prescriptions: This small book contains more valuable information about medical qigong than most books two to three times its size. It is concise, well-written, and accomplishes what it sets out to do, which is to introduce the reader to the theory and practice of medical qigong. Anyone who reads this book will be able to put it to immediate use and begin practicing exercises specifically designed for their particular health issues.

4.0 out of 5 stars
a bit hyped,
By SirFrancisDashwood (High Wycombe) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Medical Qigong Exercise Prescriptions: A Self-healing Guide for Patients & Practitioners (Hardcover)
This is a good introduction but not as good as the rave reviews would really have you believe. This isn't a five-star book. Some parts of the text could do with some illustrations. Much of the info in here is available in Jerry Alan Johnson's books so it would really need something new or a new approach or inspired layout to lift it into the five star all-time classic category. Still not to bad but not worth all the hoopla from her colleagues.

Medical Qigong Exercise Prescriptions,
This review is from: Medical Qigong Exercise Prescriptions: A Self-Healing Guide for Patients & Practitioners (Paperback)
It was not detailed enough or provided illustrations , both are needed to provide education for patients.
