Health and exercise experts advise that an exercise program
for people with arthritis should incorporate exercises that
improve muscular strength, flexibility, and stamina or fitness.
Tai Chi is proven to improve all of these components, as well
as having additional health benefits. Tai Chi improves relaxation,
balance, posture and immunity.
Muscle strength is important for supporting
and protecting joints, which will reduce pain. Flexibility
exercises also help to reduce pain and stiffness, enabling
you to move easier. Stamina or fitness is important for overall
health and proper function of your heart, lungs and muscles.
Tai Chi facilitates the flow of Qi through
your body. Qi is the life energy that circulates throughout
the body, performing many functions to maintain good health.
Practicing tai chi helps to strengthen your Qi, therefore
improving your health.
