OCTCM’s Medical Qigong Certificate is a postgraduate certificate course designed for Acupuncturists and TCM practitioners who wish to better integrate the practice and principles of qigong into their clinical practice. It is a comprehensive program including theory, practice and clinical application.

Starting Fall of 2022 we will offer this in a weekend intensive format approximately 1 weekend per month for one year or 2-3 courses each term. September courses include:

COURSE DESCRIPTION - QIG-801 | theory and classics

This course introduces the fundamental theory, classical literature and practice of traditional Chinese qigong exercises for health and longevity. Students gain a direct personal experience of the concept of qi cultivation and it’s development and use in TCM as a foundation for their ongoing practices, personal well-being, and eventual healing applications.

COURSE DESCRIPTION - QIG-802 | Qigong Self-Cultivation I

This course teaches fundamental qigong exercises of both moving and stationary styles. Students learn to become deeply aware of their own qi and how to use it to remain centered and relaxed, to cleanse and disperse stagnant qi, and to build their reserves. Students learn how to integrate alignment, breathing, awareness, and form into a self-practice routine to promote balance and well-being.
