Tai Chi Can Benefit Healing For Cancer Patients

The practice of Tai Chi has been shown to be beneficial to patients dealing with cancer. Recent studies have shown that tai chi has physical benefits for patients of cancer. These include improved balance and stamina, relaxed deeper breathing, and helping with the reduction of stress.

Below is a video from TV channel WIBW in Topeka, Kansas, looks at an exercise class that features Tai Chi for cancer patients.

“It’s kind of a flip from what a lot of people think of as exercise. It’s a slow; it’s rhythmic; it’s kind of continuous movement,” explained instructor Linda Gray, who is a two-time cancer survivor herself. “I got range of motion back personally in my neck through this so I know it works.”
